You say "Apparently many designers" Can you give me examples of these "designers." I can only name one, Valve. If you can't name another one then I think you should keep your flame bait titles to yourself.

I'm the writer of the article. I don't know hip hop gamer,I have never met hip hop gamer, and I have no relation to hip hop gamer. If I wrote an article about Dan Hsu, would you have a problem with that? Do me a favor and read the article. When your done tell me what you don't agree with and I'd be happy to have a connversation with you. I'm looking for someone to prove me wrong.
At least read the article..like I said you don't have to agree with me but at least say why..I honestly believe that everything I wrote is true..I could careless if you approve of this or not..its not about that..its about giving credit where credit is due
That's the reason why Pixel Enemy created Counterpoint. It gives those smaller blogs more of a voice and let's other communities see who and what else is out there. Here's the link if you want to check it out.

If you look at the front page of N4G today I think my point has been made. Let's take a look at the Top 8.
#1. Third Person in Modern Warfare 2? 1090 degrees- Ends in a question mark.
#2. This is how Japan paints its Forza Cars. 960 degrees - Not really news but it doesn't use any tactics. Good job on this one.
#3. Netflix coming to PS3. 840 degrees - ACTUAL NEWS!!! HOORAY!
#4. $100 Xbox Live could end the console war. 800 degrees - Opinion ...
You just proved the point of my "article." This list is a prime example of what is wrong with the industry.
@ Dave
You bring up a good point. I don't mean to say that everyone makes lists to be lazy but I have to assume that the majority are. Its a lot easier to put your thoughts down in a list form then it is to write a complete article including all of your points. Hey, sometimes Top 10 lists are fun but they are EVERYWHERE. There has to be a reason for that and to me its because its convenient and your main points don't get lost in the article. Like I said the readers are lazy, th...
@George Sears
I am the author of the article, so I just want to say yes I was being sarcastic, however everything I said is true.
You make very good points about the industry as a whole and is why I decided to write this list. To me top ten lists are just a cop-out for lazy journalists. That being said you can't blame them for doing it because the audience as a whole is lazy as well. That's why the review score of a game is so important because people never read...
Damn it..that's a good one..I'm sure there are some other good ones too..you should just make another top ten list lol
O the irony :-)
Why are you guys bashing hip hop gamer when there is an entire post dedicated to that article and people are all saying the same thing he is. He just has the balls and podium to say it. He's 100% right, they're f*cking ign they have acess to every publisher developer and creator in the business and that piece of crap article is the only thing that guy can write about. That article belongs on that guys personal blog not the front page of what is supposed to be a well respected gaming site.
TS4 Please
Look I'm all for positive reviews for this game but this site can't be serious..they basicly took the ign review and modified it slightly..even with the scores at the end..maybe I'm going crazy cause I've read a ton of reviews over the past view days but that review sounded very familiar
What point was the author trying to make? You aren't allowed to get excited for a game unless there is a proper review? Sites aren't allowed to post their reviews until Feb 3rd, so the only thing that is allowed to be posted are previews and hands on impressions.
Kotaku has gone to crap..I'm seriously running out of gaming sites where the journalists aren't a bunch of bias pricks..its no wonder the gaming world is looked at as a joke..could you imagine if sports or politics were covered this way..give me a break..kotaku just reported the other day that they were on there 12th 360..and they jai laugh it off..god forbid their PS3 dies..they'll claim the console war is over and the ps3 has finally died
They couldnt get this game out this year. I understand they have Resistance 2 coming out and thats going to be a great game..but i think if they want to sell systems then Killzone would be the game to go head to head with gears..However maybe Sony knows what Bungie is working on and plans to have Killzone go head to head with the new Bungie project
360 man
Just want to remind you.. Those sales numbers only include 2 days worth of sales not a whole week. read before you post
Why are the words Skate and Tony Hawk in quotes?
