GameZone's Matt Liebl analyzes the uproar over IGN's review debacle and why IGN never should have removed part of the PixelJunk SideScroller review. He offers insight as to how the whole situation should've been handled.
PSU takes a look at game developers that brought us great games this console generation, but didn't get the attention they deserved.
It’s that time of year again; the time our wallets dread the most. As we approach an inescapable surge of blockbusters and AAA titles, there’s no telling what we’ll be able to afford next after the dust settles and we’re comfortably perched on our sofas playing the latest games.
first comment yeaaaah >:)... i have all those games but i havent play neither of them :(
Wipeout HD is simply one of the best racing games ever made. It still saddens me Sony Liverpool is closed down. :(
Well if you are had the pleasure of owning a PS3 on release and are a regular purchaser from the PSN then you will already have most of the game titles from PixelJunk. Seen as the developer Q-Games have been producing games for the PSN since the PS3′s launch in 2007.
If you have managed to oversee these fab games and are also a PS Plus holder then you are in luck. As the games have been released from 79p.
I want them to release a sequel or an addon for PixelJunk Monsters. My favorite game by them.
Very interesting read. Describes most of todays gaming journalism in a nutshell. Amateurs rushing through games to get their articles out as fast as they can, without properly exploring the games they are writing about.
lol damn, talk about getting caught red handed! Man, I never trusted review scores, as I relied on the actual written content of the review to sort of give me an idea about whether I should or should not purchase a game.(Of course I don't always agree with the review...I bought Lair and loved it!)....but it seems you can't even rely on that these days...
I think I'll just stick to playing demos and listening to my friends to see if a game is worth the £40
Yea, I understand the tough position the reviewer is in, but just man up to what you did.
More controversy in the reviewing industry.
He might have been on a tight deadline but its not fair to the developer. IGN is well known and if a bad review goes up it will have an impact.
