Randy is full of them. He also lied about winning the name 'Gearbox' in a poker game against Gabe Newell. So Gabe had to go with Valve. It was a complete lie.

As for more;
- Gamergate
- People whining when Bayonetta 2 was saved by Nintendo
- John Romero is going to make you his bitch
- Any '8/10' review controversy

Gamergate

This is undeniably in the top 3; it was pathetic on both sides & refused to die out for months.
Any '8/10' review controversy

Twilight Princess & The Last of Us certainly come to mind here - especially Twilight Princess, considering both its review score was actually closer to 9.0 than 8.0 & how polarized it ended up being.

They made this hilariously cheesy video to promote their team (omg all girls!) and by the time the video was uploaded the team had already disbanded.

Good on them for leaving the video up, I would be way too embarrassed.

How about he hear some pathetic quotes from the big three.
Ken Kutaragi from Sony;
"If you consider the PlayStation 3 a toy, then yes, it is an expensive toy. However, it is more than a toy. It is a PlayStation 3. And it is the only PlayStation 3. I hope that those who understand this will gladly purchase it."

On the definition of PS3: "The PS3 is not a game machine. We've never once called it a game machine...With the PS3, our intentions have been to create a machine with supercomputer calculation capabilities for home entertainment."

On the price of PS3 again: "It's probably too cheap... If you can have an amazing experience, we believe price is not a problem."

"We want consumers to think to themselves 'I will work more hours to buy one.' We want people to feel that they want it, irrespective of anything else."

On the potential of PS2 (yes, PS2): "You can communicate to a new cybercity... This will be the ideal home server. Did you see the movie The Matrix? Same interface. Same concept. Starting from next year, you can jack into The Matrix!"


Yamauchi from Nintendo
I have been saying this for some time, but customers are not interested in grand games with higher-quality graphics and sound and epic stories. Only people who do not know the videogame business would advocate the release of next-generation machines when people are not interested in cutting-edge technologies.

[People who play RPGs are] "depressed gamers who like to sit alone in their dark rooms and play slow games."


And of course the whole lead up to the Xbox One fiasco

"We have a product for people who can't connect to the internet. Xbox 360"
[In response to living in a state with bad internet] "Why on Earth would I live there?"

While there's been far dumber things said and done, I think I'll have to give it to the Xbone's debut because this was one of the "big 3" fucking up so monumentally it probably was the go-ahead to Sony to start ripping everyone off by forcing them to pay to play online too.

And this also includes the fanboys and shills who were defending it.

Yeah, the video's pretty comprehensive about the finer points of how he did it. (The first guy was way easier to prove as faked but I'm including it here anyway because he was still given official recognition for years).
