Don't like the news, then submit some yourself.
Don't like the news team, find us some pro-360 people who are good at, or willing enough to find news and write about it.
Oh, and just a few things for this Month to take note on.
Heavy Rain blowouts.
God of War 3 blowouts.

I did, hence my question
if I hadn't have read it, my question wouldn't have been what it was.
it seems you mean PS3 articles
well maybe PS3 has more news right now & finally why is it such a big deal?

There's been Splinter Cell and Mass Effect blowouts too, it's just that no one posted them.

But Nordlead, u have missed the essence of the problem if that's the only thing u can say. Is it right that the amount of news should reflect the ratio of fans? Because the Xbox fans have a much much smaller pool of potential recruits. |
that isn't what I said though. VGChartz brings on 3 Sony contributors, and 3 Microsoft contributors. The microsoft contributors don't do their job and are tossed off the team. The 3 sony contributors actually contribute. Had the microsoft contributors contributed, then there would be equal amount of news. The overall forum ratio has nothing to do with the number of contributors brought on.
I don't run the news, but I've seen this happen. (edit: i also don't know exactly what the current situation is because I haven't been keeping up with who is on the general news contribution team)
You are very upset because there aren't that many articles aimed at the 360 than there are that are aimed at the PS3... Isn't that a bit... well... sad?
This sounds more like a winge to me. What do you want done about it? Ban half the PS3 supporters from using the site so the ratio is more half and half????

Okay, but maybe we always need to have twice as much MS contributors as Sony contributors, because the MS guys are lazy?
I think it's the end result that matters.

We do news on a volunteer basis, you can't expect people to go searching for news about stuff they don't really care about if you aren't giving them a sallary. As Nordlead said, we've brought on 360 contributors specifically to fix this problem and they haven't worked out. Find us some good 360 oriented contributors and you can singlehandedly fix the problem instead of just lamenting it.
...
your upset because ... of that? come on now, thats not really like you eh?
To be fair, IGN has more xbox news... It depends which site you are on.
