Gamespots top picks for 5/9/11 for PC. Notice anything uninteresting?



8/10 isn't bad eh?, just two off a CoD full house!

...the first ever dedicated, official, Call of Duty fan-event was happening. You're -surprised- they mainly focused on that?

What next? Are you going to be accusing them of being PS3 fanboi's for reporting on nothing but Sony...during the E3 Sony press conference?

Well, that is because Activision released all the videos in one big cluster f*ck.

So of course it's going to happen. It's the biggest game in the industry, like it or not.

It would have happened if say, Blizzard put out 8 Diablo 3 vids right before launch.

Pick any big game you want. If they release enough media, this is going to happen.

Well, what did you expect? Game journalism sucks.

Captcha: "and edictint", apparently. Whatever this edictint thing is, it apparently sucks too.

I always thought Gamespot were a bit biased when it came to the Xbox.
I seriously can't beleive that games on the Xbox would be THAT superior to EVERYTHING that the PS3 had.
Especially inFamous2.

@True, inFAMOUS 2 was pretty epic, as are the Killzones and Resistance series. But aren't the CoD titles on both systems? I thought the earlier games were on the PS2 as well...

Are you trying to quote me?
Bit confused.
But yeah, COD is on both, but the OP has selected one thing about gamespot that wasn't really biased, so i added to it.
But often enough gamespot will go on about how the Xbox 360 version is more superior than PS3 on quite a lot of things, pisses me off.

Well Call of Duty XP was on; that kinda justifies it.
This.

Bagging them for covering the CoD con thing would like bagging the Escapist for covering E3.

It's the most popular game in the world. They're aren't bias because of this. This just makes sense.

Edit: K, I should have said "one of". Forgot about Mario and Pokemon but I will say neither have as active communities as COD's. Also I didn't say I liked it or whether it was good. What I said was it was popular with a ridiculous amount of players which is all that matters to Gamespot when they are picking stories for their readers. I'm sure during a Mario or Pokemon convention the Wii and DS would have streams mostly detailing them.

It is "one of" the most popular games in the world. If you don't like it that's fine but it makes it no less popular.

Lets see.

Your opinion

vs.

A string of the most successful game launches ever coming one after the other, and close to 28 million sales for its last iteration, a record everybody who knows anything about gaming knows the next will smash.

A guy on the internet doesn't like it. Stop the frigging presses, I'm sure that invalidates its sales and legions of fans.
Yes, how dare I find it mildly amusing that a bland FPS is being touted as the most popular game in the world. Just because it's famous doesn't necessarily mean it's popular, or even that most of the people who played it liked it (they probably did, but you get the point I'm trying to make.)

By the way, I'm a girl. As I thought was obvious from the name. And the icon.

I don't suppose you have any evidence to back up that meaningful argument?

Well it's probably one of the most popular series in the world. That said, it doesn't mean it's really good.
