On 16 May, the long-awaited release of the PC version of Ghost of Tsushima took place. And the game proved to be a great success on the first day.
VGChartz's Lee Mehr: "What makes Planet of Lana among the better success stories is how it emulates without forgetting to incorporate its own personality. It's a "Playdead platformer meets Studio Ghibli" without stopping there. What on its surface is a determined rescue mission blossoms into a planet-wide expedition succinctly tying a foreign world's history and Lana's heroic journey to interrogate our own presently discordant relationship with nature. Although – sadly – better strengths in presentation and theme aren't as evident within its game design, at least there are some quality nuances to the formula. Those half-measures do reveal Wishfully too often retreating to safety, but the collected successes elsewhere still make for an impressive debut that's easily worth playing."

No.
Major news sites shouldn't be immune, either. Even a stopped clock gives the right time twice a day, but that doesn't make it a reliable or credible source for telling the time.
I say 2 - Mostly because if a big site is talking about it then it might have more weight to it.
Can't you guys like have a rumour tag and when you select it highlights the title of the article in orange or something to let the article stand out. Then when it's true the colour can turn green and if proven 100% false it turns red. I don't know spit balling.
I'm kind of surprised to have a poll, it's nice to allow the community to have a say however why not ask if to allow video game film news from big sites since Filmwatch is a ghost town or why not allow big Youtube streamers like Jim Sterling or Angry Joe for example to be posted on here? Least with someone like Jim Sterling whether you like the guy he researches and tells you about shitty MT's, lootboxes or anti consumer pratices, it gets the word out.
Could we maybe have a vote on those topics please.
