No one had better think this is an ACTUAL article… only because the marketing opportunity presented by actual sniper attacks would do anything BUT stop the release of this game.
Well, that, and The Onion is a mock-news website.

Actually, the Onion is more than just a mock-news website; they have a print version as well. But really, they just rule.
My favorite quote from this article:
“Upon discussing the matter internally, we decided that it would be inappropriate to unleash the intense sniping action and white-knuckle stealth gameplay of Beltway Sniper at this time,” Pixxel Arts president Davis Conway said.
I so wish I could write stuff like that. But in the meantime, I’m just glad the Onion is out there.

I used to read The Onion on a daily basis, but honestly, it just kinda gets old after a while. I rather admire your writing style, as it has a much broader range and isn’t predictable. And though it sounds like major ass-kissing, your site (the old one more than the new one, due mostly to article length) has influenced my own style greatly. Of course, so has Scott Christensen (www.ewav.com), so whether that’s a compliment or not is a little foggy.
