OXM Editor states:
"I think I have dedicated my life to writing things that nobody wants to read.
When I started reviewing games, it was for a love of games and a love of writing. I still have both. Then I started to take great pride in offering advice - both to consumers who wanted to spend their money wisely, and to developers/publishers who didn't have an objective perspective on their own work. As long as my criticism can be constructive, I feel I'm doing the right thing. But increasingly, the developers don't want to read reviews that aren't positive..."
After a magnificent 20-year tenure with Sony Interactive Entertainment, Phil Rosenberg, SVP of Global Partner Development and Relations, recently announced that he is bidding adieu at the end of 2025. Phil has been a stalwart and integral part of growing the PlayStation brand and, along with this team, has worked tirelessly over the years to ensure all gamers enjoy a vibrant experience on a variety of PlayStation products.
There is no way in high hell Sony would pay money for this, something so successful and not advertise it as an exclusive console game. There's just no way, they've done it for everything else, why would they not do it for this.
It's people who can't let a story go, there's no deal, they just probably supported a new Chinese studio with their China Hero Project and give them tools to help develop on their console. If Microsoft came along and offered them the same tools early on for their console I'm sure Sony wouldn't bat an eyelid.
Sony took a chance on a new studio early on and they benefitted from it, that's their reward.
Video game livestreaming has become one of the most influential aspects of modern gaming culture. Let's talk about it and the future of it.
On the tenth anniversary of Bloodborne, FromSoftware has made an announcement... of a minor Elden Ring update.
Unfortunately, the timing of this otherwise-inauspicious tweet feels pretty bad. Today happens to be the tenth anniversary of perhaps FromSoft's least-favorite child. While other games have received ports, sequels, remasters, and more, Bloodborne remains staunchly locked to PS4. Modding efforts from the community offered a technical boost, but were eventually struck down by Sony, which then continued to do nothing with the game.
Then what are we to do if Editors are lying about game reviews. He admits to not playing the whole game, dosen't understand the genre...and he is On peoples payroll...What does that mean? Then he says if they try to prove it he would only lie??
Why would an OXM Editor admit this on his personal blog???
isnt he being sarcastic?
Not only this editor but most of the editor (say about 80%) lie about game reviews. They may not lie 100% about game but hey boost some or downplay some games.
Who is surprised ?
After all they gotta keep their job.
I always thought they had a person for each genre. And why would you even Joke about lying about a game review, or be sarcastic. He calls himself a martyr. I guess I missed the joke of his blog. Why joke and say you lie about your game reviews at all...that just dosen't make since at all!
No Way! That cant be true!
