pretailer 

A company that sells a shitty unfinished product instead of taking the necessary time and resources to make a good product. Examples include fen-phen, Simcity 2013, Battlefield 4, and most egregiously, DayZ and all its clones.
DayZ will never become a finished product because they're making all the money in pretail, so there's no real motive to get it done right.

EA has turned into a full-on pretailer by rushing games like Simcity and Battlefield 4 to release before game features actually work.

Preptalk is the art of talking somewhat monosyllabically and in an exaggerated, deep, manly voice. It is usually used by people classified as "preps" to make fun of others. Some people who do not use preptalk on a regular basis make fun of the people by using it to insult them back. Users who use preptalk for insults may say the last name of the insultee before the insult. At first it is hard to understand, but after it is overused, it becomes much easier to comprehend. The use of preptalk makes the user look like an idiot and may be accompanied by grammar errors.
1) *BIG--QUEER
2) *BIG--QUEE (This is a common grammar error made by users.)
3) *HO--MO
4) *JACK-SON---WHAT--A--FAG
5) *THIS--IS--PREP-TALK

*-said in a loud, obnoxious, deep-voiced tone (all preptalk is said like this)

murderhobo 

In a tabletop game, a murderhobo is a player who murders NPCs indiscriminately. This is normally derogatory, referring to a player who totally ignores quests, dialog, backstory, trade, world building etc.
