I don't like this. I don't like this at all.
This could set a dangerous precedent -_-
Not the best selling point..
@UberScytheLord: this "review" is not as good as it could be :-/ should be in the old format.
@Coffee Talks is gonna need y'all to bring Miz Jenkins back:

Thank you for this answer.

I may not totally agree with everything but I understand where some people are coming from better.
@MagImpalor is a god damn spy.:
Dude, you haven't made one point this entire time. Why do you think it's racist? What should I have researched?

I've seen the jazz singer, I had to read tons of books on this subject in college.

You probably don't even know what the Jazz Singer is lol. I would bet most people don't.. That's why this place is freaking retarded XD

I'm someone that actually has a lot of knowledge on this stuff, I come here, explain my opinion and I'm trolled by a bunch of know-it-alls that keep repeating the same opinion to me, while ignoring my responses. The Jezebel Hivemind!

I should remember this place is where people come for Lindsay Lohan news, maybe I shouldn't feel too bad. XD
@Coffee Talks is gonna need y'all to bring Miz Jenkins back: I just don't understand what is inherently racist about dressing up like a black person.. especially if you aren't exaggerating cultural stereotypes.

I know it sounds stupid but I've been trying to figure out EXACTLY what is racist about things.. and I can't figure out what is racist about these photos...

everyone just says blackface.. but it's not really blackface..

I think it's time I give up though, too many people disagree, I must be missing something :P
@MagImpalor is a god damn spy.: I dunno but saying that only white people debate race is racist.

right?
I guess we will agree to disagree.

I've seen a few photoshoots with women pretending to be black. I've also seen a few where the black women pretend to be white (somehow we don't hear about those)

What I find amusing is the fact that, being black is the part that is racist. Why is it racist though? Black face used to be about exagerrating the stereotypical characteristics of a black person.

I don't really see how this shoot is exaggerating offensive stereotypes. There is a baby? she has big hair? I don't know.

You guys don't seem to explain yourselves except for saying "you are racist, it is black face, culture..blah blah". THat's fine but you've missed what I'm debating.

Black face is racism.. but I don't think these photos are black face, at least not traditionally.
@blameitonrio is voting MizJenkins for Jezident!: How tan can you become before you are a racist exactly? Just curious.
@MagImpalor is a god damn spy.: @lodown (is waiting for MizJenkins):
People like to debate these things.. I for one don't really find it racist, I think it's interesting... I think the photographer wanted people to talk and the photos are definitely doing that.
I'm not a troll.. there is a difference between old black face and what this model is doing.. if you can't see the difference.. you might be blind!

Oh dear, I've been unstarred.. but quite frankly if this is the level of conversation.. who cares?

I want to talk about issues, real debate about what racism is.. you guys wanna post pictures from the 1930's of black face..

Sorry but that's just stupidity.. if you think wearing darker make-up makes you a racist.. you don't know what racism is.

Trust me, you are all falling into the trap the photographer wanted.. being stupid and calling it racist.

*** It's also pretty hilarious I was unstarred because I don't think something is racist. So much for journalistic integrity XD
Um I don't think they did this because they couldn't find black models... A white person made to look black looks different than a white person... Hence, why these shoots even take place...

Imitating how a black person looks by making your skin darker is not racist. Not much else to say, people in this thread kind of need to grow up, no offense...
@mr_godot: who the hell cares if it looks like the developer? You two need to get a life, lol. It's their game. Not yours. Take your uninformed speculations elsewhere XD
woo woo, this gives me more time to release my LBP cartoon. It's based on the 21 levels I did called Little Big Apocalypse. My cartoon is the ending, right after the last level, 30 min long too XD

Release date? Now January 2011 lol
Most "social games" are ads clicked on by stupid facebook users that don't realize they are having their data mined.

The games have little to no value, add nothing to gaming... they're fluff. Like having a tamagotchi.

I think it's depressing so many people play them. It's like.. wow, you're playing something my grandpa is playing.

I don't think it competes with real games though, so I couldn't care less. People will always want to play modern warfare and graphic intense games.

This stuff is just retarded though, if you're playing farmville, stand back and take a good look at yourself. Your other consoles are embarrassed for you.
@hardeho: It's not bad parenting, at 16, you should know CHOKING isn't a suitable form of fun, even a parentless child would know that.
he got permission from his bf? pfft, I dunno how cool I would be with that.
Hmm, wonder what happens if you inhale it, doesn't seem like something you'd want in your lungs.
