It's not a coincidence. Nintendo and Sony fans are generally way too involved into their fandom from what I've experienced this far. Then again I haven't seen much of it on VGChartz lately so that's a good thing. David Jeffe said it well himself: "[it has] everything to do with the sad state of game consumers who have been so effectively conditioned by a number of the gaming press/gaming PR machines that these gamers leap to a title's defense-not that this gem of a game needs defending- without even being open to the reviewer's criticism (be it valid or not). That's tragic. What's even more tragic is I would argue the games medium itself has been damaged by this practice. Irrevocably? No. But it has taken its toll for sure." I'm done buying what a company wants me to buy (I was done a few years ago actually). I just buy good games wherever they are, period. The whole "I like this game because it's on my favorite company's platform" is really just dumb. Lots of games/movies like Uncharted came out years ago like Tomb Raider and Indiana Jones. Tomb Raider has nobody ever complaining so if something like this happened, it just seems because it's a Sony exclusive all of a sudden it becomes part of some untoucheable cloud with some people. It's insane. And no, we don't remember this shit happening for Gears of war, and your upset attitude also proves the matter a bit. Instead shouldn't you be facepalming at all the retarded comments scooped up from that pile of tard? |
Er...yes we did. A lot of people complained about gears of war 3 getting 8 at eurogamer. Go check out their own review.
I am not upset btw. I 100% expected people to backlash over at eurogamer because of what happened with gears of war 3.
If I keep facepalming at all the retardness in this world I wouldn't have a forehead right now. Or a hand. Or both.
