Yeah he did, read the Techraptor article linked up above in the credit url.
I'm glad he railed on the press for their one-sided coverage of #GamerGate. Finally, devs speaking up.
Not really sure what you're expecting from a walkthrough. It's not a review. It's for people who either get stuck and need help or people who want to see how the game plays before they commit to buying it.
In some of the other walkthroughs, like the one for Assassin's Creed Unity's DLC, people had trouble with some of the puzzles, so I wrote out how to get past those segments. Because it's a walkthrough.
For some other games, when ne...
The QTEs are mostly just there at the beginning. I'm not going to give things away, but the game settles into the Gears of War-esque play-style rather quickly.
There are QTEs throughout the game, though. But it's not as pervasive as say Resident Evil 6 or Heavy Rain.
I agree.
There are plenty of terrible games out there with broken mechanics. That should suffice to keep people away. If they do contain offensive content, a reviewer should be allowed to bring this out, but it should be balanced so that the score isn't driving away people who may not care about potentially offensive content but only want a game with solid gameplay mechanics.
Gotta agree about that. I don't even know what Square was thinking when they put that mess together.
By the way, I love that avatar. 'Q' is the man!
"to censor games that don't adopt a feminist viewpoint."
You must have missed the news about feminists getting GTA V banned from Target and K-Mart in Australia. Nice try, though.
Interactive butt thrusting... David Cage really pushing those boundaries. Even Apple wanted to get in on that plot.
Thank you for finally allowing this on the site.
While this isn't a rumor (it's been acknowledged by the staff at PC Gamer and their ethics policies have been modified in relation to this news: http://www.pcgamer.com/a-no... I'm at least glad to see this on the site.
I'll update my original article to acknowledge some of the changes in the policies regarding #GamerGat...
Yeah, we've setup an e-mail campaign for that.
It seems like something the N4G admins would want to push for that as well to cut down on these kind of blowouts.
Despite our differences, I think this is a reasonable approach.
I still agree with Godmars290 about the journalists, given how much control they have over the industry and news, but we'll have to wait and see.
Something more clearly defined for users outside of this blogpost -- maybe something in the guidelines section -- would still be preferable.
But this is a step up from the previous rule-set.
Just in case... here is an archived version of the article above.

You don't have to feed them hits if you don't feel the content about a "boob shaped" controller warrants it.

Journalistic impropriety articles are being failed, I imagine even retroactively to get them off the search engines.
N4G appears as if they've chosen a side and it's not the side that stands against exposing corruption. The failure of the article abov...
If you can't discuss the state of the gaming industry at a gaming news site, then where can you?
Game journos were caught colluding through an e-mail listserv to monopolize the media ring that determines the news YOU see. How is that not important?
A group of ideologically driven individuals are co-opting gaming media to push political agendas and most people have no idea what's really going on and you mean to tell me that an aggregator that spreads ...
First:
I instantly dismiss any critique that uses misrepresentation or purposeful lies to get a point across. If you have to lie to make a point, your point isn't worth hearing. If honesty discredits that point, then your isn't worth hearing, doubly so.
Second:
Anyone who in real life BECOMES a damsel in distress while decrying it in video games has instantly lost my respect. Crying and e-begging complaining about men/trolls oppressi...
Check my feed, mate. I couldn't give two rat pellets about McIntosh or Sarkeesian. A lot of people -- especially on 8chan and KiA -- are focusing on ethics reform.
If some people want to touch the poop and take the bait from the LWs, then that's their business. But we have the FTC and the FBI cracking down on the corrupt outlets and nefarious individuals. Also, get informed, GG is mostly all left-wing. Just Google it up.
Dan Stapleton may have been on the Game Journo Pros, but he makes some good points here. Especially this line:
"Today, a “ship it now and patch it later” attitude from publishers means that a game installed onto an offline console has a high likelihood of arriving in an unacceptably unfinished and buggy state. These never would’ve made it past QA testing five years ago."
Is it possible? Could it be true? With IGN's recent ethics policy going pub...
I doubt they can be sued unless it's literally copying the code of Hotline Miami. It is pushing that copyright infringement barrier to its limits, though.
Ahahaha... that's brilliant.
