SVU video game episodes are the best

and by best I mean LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL

any suspect related to video gaming will do shit like ignore a kid living under the stairs in favor of their virtual child, say shit like "Whoa, pause the game!" instead of "wait a minute" during an interrogation, taunt other characters by saying things like "bang bang you're dead" (what are you, six?)

my favorite part is this episode where they had a fake second life

one of the users had kidnapped a woman in real life, but his in-game avatar had a cabin by a replica of some lake, and so they figured out that if they could find the fake cabin in the game they could find the real one in real life

so get this, for some reason the developer couldn't just tell them where the cabin was, they had to change the time of day in the game world so they could see which direction the sun was rising from, so they could figure out where the cabin was in the game, and the dev hesitated to do it because "we've never done this before, you're about to freak out 2 million people" or some such nonsense

it was IMPRESSIVELY dumb

I remember that episode.

And he kidnapped the girl because she looked like some old teenager he fell in love when he was younger.

It probably will be more about women then video games

So exactly like GG itself

 

[Valkrai]

I think this COULD be a good thing? Maybe? I'm definitely worried about the stereotypes that may come from this.

[Cartman86]

Wish The Good Wife had been able to get to this before Law & Order. They kind of already have over the years.

 

[Arttemis]

"Detective Tutuola (Ice-T) investigates the crime but Raina refuses to delay the launch, and the cops must "level up" to protect her"

....

Pretty much. SMH.

 

[XiaNaphryz]

....

So your average portrayal of gaming in television then.

Obligatory link:

NCIS writers trying to make gamers heads explode through dialogue

Some old classics there including:

 

[ActuallyHulk]

I can already guess the one liners

"Do they think this is a GAME?"

"Seems like this person going for a high... Score"

"I need all the information you can get me on this Waifu person. Where does she live?"

 

[Htown]

"Detective Tutuola (Ice-T) investigates the crime but Raina refuses to delay the launch, and the cops must "level up" to protect her"



Pretty much. SMH.

get ready to hear that kind of stuff all through the episode

 

[jello44]

I can see this ending well.

The internet isn't going to be a place I want to be when this airs, I wouldn't be able to combat the stupid.

oh shit

Can't wait for the NES era bleeps and bloops while they play Mario 3D World with an Xbox controller

[Inuhanyou]

Ugh.

Can't wait to be unfairly targeted in the media because there are asshats out there.

 

[lil]

Whaaaat?

Well, we all know what the outcome of this will be. No matter what, Gators will try to convince us all it's not reaaally about GG.

[Northeastmonk]

Hopefully this is not as accurate as the PC gaming talk on NCIS...

According to that idea we're all some sort of mace wielding demon slayer playing a dungeon MMO and all our menus are bright red and green letters that mention "death".

They'll probably hire actors to play cosplayers. The video game will be probably be some offbrand animation. I guess it represents gaming? but this means gaming is a giant melting pot. It's beyond the reservation at GameStop.

Memory cards and console stickers have led us all to this.

 

[JayEH]

Damn. Look what they did now.

 

[VibratingDonkey]

This will surely be some sort of ungodly disaster.

Just do a search on Youtube for "NCIS 16 core" and you'll find it.

"Its game over for you pal!"

 

[Northeastmonk]

"Its game over for you pal!"

"You can "reserve" the next seat in jail buddy!"

 

[andymcc]

Ugh.

i doubt it will affect someone that simply plays video games, just ruffle the feathers of gamergaters...

 

[AmyS]

the cops must "level up" to protect her.

 

[Canucked]

"Its game over for you pal!"

Okay, that has to happen.

 

[Piston Hyundai]

"You can "reserve" the next seat in jail buddy!"

The only game you're going to be playing is "Don't Drop the Soap," punk.

 

[sturgboski]

Ah Law and Order picking a topic in the news and running with it. I'm sure it will be amazing as their track record across all variants has been nothing short of spotless for understanding gaming, technology and the like. I mean their take on violent video games affecting a killer utilized a game where you drive a car, get out, and beat a hooker to death to take her purse. Exactly like GTA.

Ah, anyway, I haven't watched the show since Stabler left. How is it?

Also, with all the recent shit games getting glowing reviews from the media, I really wish an adult conversation could be had on that. One that doesnt devolve into abject horror.

 

[Welfare]

Well then, my Law and Order night just got more interesting.

Ah, anyway, I haven't watched the show since Stabler left. How is it?

It's still pretty good. Prefer the older episodes though.

 

[Coffee Dog]

Hahaha

This sounds hilarious

SVU is hilarious

 

[JDSN]

"Ice T: Achievement Unlocked: 25 years to life."

I think this COULD be a good thing? Maybe? I'm definitely worried about the stereotypes that may come from this.

There is no stereotype, no matter how absurd and comically evil it is that they will use that doesnt exist in reality, rape deniers, truthers, holocaust deniers, white supremacists, fat bumbling assholes downplaying harassment, this are some of the leaders of the movement and also "gamers". So in that sense maybe Leigh Alexander is right, because I identify myself as a fan of video games, but never a "gamer".

 

[Hobbestetrician]

Haha, knew this would happen eventually. Hyped.

Out of all of this the whole "do the research" like continues to baffle me the most. Like...what do they expect us to find? What is our research going to uncover?

 

[Darksol]

This will likely be shit, even by Law & Order standards. I can't wait.

 

[ElNarez]

Ugh.

Can't wait to be unfairly targeted in the media because there are asshats out there.

yeah man it must really suck being unfarily targeted with hate for no reason

 

[BreezyLimbo]

Please tell me this wasn't real. I'm dying over here..I can't..help me CSI serial killer IP tracker

 

[andymcc]

Out of all of this the whole "do the research" like continues to baffle me the most. Like...what do they expect us to find? What is our research going to uncover?

it's like applying the logic of Sons of Liberty to real life.

"You can "reserve" the next seat in jail buddy!"

"I know some guys in cell block D that'll blow in your cartridge!"

 

[kurahador]

lmao...can't wait. L&O SVU this season sure is quick in using real events.

I think the manifesto episode is this season too.

 

[jailbird20022]

Inb4 plot:

Pair of guys being degenerates and harassing female attendees
Starting to go to far
another guy gets involved and tells them to get lost
Pair leaves agitated and swearing
Guy is thanked
*fast forward*
harassment victim is found
*investigation and questioning phase of episode*
Find the two degenerates
Crap themselves
Not so tough in a jail cell
Actually didn't do it
*investigate more*
*begin plot twist*
Turns out guy that helped her in the beginning did it
*Insert some "She didn't wanna go out with me" line that happens a lot in Law and Order

Congrats: gamers are now painted as Social Degenerates and/or Creeps

IS THIS WHAT YOU WANTED.

"You and your game are going to be recognized in the hall of Rikers"

 

[nintendork666]

I remember one time on Law & Order (or a very similar show), one of the killers posted on a forum and when it came time to explain his actions it was because he was a failed writer and posting on forums was the only way his written word would ever find an audience.

 

[Discotheque]

hyped. this will be hilarious.

and for once their ridiculous interpretation won't be worse than the real thing.
