Forums - Nintendo Discussion - Eurogamer- They Are Biased Against The Wii... Their Reviews Prove It

EUROgamer...Well they love the Wii in Europe less than the rest of the world..






Around the Network

I used to love the reviews in Computer & Videogames, they had all console + PC and were very pro and had loads of good reads, both reviews and articles.
I subscribed to it for a few years from the UK, but then they disabled foreign subscription (at least for Norway) so I didn't get it anymore...
Do they still publish? I think many game magazines are having a hard time now with all the gaming sites online, I don't know a single person who reads gaming mags anymore.



Well, I love a conspiracy, but if you look at their sites statistics in general ( http://www.gamerankings.com/itemrankings/sitedetails.asp?siteid=561 ) and then at the Wii in particular you will see that the Wii is only 1% lower on average. Where the site seems to be a bit biased is their PS3 and XBox 360 reviews which are a little less negative than their slant in general.



They tend to rate ALL games low, not just Wii games. Seriously, what the hell are you guys whining about. Is your game worse because one reviewer doesn't like it, NO. It is the SAME no matter what they say.



We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers…Also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls.  The only thing that really worried me was the ether.  There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge. –Raoul Duke

It is hard to shed anything but crocodile tears over White House speechwriter Patrick Buchanan's tragic analysis of the Nixon debacle. "It's like Sisyphus," he said. "We rolled the rock all the way up the mountain...and it rolled right back down on us...."  Neither Sisyphus nor the commander of the Light Brigade nor Pat Buchanan had the time or any real inclination to question what they were doing...a martyr, to the bitter end, to a "flawed" cause and a narrow, atavistic concept of conservative politics that has done more damage to itself and the country in less than six years than its liberal enemies could have done in two or three decades. -Hunter S.
