edit: And to think that ign started as n64.com dedicated to nintendo. now all the nintendo guys are gone :(


IGN started as that and psx and next generation and so on.  Early on it was like 5 different sites.  Yeah, I remember when it started too.

Who is this fellow? I swear, I don't know the name of any reviewer (except those I know personally, of course)!

i hope the DK Review is a grand one




Man, Bozon left wich was a huge bullit bill to the chest for me and now Craig?!  Now the 2 guys that I actually like the most in IGN is now gone from the Nintendo section...

Miss you already!

Hmm, Craig was always the least interesting person on the Nintendo team, but as far as reviews are concerned, he did his job well. Its unfortunate, but expected. The site isnt what is used to be, even just a few years ago.

seconded. I hope he can leave on a high note.

I wonder if he will be generous to the game (since it´s his last) given that he was recently generous to goldeneye, I hope he doesnt butcher it

Edit: But I want complete honesty for this game

That's pretty much my thoughts as well.  He always seemed like a solid reviewer, but he was far from being noticeable.  And with that, the only IGN staffers I can name are Hilary Goldstein and Jessica Chobot, assuming they're still there.



He's gone like Donkey Kong!



My favorite IGN crew was definitely Cassamassina, Bozon and Craig.  They're all gone now so what do we get?  Nate Ahearn reviewing Black Ops Wii and bitching about the controls and knocking it down a whole point for... well, I'm not sure exactly.  Oh well, I guess I'll have to get my Nintendo fix elsewhere.  Anyone on here have some good ideas of where to go?  Kotaku is interesting sometimes, but a lot of the people over there seem to be elitest d-bags.  "Look at my star, I'm a star commenter".  It's a hive mentality amongst many of the stars it seems.
