Reply To: Is BoW biased in its reviews?

I don’t mind positive and negative reviews (for example The Dice Tower) as long as the reviewer says what they like and dislike.

The real scandal, that is not being called out often enough, is paid for content masquerading as reviews. Certain sites making money pretending to do reviews which are no more than adverts.

The sad thing is that games journalism just doesn’t exist. Nobody with a decent profile online is calling out the shady practices. And so gamers will continue to get stung by the minority of dodgy folks who have latched on to the hobby to make money. And nobody is calling out the big companies when they are being shady either, because they want/need to be in the good graces of the games companies in order to get shiny stuff to show off.
