walpurgis8199: I haven't looked into this in detail, but the fact that they said "can't" leads me to the conclusion that it has to do with the adult's only rating that Hatred got handed by the ESRB. If the game deserved that rating is another issue. I'm guessing that GOG is just doing what Steam is doing and avoiding adult's only content due to the various laws around the world. Some countries have quite harsh laws around adult content.

Shadowstalker16: A young dog that does the old tricks better and doesn't have diarrhea spells at every review. Also a dog that's more faithful.

RWarehall: I still blame Fox for the decline in media values. They turned objective journalism into a sideshow. Of course, it doesn't help that newspapers don't do their own research anymore. Today I ran across the old story about some Counter-Strike player who was knifed in the game. Took six months to find the guy in real life and stabbed him. The funny thing was, I found an article which cited another article which cited a third article. I followed a bunch of links just to figure out there was one original article about it written in the Telegraph and all the other articles just added a few pictures and rearranged the story with all the same quotes.

So, while it appears all these papers investigated the story, it appears the reality is they all copied the Telegraph story. So if facts were wrong they were repeated umpteen times. That's the quality of journalism today. One paper writes something and all the others take it for truth...

RWarehall: How about the number of perfect 10's and 9.5's? Those are all perfect games without issues at all? 1 point less than Mutant Blobs: Tales from Space? Dragon Age: Inquisition near perfect score. C'mon...get real. We know why they dropped the score, its the "oppresive misogyny"...

You either like to disagree to disagree or you've really drunk the SJW Kool-aid...

Fever_Discordia: After a VERY quick look - other games that have scored 8.0 on Polygon - SJW darlings

The Last of Us:

Remember Me:
http://www.polygon.com/2013/6/3/4389162/remember-me-review

RWarehall: Funny how you link to another click bait review in Last of Us...
"I wanted to avoid that violence in part because of its disgusting detail."

Remember Me is just universally mediocre. An 8.0 is actually a slightly above average review.

But again, you ignore all the games I linked and didn't even respond. Troll harder. Seriously, all you are doing id playing the anti card. It gets old when assholes are just trolling the thread like this.

Fever_Discordia: Yeah, I'm a 'troll' and Arthur Gies' reviews are 'click-bait'
Why is it so hard for you to accept that other people have different opinions to you?
Why do you have to keep having to explain them away with insults and claims of not being genuine?
Is a world where everyone doesn't think exactly like you do really that scary to you?

RWarehall: Because every Goddamn thing you say in this thread is the exact opposite of anyone else. You don't add anything to the discussion at all. You nitpick and otherwise act like an ass by coming back every day and stating the same bullshit you spouted yesterday. That''s why you are a troll.

We've shown exactly how Arthur Gies takes things out of context, how he doesn't even try to be objective; how does doesn't get his facts even right.

What have you shown? Oh yeah, you "think" he's being honest. And you are going to come back tomorrow and tell us how you think he's being honest. Then the next day and the next? Doesn't that sound like a troll to you?
