IGN Caught Stealing Reviews

IGN lost its way years ago, I used to find it a useful site but when their reviews started to sound more like adverts I...actually the whole site is now wall to wall adverts from what I can see lol

Yep! They spend months hyping up games and receiving money for paid priority placements plastered all over the site and then give these games medicore review scores contradicting all the publicity the said games received previous.

 

I remember when the videogame media was in the gamers interest but IGN are only in it for the money cutting deals with publishers and grabbing clicks. Back in the day, if a game was shit, it got no publicity no matter how big the brand or who the publisher was.  Now whoever pays them with whatever product; it gets publicity guaranteed. 

 

Glad they got held to account for this review debacle though - it's only a small consolation but it fuels distrust to the IGNorant people who still swear by them.
