Former Editor-in-Chief, Chris Slate, was spotted today in the PSM offices, sparking rumors of an imminent return to right the listing ship. “I have no comment,” said Slate of the rumor mill, “other than to declare my undying fandom of Sony and all things PlayStation… unlike some other editors I could mention.” Slate’s views on Warhawk and Lair are unknown at this time. Slate was then seen heading to the offices of the PSM bosses for what we believe to be showdown meetings. We will update you on this breaking story as we get more news.

LOL.

We don't like unbiased reviews, will replace reviewer with a fanboy instead.

Nice ;)

(no doubt Sony wasn't very impressed by impartial reviews on some of its biggest titles...)

 

 

Well there is a reason this magazine beat Sony's version of Nintendo Power into the ground to where they had to give it up.

 Every console needs a few bias magazines that talk up nearly everything about every game for fanboys.  There's a market for it, and it should be met.  This magazine is basically supposed to tow the sony company line(despite no being owned by them) as does their sister magazine "Official Playstation Magazine."

If it doesn't the editor should be fired.  Statistics well bear out whether rationale people can take a reveiw at face value or not, so having a few bias magazines out there for people who want to believe their individual console does no wrong (like say... nintendo power) is a good thing.
