ok, so what has been missed? I also read Google's news site everyday and focus on the Tech section especially. I haven't seen anything discussed there that isn't already a news report on here.

You're just defending. If I bring good arguments, I have all the right to 'complain'. You are not to decide if I should become a contributor or not. Besides, u totally miss the point with that reply. Because it's by default hopeless to expect that this matter will be fixed by itself and come naturally from the community - for the very reason that the community itself is heavily dominated by people interested in Sony and the PS3. The change must come from above (or from discussions like this). Who should I recuit if there's no one to recruit!

Oh com'on. So you mean one article about Mass Effect 2 equals 5-6 articles about new Heavy Rain bundles?

So you're real complaint is that the PS3 news contributors are duplicating articles, not that some news story is being missed.

No offence, but that's kinda silly.

Besides Zexen. Naz among other site leaders have huge authority here. It wouldnt maybe even be needed with a strict limit on the number of articles for each brand (which I agree sounds artificial and awkward). But if they just got aware of the problem, including staff like you, you could restrain yourselves in other ways.

Just as an example out of the year, imagine if Naz said in your invisible staff-forum: "Hey guys, please don't spam the news section with all these PS3 bundles", I am sure that change would happen immediately.

Depends on what you mean. If you mean contributor to post reviews/features, which are independant of the news team and aren't a subject of this debate, you're right, I have no say. But if you mean if I decide who joins the news team, I don't "decide" it, but I have a voice in it. Who do you think suggested Carl, Flow and Xen join the news team? In the same way, if there was a user who is "MS oriented" and who submits good articles, I would suggest him for promotion, and he'd surely join our news team. But alas, there isn't.

OK, so what do you suggest, that I go to the profile of everyone who owns Halo 3 and post in his wall "do you want to join the news team?"

No it's not silly.

Maybe the 360 just hasn't had as many newsworthy things happen to it....

Well, what else have they missed then?  Maybe Microsoft is holding back alot of information and Sony is blowing their wad early in the year.  PS3 has some pretty big exclusive coming up soon, plus alot more information has been released about their motion control, and thats the majority of what I have seen.   That and the ongoing GT5 delay saga.  So not all news is good news.

Most everything that is known about Natal is pretty old information so there is only so much you post of that, and I feel like they are holding back information, which could be a good thing cause it could be megaton type news later in the year closer to release.  The do have some good exclusive games coming out so in that aspect you could complain, but have there been big screenshot blowouts and such like there has for the PS3 games?   If so then there should be something about them.  

Is so.
