A feud has recently broke out between Penny Arcade (Organizers of PAX) and a customer against Ocean Marketing (Makers of the Avenger controller) over a set of disgusting emails from Ocean marketing. IGN, Kotaku, Engadget, are all involved and have said they don't support Ocean Marketing. It's a real interesting read. Link below.

Holy hell that was awesome. I was disappointed by the end though. I hope this story gets popular because I haven't seen someone who deserves public humiliation get what's coming for a while.

Thanks for the link. Time to write my email :lol:

It did get popular! It's trending on Twitter. And then the guy changed his named on Twitter from @OceanMarketting to @Oceanstratagy. Both are spelled wrong. #FAIL

What a douche. There was no need to start sending e-mails like that to a customer.
