MCV Publish Wainwright Hitman Absolution 'Recommendations'

OK so MCV is some fluff insider PR vehicle. Fine.

The problem is using a writer like Lauren Wainwright to write your fluff pieces and then next for Lauren to expect people to take her actual reviews written for other publications or sites seriously.

Oh so yesterday you wrote a PR piece but today you are a serious independent reviewer with no agenda but lots of integrity?

It does not work like that.
 
This is such a non-story. The timing is unfortunate as its given internet conspiracy theorists more ammo.

As others have said, its a TRADE magazine and is part of every publishers UK trade marketing plan. Lauren writes most if not all of the 'Recommended' items each week. If this article is to be taken as some evidence of corruption then she's also under the influence of Ubisoft, SEGA, Namco Bandai and Warner Bros for this week.

People need to focus on the larger issue in hand rather than trying to paint somebody out to be some sort of demon
