Please list evil computer corporations.

[ZombieNixon]

My friends and I came up with a crazy idea for a computer game: a parody of first-person shooters where you storm computer corporations in a vengeful frenzy for the havoc they wreaked upon your world. (:grr:) So far, what we've decided on are Alias and Epic, the makers of Maya and Unreal, the two applications we see far too much of and have grown to hate. So, we're going to destroy their developers. Of course, Microsoft is the final level and Bill Gates, the penultimate boss (the ultimate boss is our classes professor, who is the man behind Gates with a voice like the Polish Richard Nixon, yeah, guess who's going to be doing the voice for him :D)

But anyway, we need more corporations to be destroyed. Who would you like to see demolished on screen? :evilgrin:

1. Apple

They would be just as evil as Microsoft, if only they had the means (i.e. a monopoly).

Sony, not technically a computer corporation, but responsible for much computer evil, particularly their DRM rootkits that appeared on some of their CDs. Okay, that's Sony BMG to be precise.

Intuit Software, makers of the accounting program Quicken are pretty evil too I hear.

3. Hmm...maybe we'll rampage through and destroy the Big Five as well.

4. Apple only supports democrats and makes a working product.

Yeah, real evil.

[billyskank]

7. We're talking about IT industry evil

not Exxon- Enron- destroy-the-world-and-profit-from-it evil.

[ZombieNixon]

8. Yes, sorry, should have clarified.

That's evil in the nerd sense...as in frustrating.

I use a Mac, BTW, but I'd have no problem making Apple headquarters a level in this game. Parody is the order of the day. :)

2. You're complaining about seeing too much Maya?

Unbelievable, you should consider yourselves lucky, ya damn punks

[ZombieNixon]

6. When the professor doesn't know how to use it

and the only way to get through the class is to take an additional class with a different professor who knows what he's talking about with the result that you spend a good 30 hours a week on Maya for both classes only to find out that for the first class you have to export your work to Unreal but Maya totally falls flat on its export capabilities so you have to download a plugin but it won't install on the school servers so you somehow have to find a bootleg copy to use at home because Maya costs thousands of dollars? FUCK Yeah! :nuke:

5. Whoever it was that developed

that Herkestra Tools 20/06 Suite deserves an extra bloody rag doll fragging

9. How did the philosophy paper go?

Or shouldn't I ask?

[ZombieNixon]

10. Well, it got finished.

I won't know how I did until Monday, though. :shrug:

[Initech]

11. Dell

Big advocates of job outsourcing - they must die!

[ZombieNixon]

12. Also, their stuff just sucks.

:D

[Initech]

13. Amen to that!

I had a Dell for four years, I have NEVER had more problems with any computer I've ever owned than with that piece of shit.

[ZombieNixon]

14. Michael Dell is so becoming a boss!

:D

[DS1]

15. Make sure there's a

logo on the back of his neck

[ZombieNixon]

17. OOH! That's be his weak spot!

A shot that hits there does extra damage...or something! :D

[NJ Democrats]

16. Gateway

Our school got them because they have a school discount- Gateway makes some of the shittist stuff I've ever used. Something always goes wrong with them.

[Deja Q]

18. Microsoft, Apple, Epic, Electronic Arts, Nintendo, Sony... um, who ISN'T?

Hey - they all say that people playing computer games is why they offshore.

And it's a waste of energy anyway... there are better ways to entertain one's self.

Less damaging on the nerves too - carpal tunnel, et al.

Well, stop selling the games or get the government to grow a spine and stop these corporate filthfuckers from rotting our budding youth.

Duh.

[LSK]

19. Apple

:hide:












not really, just trying to annoy people :D

[ZombieNixon]

20. Meh...we'll probably put them in there anyway.

Apple's tech support is worthless unless you actually go to an Apple Store. It's so much better to get a care plan through an independent retailer.

21. Computer Associates.

Big, evil, and strangely a low media profile, even with all the investigations.
