Pete Dodd admitted Sunday that he's just been "having a laugh" with gamers on Twitter with his tidbits of news and (especially?) his #PS4noDRM campaign. In fact, Dodd went so far as to say that users should not take anything he says seriously:
I find it impossible to take anything someone says seriously if they use the term xbot or sony pony. They sound like insults from an 8 y/o.

We'll let that sink in for a moment: It's "impossible to take anything someone says seriously..." IMPOSSIBLE. While some readers may see this as Dodd preaching common sense or encouraging people to pay attention to exactly who they're listening to, we can't help but see it as something of an admission... perhaps a cry for help after a simple joke went too far. To wit, a Dodd tweet from mid-February:
Who am I a pawn for though? I mean I'm a sony pony, right? But I really like the xbox one. And titanfall. Are they working together!?!

Clearly Dodd's March 3rd tweet is a callback to this message -- as well as an admission that he's a man who's impossible to take seriously. While we can only speculate as to why he's been playing gamers for fools (and that he is, perhaps, a fan of DRM in all forms), it's clear subtle truths lie beneath his duplicitous nature.Dear reader, we will continue our commitment to truth and attempt to seek out those nuggets of truth while filtering out Dodd's damned lies.
