Cool. I'll just ignore any article or review authored by Leana Hafer.

So business as usual...

Oh by the way:

[N1tr0sOx1d3]

This individual wields too much power. Remove their sceptre!

 

[Saber]

Becoming just legacy media and being substitute by AI can't come soon enought.

 

[Gamerfan81]

I'm surprised IGN is still around.

 

[ShadyAcshuns]

IGN=eww.

 

[STARSBarry]

Too much water I guess.

 

[Gp1]

"you think i'm joking?"

 

[That Damn Kid]

 

[Magic Carpet]

Meme of America

 

[Korranator]

Nobody cares, it's just a video game.

 

[MMaRsu]

I mean its your president.... Not the rest of the world.

 

[808mate]

Never heard of them.

 

[Nankatsu]

Damn, she's beautiful.

 

[M1chl]

Ok, but you aren't really helping. The self importance of certain individuals is baffling

 

[Gamer_By_Proxy]

Metacritic should start revoking outlets ratings from consideration. They already did their "me too" activism with Days Gone.
Now a mentally ill dude with TDS can't handle a new name . . . after literally giving itself a new name and demanding people use it. Ha!

 

[adamsapple]

Well that's one way to ensure outlets don't contact you for further freelancing opportunities.

 

[Zacfoldor]

Get they far away from writing reviews, we can't base review scores off political opinions. Unacceptable. IGN you could be sued for this if it actually happened.

[K' Dash]

Why would anyone have a person like this on payroll? this is walking bag of problems.

 

[Hollowpoint5557]

40% is too low. Wish these freaks would do the world a favor and get their numbers up. IYKYK.

 

[Kacho]

Oh this is the same person that gave Veilguard a 9/10

Hmm

This one is too good lol.

 

[soulbait]

1. Renaming the "Gulf of Mexico" to "Gulf of America" is dumb.
2. Decreasing review points for using "Gulf of America" is dumb.

Overall, this entire thing is dumb.

omg hopefully nobody does try and call his bluff, don't want a thermonuclear war on our hands

In the U.S., the Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) has officially updated "Gulf of Mexico" to "Gulf of America." As we announced two weeks ago and consistent with our longstanding practices, we've begun rolling out changes to reflect this update. People using Maps in the U.S. will see "Gulf of America," and people in Mexico will see "Gulf of Mexico." Everyone else will see both names.

Oh by the way:

Trans, She/They

We need a barf response.

This is why the term 'trap' became offensive. At least try...

What if it is illegal to drill in the Gulf of Mexico but perfectly legal to drill in the Gulf of America and drilling began once the name was changed.

Still dumb?

 

[Freeman76]

cunt

 

[Tajaz2426]

We need mental asylums, again.

 

[GymWolf]

And people in other topics get mad when we say that reviews nowadays are useless

 

[Men_in_Boxes]

Cool. I'll just ignore any article or review authored by Leana Hafer.

So business as usual...

Did you value her opinion before this?

 

[drganon]

Of course he's the one that gave veilguard a 9.

[No BBC=Anger]

IGN in 2008 -- Babe Election top right corner. How times have changed. They even removed the archives from all those years ago. Internet never forgets, you fuckers.

 

[lughnasadh123]

Despite the change just being flat out stupid, A "professional" game reviewer knocking off a point when using an official name seems petty enough to not warrant reading.

 

[Fake]

Type A/ Type B: OK

Gulf of America: Not OK

 

[yogaflame]

IGN just like kotaku, eurogamer and thegamer, are bias and trash and full of woke ideology.

Oh by the way:

He's probably just butthurt that his plan of being a female athlete is now annulled.

Isnt that just for users in America?

Still shows Golf of Mexico (Golf of America) for me

 

[Gamer_By_Proxy]

Leana should get fired from IGN for dead-naming the Gulf of America. How bigoted of her . . .

 

[winjer]

Modern day gaming journalist really are useless, incompetent twats.
