I am sick and tired of news outlets that twist statements out of context to gain hits.
Bethesda never said, "Wii U: ‘it doesn’t support our games’" But that is how they present their article.
I am calling for a boycott on any and all sites that deliberately misconstrue a quote to denigrate any console maker for the benefit of web site hit. |
I'd like to agree with this gentleman wholeheartedly on this point.
I used to post here, a couple of years ago, under a different alias, and it's stuff like this that drives people like me away*--it also refeclts badly on the site as a whole since the mods tolerate flat-out false and misleading information and statements. (This topic title is so far off the mark in accuracy, it makes the idiotic brouhaha over the twisted-out-of-shape Capcom comment from a week ago look mild in comparison.)
So yeah, do something about this, mods, or watch the site continually bleed users who are sick to death of this sort of sensationalized, braindead, makes Kotaku look honest, nonsense of which too many of your users are guilty.
*Been back lurking for about 6-months, but I'm on the verge of bailling again because this sort of thing seems to be tolerated for reasons I can't quite fathom.
P.S. And to (too) many of you: how about reading the actual OP--not just the headline--before throwing down your 2-cents, eh? You might find that what's written in the headline has *zero* relation to what was actual said that way we don't see these discussion going pages and pages deep before we get to the first person who actually *read* the damn post and called BS on it.

You, sir, are being quoted for verisimultude.
It does make me ponder to state a few more things regarding matters of a personal nature regarding this site and my site though professionalism is convincing me to stay silent.
Applause again for the comment.
EDIT: Do you wish me to edit my own post given your edit given that it undermines your own edit?
