LeonardoCornejo: There is something that might interest you related to these corrupt SJWs. GOG refused to sell Hatred, according to the game developers behind Hatred, GOG told them the game was good, but “They can’t sell it”. And you might wonder why would that be possible? There is a simple explanation. SJWs managed to grab GOG by the balls, ...

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.
Well, considering otline Miami 2 was released even though it is banned in Australia, it is not thta likelly, but it could have to do with the fact that the rating was not disclosed before release. Just let's not lower our guards, it could also have something to do with the game made by Double Fine which just got released if my theory is right.

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.

Yeah I could have phrased that better. I was trying compare the corruption of old media to new media and how the latter was seen as a vanguard of honest practice and worthwhile coverage that started utilizing old media tactics. I mean Gawker uses the Fox media playbook page for page man.

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

I did some freelance journalism for a while. Yes, it's a joke. And the joke's on us. There's not a media entity, magazine publisher, trend setting rag, or powerhouse media division on Earth that doesn't have it's own internal agenda... the dollars at the end of that rainbow are just icing on the cake.

But I don't want to depress you by playing up the fact that we're all being lied to on a constant basis by other people in media who claim to have our best interests at heart. So here's another joke...

They might as well all be saying, 'GAYMERZ ARE DED!' Same difference.

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.

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?

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?

I think you've mis-read Gies and taken his comments out of context, I think you'd done to his review exactly what you've accusing HIM of doing to the game he's reviewing

And I'VE shown exactly how you've done that and you won't listen and you keeping going on about it so, to me, the troll is you!
