Just a reminder that he is a rapist and a pedophile.

You know its bad when Blizzard fans are happy that the company was bought by Microsoft.

Microsoft. And they’re happy.

What a time to be alive.

That said, if Microsoft revived HotS I’d tatoo Bill Gates face on my face. That game is way too good to go out the way it did.

Better than EA (???).

Good riddance. Shame he gets a golden parachute

If he were poor they’d arrest him for that

If he were poor some other member of society would probably have already removed him from the pool.

If that were true my neighborhood would be a ghost town

I guess HAWP called it.

I miss that show. I also miss that era of YouTube.

The board of directors chose to keep him on after this was revealed 2 years ago. They made a statement along the lines of “we stand by him”.

Another reason why piracy is justified. You’re pandering to corporations and lining the wallets of rich douches like Kotick if you’re paying for video games. ^♪
