I cannot believe that this actually made news:

Apparently people are calling this game "exploitative" and "tasteless"...
Haha, I don't know about you guys but I just enjoy building things, watching it fail and trying to do better the next time around!
Cheers,

Well that was complete rubbish that I just watched. The "news" creating a "controversy" to fill some time. Another reason to love the media.

It's more the pre-Internet equivalent of click bait: "are your socks lying in wait to kill you? Details at ten!" Then they run the story and they talk about how a university tested a bunch of socks for hazardous chemicals from manufacturing and they passed inspection.
The intro was a bit inflammatory, but they let Mr. Morris get his point across nicely without ever challenging him or trying to trip him up. My complaints would be about their choice of in-game footage, and the fact that they had video from a real prison at the start of the clip when they were setting expectations for viewers about just what kind of game Prison Architect is. I think a timelapse of a prison being built would have still made their point while better priming the viewers.

My thoughts exactly. I spend more time planning and building the prison than dealing with riots and all that fun...

Do people even take the news seriously any more anyways?
