With the Supreme Court scheduled to hear arguments later this year about whether states should be allowed to regulate the sale of violent video games, you might think game makers would consider dialing down the number of shooter titles.
Game reviews have been around since the mid-1970s. Play Meter was the first of its kind. During their time, it was mainly coin-operated machines that were covered, as certain arcade games that many of us consider classics such as Space Invaders were popular. Other publications sprang up, such as Arcade Alley in 1979. From then on, gaming journalism was on the rise. Electronic Games Magazine, Famitsu, The Games Machine, Nintendo Power, and others all gave way to gaming journalism’s growing popularity and importance. In the beginning, gaming journalism was about the love of the games, the history of the product, and giving potential consumers genuine insight. The passion was there. The commitment was there. The insight was there. And most importantly, the trust was there.
They've become nothing more than corporate shills. Rather than speaking truth to power, they're just looking at the latest clickbait no matter how false it is.
The straight up lies are annoying. Then journalists claim that a lie is an opinion. Um... no.
An ambitious cinematic adventure with bone-breaking brawls, Tenet of the Spark has been unveiled. But it won't be here until late 2026!
I do not get the Spider-Verse inspiration here. Does the journalist not know that you don't swap between or share abilities with other multiverse spider-peeps? This feels more like Assassin's Creed to me, where it's likely a bloodline/historical thing.

Such a stupid case, dont blame video games for fail parenting and idiot people doing stupid things. While you're at it, ban violent television, ban violent movies. Actually, why don't you have a meeting to regulate the sale of alcohol because that actually kills more people than videogames...oh wait, you tried that, and then it became even more popular...and im sure violent video games will do the same. Cant stop gamers from importing
Just the big boy companies jealous that even though we are in recession, video game sales are still turning out large profits
So they just overturned a law banning actual guns that kill people, but they will make a law banning video games with guns that don't kill anyone?
The world's stupidity never ceases to amaze me!
