WORST FORUMS GUY posted:

can i inject you with AIDS

sure

zeal posted:

also are you personally bribed by developers or does that occur higher up in the organization

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
