There are more than a couple games journalists browsing this board and a few game devs for really cool games so you'll have to try harder than that to get me to care.

zeal posted:

the "bribing" per say is done by the distributors/pr folk

a perfect example is when a distributor wants to promote a game and then they invite various media outlets to a big city, like london in order to preview the game

everyone gets lodged in a hotel and food/drinks are usually paid for by them

in some cases we get physical stuff like t-shirts, merchandise, artworks, etc

video game review by bolverkur

destiny

diablo with guns??? they called them mad but the awesome amsters at bungee still did it. its basically like borderlands in space with halos. pretty much the most epic game this gamer could want. killin dudes is awesome sweet on my xbone controler/dual sock 4 (MARKETING CHANGE THIS AS YOU WANT) and the guns feel real awesome. sadly then this game suffers due to a lack of master cheifs in the game but still it has plenty of awesome dudes you can play as also you can upgrade their armor and stuff which feels really epic. there are some bugs but I understand the game is still alpha so this will definitely be fixed honestly you cant be complaining if its in alpha guys. finally then my rating is:

9,5 / 10 :burger: (lmao I use :burger: instead of stars to be quirky and fun ;) )

needs some polish and has bugs and looting sucks but its alpha but it's still a gamer's game filled with epic fights and awesome fun!
