You know, this would never fly in general journalism (except for the limited vocabulary -- you have to write dumb so people understand you and it stunts your mind).
I am not saying there are not biases. But video game journalists far more resemble talk radio than the nightly news.
I covered sports for newspapers for 15 years. I cannot imagine anyone who I worked with going public talking about how stupid a team was (not how stupid their decisions might be) while (a) still covering the sport and (b) that team sitting in first place.
A lot of these people don't get there is a different way to play games. If you don't like the Wii, that is fine. But if it your job to cover the game industry, should you really be yelling that one company "sucks" from the highest tree?
Paradigm shifts leave people behind. What will they do when they need to play Halo 4 on the Natal Xbox?

 I am Mario.I like to jump around, and would lead a fairly serene and aimless existence if it weren't for my friends always getting into trouble. I love to help out, even when it puts me at risk. I seem to make friends with people who just can't stay out of trouble. Wii Friend Code: 1624 6601 1126 1492 NNID: Mike_INTV |
