Hey guys.  Just wanted to discuss something that has really been bothering me.  It really isnt a big deal.  But it just irritates me when I see it.  Gaming bias.  Im not talking about GoNintendo or websites that are clearly advertised as bias before you enter.  Those are fine.  I expect it from them.  But...Is it just me or are some Kotaku writers ALWAYS ripping on the Wii?  I know its probably in good fun, but they only do it to the Wii.  Im not sure if 1UP or Joystiq does it at all because I don't frequent those sites as much, but Ive noticed with Kotaku (especially Luke Plunkett).  Anyway, before you yell at me with  "omg lighten up.  its a website" and all that jazz, I know.  Its definitely not a big deal.  Its just somehow slightly irritating considering they are supposed to report accurate unbiased news.  Kind of like how Fox is supposed to, but they dont (and many other news stations).

Really?  Because I just went to Kotaku about 2 minutes ago and saw the following:

A story about the discovery of a giant scorpion fossil.  What does that have to do with videogames you may be asking yourself?  Well the story makes fun of Sony and their Genji comments of "historical accuracy", "giant crabs", and "massive damage".

Another one has a story called "Pure Ace Combat 6 Hate" and shows a picture of a AC6 dvd broken in half and praise for Playstation installments of the game. 

And yet I don't seen any 360 or PS3 fanboys making a thread crying "bias".  Some Nintendo fans need to learn to take criticism or at least get a sense of humor because it's like nobody can put down anything on a Nintendo console anymore no matter how bad it is. 

Super Mario Galaxy is at the top of GameRankings and yet anytime some crap game on the Wii gets a 6 or lower we have to listen to a bunch of fanboys cry bias.  Edge gave Mass Effect a 7, go look in the thread and see if any 360 fans cried "bias", yet if it had been a highly anticipated Wii game we would have had a least one of two threads bashing them.

Anyways if you don't like the website don't go there but don't expect anyone to take the bias claims seriously anymore.


yeah but that barely happen to 360 and ps3,it mostly happens to wii
