That's what I want to know too. Surely somebody calls him out on his horrible attitude?
No chance a member of that insular circle jerk will call out another.

Doesn't this also give NeoGAF free advertising too? And besides he's announcing this to people who already know about him, so I fail to see how it's free advertising for him. Sounds like most people on GAF already knew about him and are boycotting his game as a result of this incident.Yeah, because I'm sure everyone loves some sweet advertisement of them making an ass out of themselves.
Sigh.. Isn't the games industry a bit too old for ignorant shit like this?

Phil Fish is a 50 poster confirmed.
I guess part of being "indie" is that he can make comments like this. If he worked for one of the big guys he'd at the very least land himself a meeting with HR, if not worse...
All their albums are great, man. Also, I never said that Japanese games suck. :/
Indeed. I wish there was more stuff like this coming out of there, but as far as I've seen that's pretty much as far as good japanese music goes.
In most cases it's not even generic, more like copies of already generic music from elsewhere in the world.
Perhaps there is more to find, i dunno.
I'm pretty sure the entirety of the Bay Area games press is laughing at us right now
If he doesn't want to be taken out of context, then he shouldn't run to Twitter right after and say the same thing.

I'm not American, stop being a cyberbully.
I wonder how many 1-star reviews Fez will get as soon as it's available to rate on Xbox Live.
Have a listen and see what you think...

Very few, I'd imagine, unless somebody digs this back up closer to release. Fez looks pretty good, despite the designer's shitty attitude.
Getting flashbacks of the ocean markettting saga. Some people just don't give a fuck. This incident will pass and the world will keep turning. The whole east/west topic is probably a debate worth having i guess even though its beaten to death somewhat. But Fish himself? Not worth the effort.

Whether you're of the opinion that Japanese games suck or not, you can't say their music sucks.

Amazing album.
It's funny. We all thought the whole MineCon Notch insulting Yogs thing was a big deal, but now no one remembers it because it turned out to all be a misunderstanding between cultures and attitudes. But this. This is a bit different. Fish keeps digging himself deeper and doesn't seem to have remorse because he really truly feels he is right.
And the fun doesn't stop! More Phil Fish controversy.

The fact that Fez can have already won an IGF award and now its nominated for what is it? I think two awards, including the Grand Prize? I think its a really good reminder that the IGF is all about cliquey-ness, the scenesters that I yell about. The fact that its about the established quote, unquote indie scene. Not about whats really exciting about DIY games, you know the fact that anyone can make games."
Fantastic article. Sums up the fez igf situation really well.And the fun doesn't stop! More Phil Fish controversy.

Were not even thinking about it right now, he says. I mean, ultimately, I would like to see it on everything. Why not? But we do have exclusivity with Microsoft, as you do you find its really hard to not do that.
Why did he make the comfy couch comment when only a few days later he told the exclusivity reason?
Oh my bad thenThe comfy couch comment was from an interview from last June or so.
I just know it controls better than most of the games from the East. And I've played a lot of games from Japan, just check my gamertag, it's "Jag".
Fish, and other indie developers like him, are a joke.
Bums like Fish can't even complete a game even after 5 years. This is why indie gaming isn't taken seriously.
I took it upon myself to post the following reply:
Yes, because criticising a guy for being a tactless asshole on an internet forum is the same thing as being a tactless asshole in public and embarrassing a polite audience member. Even if one thinks his opinion is reasonable (and not a gross generalisation that a person in his position shouldn't be promoting), his behaviour was still way out of line.Why is it that you guys can talk smack about him but he can't talk smack about japanese games?
Someone asked him a direct question and he gave his opinion on it. End of story.
Hey Phil Fish what do you think of Japanese games?
I think japanese games suck.
OH NO YOU BAD MAN NO CLASS LEWZAR
Hey Neogaf what do you think of Phil Fish?
I think Phil Fish sucks.
RIGHT ON BRA HIGH FIVEZ

Haha. Much of the best Japanese music is a lot noisier than that...The noisyness might need some time getting used too, but it sure has it's appeal.
The track avaliable on spotify is nice.
Thanks!
