Why should we trust loltaku on this?

? what do you mean?

This is not like a rumor, look at the pics, Hirokazu Hamamura is right there, even holding a MG PSP..

 

Also what wrong with Kotaku? It's a creditable site, like us it reports gaming news, can't really think of an article they posted that was wrong or brought to my attention that I should not read their news.

 

Lolye, Kotaku is a very unbiased, credible site... To claim that they are, would probably one of the worst statements ever... Congratulations!

About the ads:

SO WHAT? He likes the game/the game is good, he is somewhat famous for gamers and his name happens to sound/look like a Japanese verb which means "get in" or something similar to that. This is called WORDPLAY ladies (and gentlemen?), and happens to be one of my favorite types of humor/advertising. How stupid is this Kotaku guy writing this shit, using an online dictionary to find all the meanings for はまる, cooking up all these theories. All words in Japanese have multiple meanings like this. If I was Japanese and knew about this Hamamaru guy, I would find this ad good.

I wonder what Kotaku would say if this was happening to Halo, Gears or some other MS game. Oh, who the hell am I kidding? They wouldn't give a shit, they'd probably call it "a brilliant marketing strategy by MS".

Kotaku = major wankers

And to answer you heading:

Is there something I missed? Have you actually trusted any reviews at all this generation? They're nothing more than heavily biased 8/9+ fests anyways. Just look at some of the scores out this generation (Halo 3, Gears 2 and MW 2 comes to mind)

Congratulations on not providing any info on why Kotaku is not a credible site..

Wordplays Definition: Publisher of Mag, has Mag give game a perfect 40/40, then Publisher joins game's ad campaign?.. who knew..

The name thing seems to be a Pun in light of the article..

Can you please share some links to show how Kotaku is up MS's butt? from what I have read of Kotaku, Gizmodo, lifehacker, they seems to love Apple..

Yes, theres allot you missed.
