The comments have been pretty horrible for at least the last couple of years, maybe longer than that. It's like they're all auditioning to write lines for Two and a Half Men.

Here at Kotaku, we interview many wonderful video game creators and lots of powerful gaming executives. What we don't do—what we're going to do a lot more of—is interview the people who simply play video games.
To fix that, Kotaku video editor Chris Person and reporter Evan Narcisse ventured to downtown Manhattan shop Video Games New York and began asking regular gamers what they think about issues in and around video games.
We start now with a gamer from the Bronx named Robert who talked to us about his idea of strong female characters in games. More »

The latest Anonymous dump (http://pastebin.com/nfVT7b0Z) of 1,000,001 Apple Devices UDIDs made me giggle:
to journalists: no more interviews to anyone till Adrian Chen get featured in the front page of Gawker, a whole day, with a huge picture of him dressing a ballet tutu and shoe on the head, no photoshop. yeah, man. like Keith Alexander. go, go, go. (and there you ll get your desired pageviews number too) Until that happens, this whole statement will be the only thing getting out directly from us. So no tutu, no sources.

what, gamespot for running a shitty un-fact-checked review, or kotaku for being interested?
thread's about gawker, I think you might want the "wtf is up with metacritic" thread

― buzza, Thursday, 15 November 2012 02:36 (6 months ago) Permalink
It'd make sense to change their policy, but their policy does make sense -- sites were changing shit all the time, especially on video games, a couple years ago due to pressure. Real question is why gamespot is publishing shitty reviews

The review, scored 60/100 and written by a freelancer named Eric Neigher, had been eviscerated by readers and commenters who pointed out a number of mistakes—for example, the review said the recently-released indie game was $30, when it actually costs $25.
