There is no industry in the world more highly influenced by journalism than video games.
IGN's Daemon Hatfield reviewed Q-games Pixel Junk Side Scroller and gave the title an unremarkable 6.5. Within a few hours of publication Dylan Cuthbert, President of Q-games, accused Daemon of rushing through the game on on the "casual" difficulty level via twitter.
PSU takes a look at game developers that brought us great games this console generation, but didn't get the attention they deserved.
It’s that time of year again; the time our wallets dread the most. As we approach an inescapable surge of blockbusters and AAA titles, there’s no telling what we’ll be able to afford next after the dust settles and we’re comfortably perched on our sofas playing the latest games.
first comment yeaaaah >:)... i have all those games but i havent play neither of them :(
Wipeout HD is simply one of the best racing games ever made. It still saddens me Sony Liverpool is closed down. :(
Well if you are had the pleasure of owning a PS3 on release and are a regular purchaser from the PSN then you will already have most of the game titles from PixelJunk. Seen as the developer Q-Games have been producing games for the PSN since the PS3′s launch in 2007.
If you have managed to oversee these fab games and are also a PS Plus holder then you are in luck. As the games have been released from 79p.
I want them to release a sequel or an addon for PixelJunk Monsters. My favorite game by them.
Excellent conclusions in this piece. As the reading public we should DEMAND honesty and integrity from games journalists. If we hold them to this the whole industry will benefit.
I wonder if Daemon actually pulled that section from the review on purpose? Makes him look pretty shady if it's true.
This is easily the most hilarious review score related 'controversy' to hit the internet in a good two or three days.
