lollerz, you care about reviews.
It's not even the reviews. GameSpot didn't even bother to cover the Xbox summit in Japan, but you can bet they're all over the Square conference like flies on shit. :lol

Because they're aware of MS's unimportance in Japan. :)

Luckily, there's other game news places, so it doesn't matter at the end of the day.
 
eternalsunshine said:
But what about MS Japan's importance in America? Japanese don't read GameSpot...

Dunno. Would imagine that an American show would be for that. Wouldn't think that they'd talk about their American importance/plans at a Japanese show. *shrug*

Huh? The Xbox Summit got front page news. They didn't give frontpage news to the PlayStation Meeting. :p

:lol :lol

So why did they cover the PS3 or Squeenix Japan conferences?

hmmmmmmmmmmmmm I've been saying this for that past 6 months... remember when Madden 2006 NEXT-GEN was announced and GS put it huge on their front page for PS3? :lol :lol

Oh man them not covering the Xbox Summit is just way too obvious though even for GS.
 
gamespot has been caught red handed.

"Why no updates on the Xbox Japan Summit?"

We appreciate your interest and we're working hard to make sure to report on this event as soon as possible under the circumstances. Sometimes there are extenuating circumstances preventing us from reporting on certain events as quickly as we'd ideally like to, but there tends to be no simple way to explain away those types of things without it sounding like an excuse. And we don't make excuses for our coverage.

oh really
 
Seriously, who gives a flying fuck about this, CNEt and all these websites are all supported financially by gaming companies, through advertising, payoffs, whatever...who cares... their reviews, coverage is all biased, it's just amazing why all the stupid fucks in this world pay for shit they can get free.
 
It's a conspiracy. Really.

GS is practically owned by Sony. WHAT A JOKE! :lol

It's all going according to plan!!! LOL. Thank God we have message board posters who can see through the Sony/GS smokescreen!!!
 
So... Gamespot is biased against Sony now? We're absolutely clear on this fact? 'Cause I was getting concerned, all the people from different camps wagin' complaints against them. I can rest easy now.

We're absolutely clear on the fact they are biased for them, not against. Last complaint I heard was that they were only biased against Nintendo, but apparently now it's everything not having to do with the Sony Playstation brand.
 
Iamthegamer said:
Not only that, but for the Xbox! Let me guess, Gamespot claims it's the worst game ever because Sony helped pay their bills?

XBOX -Super Metroid - 4.7

Videogame journalism is a sad joke anyway. As far as the industry has come you would think the guys that cover it could have made some progress.

actually, the xbots and nboys have both claimed gamespot bias...

in other news, cnet reviews are biased towards sony and apple...

check out their camera or digital music player reviews...

Yes yes, that is what I meant. And because you're so cute when you're being serious toward sarcasm, I won't be really mean and point out how fucking stupid this fishing expedition is.

That's because there's a new XBox coming out within the next year. Sony is only releasing GOD IN A BOX!!!
 
How is this different than say Ebert and Roper having a partnership with Paramount. In any other industry it would destroy your credibility.

Oh god. :lol :lol :lol

I dunno which mod put that there and what it was directed at. I'm a balanced guy no fanboy of anything really.

But please don't ignore me, the spirit from your soul gives me LIFE!!!

....and you know Sony won't put up subpar review scores on their site...

Winner!

I stopped reading Gamespot a few years ago, but this just reinforces my view of their integrity. Holy shit!
