It's pretty good. Even on Xbox 



I think companies who have a lot of money would only do that



It's just myths. It's not cost effective to pay a guy to write forums posts. It happened perhaps a couple of times in history but that was in the past.

I think this is ugly as hell, but it was just a question of time. Most people simply like to follow the crowd or some iconic persons. That's natural in some sort of way. They love to suck up everything others say just to feel safe. So now you can't be sure where and how you are going to be manipulated. The only one you can trust anymore is yourself.

I would actually think it would be most common on the midtier level.  Companies that are well off but not big enough to do a marketing rush like Activision Blizzard, Ubisoft, etc.  People often think that the biggest companies do all the worst stuff, but actually it's not normally the case.  Some do, but the majority are far more careful, shrewd, and indirect. 



some of my favorite posters are meatbots.



Hey eveveryone, we should all buy that new Nintendo console



“It appeared that there had even been demonstrations to thank Big Brother for raising the chocolate ration to twenty grams a week. And only yesterday, he reflected, it had been announced that the ration was to be reduced to twenty grams a week. Was it possible that they could swallow that, after only twenty-four hours? Yes, they swallowed it.”
