I really don't think it's "bad overall"

I still have a few video game journalists I respect, even if I might not agree with everything they say or there methods.

It's just that it's too easy to bait gamers for hits these days, if people want to change video game journalism for the better then they need to start following those who provide real journalism as apposed to fanboy rants and flame bait.

I know right? I actually completely forget that Home was a thing.

What utter nonsense. So Microsoft decided to spend all that time and money going back on their policies and changing the Xbox Ones functions and settings, instead of just explaining to us all how and why the original policies were in our best interest? Yeah, a likely story...

Couldn't agree more.

We desperately need more video game journalists who aren't afraid to give their honest opinion no matter the backlash. Far too many of them now view the profession as a popularity contest and tailor their posts for maximum clicks.

Mobile games (mostly handheld console games) are more populer in Japan, however this illusion that they both somehow share the same demogrphic is rediculous and needs to stop.

Honestly, the guys a joke and an attention whore.

He's another one that makes the whole video game journalism profession look bad by being petty and appearing self important.

Before I've actually used it I wouldn't really like to comment, but I couldn't imagine the controller working well with certain games.

Didn't the term come about because gamers thought they were getting boned by MS's early Xbox One policies?

Not sure what relevance the name has now but it seems to have stuck.

"1. Gamer Entitlement"

As long as consumers are paying in order to play video games then a certain level of entitlement is to be expected, especially now when we have issues with quality control, DLC and DRM. Having said that though, certain gamers need to realise that not every game will appeal to them, they just need to accept that and stop moaning about what they dislike as if every game needs to be altered just for them.

Beyond: Two Souls will forever be one of those games that gets far more attention and praise than it deserves, simply for causing such a huge divide in opinions and for being something different amongst the vast ocean of generic crap.

8.5 is a bit much in my opinion too.

Slender, I can kind of understand. But I'm still trying to get my head around what makes Resident Evil 6 even remotely scary.
