I am photosensitive and photophobic..... I am lucky enough not to suffer siezures (yet).


However, I do apreciate it when TV, Films & games atleast warn me or cut that un-neaded flashing crap out.


Oh wow... look, pretty flashing patterns.... BORING... we ain't all Japanese school kids liking that crap!

i like flashing things.

The only flashing things I like are girls with big boobies :)

shit is rich?

^ Have you actualy tried it?

I think this stems back to some kids having freakouts during Pokemon episodes in Japan back in the late 90's.

I wish a game would be pretty enough to put me into a seizure.

^ EXACTLY

^Just hope it never happens to you as you may change your view point!

Fuckin hell, what does a guy need to do to experience a seizure for once in his life around here?

Well, this is a rather important reason to delay the game. If it's failing these tests so miserably, then it's a big issue.

I'm glad they take these kinds of measures. Imagine if you where a gamer, and all of the sudden you find out you got epilepsy, and you cant play them anymore.

Are there pokemons inside!?

Hey, look, Wipeout!!!

^ @ milescosmo... Wow, you are very retarded... Have you read any of this thread?

A bad example maybe but..... You can put a warning sign on Alcohol, but the same sign will be on one that is only 4% in volume and one that is 75% in volume. Now if the percentage was not being displayed you would not realise which was stronger and more dangerous (well you would by the taste, but it is different comparing taste to light as by the time an epileptic sees the lights its too late...so for the purpose of comparison say you had to drink a pint regardless of taste with no percentage wrote... just a warning that it contains alcohol which may or maty not get you drunk). One would have little effect whilst the other would knock you out on your back blind drunk.


There is no reason why any game (or media) should be 'over the top' with such stuff that can cause an epileptic fit (which can be life threatening). It is simply undeeded and does nothing to make a game any better at all.


milescosmo, If you have a kid and he had a fit once whilst watching TV or playing a computer game with over the top flashing, then would you really tell him he could no longer watch ANY TV or play ANY computer games for the rest of his life? OR, would you blame that one tv programme or game that also set off thousands of other kids at the same time?.

Grow the fuck up you tool.

Someone at Beyond3D (Kanyamagufa) was talking about this being a possible reason before the story broke {Jul 18} (one of those a friend of a friend type deals). But the the top dogs there seem to have pause w/ it being legit enough to warrant that long of a delay. Speculation is it's the multiplayer that's causing the biggest problem.
