Gore Verbinski is a Tool

If my most successful movie was based on a Disney ride which I then poorly cloned into mediocre sequels, I would not be lecturing the video game industry about originality.

“[Games] are giving people like me some hope,” claimed Verbinski, a self-professed gamer. “But now I see that your path is becoming worn. The view is narrowing, and the promise of gaming as a medium can quickly become a disappointment as stasis occurs.

“Already, how many games have you seen that look too similar? How many film enterprises have slapped their logos on inferior [products] because they reacted late, and needed to make a shelf date?”
