this is a great policy. much better than the old Epic Mickey styled "say the words? BANNED".

Hopefully the other mods have been informed of that policy change.
I don't want to speak for anyone else, but the thing with the Epic Mickey thread was that it was such a shitstorm and the discussion was derailed so badly and so many warnings (and dead bodies) were posted that at some point, I think things became a little more indiscriminate.

A lot of posts in this thread are okay because the platforms haven't really been confirmed although that Ubi-art Q&A seems to imply PSN, XBLA, and PC. I would hope that subsequent threads about this game won't be 50% people expressing disappointment about the platform choice. I hope that clarifies everything.
