The point was simple, everything these tardbang journalist and animal right's activist are complaining about are baseless childish rants.
They were all part of Greek Mythology and went along with the THEME of the party.
*no goat was harmed for the sake of this party*
If your and adult and you get invited to an adult party, expect to see adult oriented things.
GROW UP!!!!!!
(that message is not to anybody here, but for the fools that think this was actually wrong)

As an animal rights activitst, I happen to think it was wrong. Guess I need to grow up, go play dress up and hang around a dead goat.
Try to understand this:
Party with people dressed up as Gods and topless women feeding them grapes WITH dead goat = Themed party
Party with people dressed up as Gods and topless women feeding them grapes WITHOUT dead goat = Themed party
Yes, at least Sony got a goat that was already dead, but it is still stupid to have a headless goat on a table as a centerpiece. If they really wanted to go along with the mythology they should have all dove in and ate it. Instead they used it as a prop.
it5five, you were not invited, and were not directly/indirectly affected, so why is this wrong?
I understand hwy you don't like it, but that is life, you gonna gain something from complaining?
I'm not tryring to provoke you here, but understand, you may not like gay porn/sex, but it happens everyday.
Will complaining make it better, or make it disappear.
To each his own.
Also, are you a vegetarian? just curious.

So I have to be invited to the party to believe that using a dead goat as a prop is wrong? Look, I'm not trying to make this into a big deal. I hate those loud in your face vegetarians that shove their opinion in everyones face. If somebody else eats meat, I don't mind, and I don't go around advertising the fact that I'm a vegetarian. If someone asks, I'll tell, but otherwise I just let people eat what they want without getting a lecture about it.
I just think it's stupid to have the dead goat as a prop. If they really wanted to use "mythology" as an excuse, they should have been eating the goat. Also I'm pretty sure that even though they returned it to the butcher, the thing isn't safe for consumption anymore since it was lying on a table at a party. So instead that goat being killed for food, it was killed to be used as prop.
No.......you have every right to believe it is wrong, but that doesn't make it wrong.
I agree Sony could have done something more thoughtful to those who hold similar beliefs as you(not necessarily the same beliefs), but they had every right to do what they did, and the negative PR is rather absurd.
It was an adult oriented party with an adult oriented theme, and I am sure everybdoy that was invited rather enjoyed it.
Its the people that want to make headlines that are making a big fuss, or people that are easily offended.
They are not gonna sleep at night now, and Sony owes them retribution for the harm they casued.
(yes there are wack-jobs out there that really believe this too)
I apologize if my statement abotu animal rights offended you, as it was not meant to.
I also appreciate you position, as it is your choice.
HOWEVER, that does not negate the point that the whole thing(negative PR) is rather childish.
I could go around blasting everybody for not believing what I believe, but thats called blamestorming, and is counterproductive.
I have nothing against anybody that does not agree with what happened, but I do think its childish to make a big public fuss about it.

And you're the guy telling people to grow up in this thread
Almost as hypocritical as the SDF people saying Nintendo makes too many sequels.Also, Nintendo have done similar events like this when?
its a release party jimmi, if you don't understand why they did it, you never will ffs.
btw - GoW2 owns your soul, and is owning all other US software titles.

I agree that it was made out to be a much bigger deal than it actually is.
You didn't offend me with the animal rights comments. It usually takes a lot more than that for me to get upset about something someone says.
Haha, way to miss what I said. Way to go, indeed!
My message was in direct relaliation to what you said about "If Nintendo does something similar in the future". Not about press events as a whole. You'd have thought you might have understood that since I directly quoted you. Ho hum.
"Hello world."
I never told anybody here to grow up either........can you just stop now.
Nintendo doesn't throw parties(themed or not)? Why the **** would they do something like that!
I like how the world over it's an army of people against this and the little SDF fanboys trying to make it all okay.
Course Nintendo do themed parties. They just released Pokemon in NYC with a big event. Did they think it wise to fight real animals for the event? no.

your unctuous exaggerations will not work jimmi......i really don't care.
this is sad and childish, and this type of news is propagated by fan boys not defended by them.
I'm sitting here trying to bring you back to level, but you are getting out there man.
btw - I didn't know there were REAL animals in POKEMON mythology.......
SACRAFICING GOATS IS PART OF GREEK MYTHOLOGY - get it yet?
anywho this is a tireless circle - most get my point.......others still don't, either way, I'm done.
