I friend of mine told me that Activision owns Gametrailers. False or true? His proof was that all COD games recieved good scores from reviews. I did a search and couldn't find any source or proof.

That's kind of a meager theory.

What is known is that Activision makes a lot of effort to charm reviewers, to an extent whereby you may speak of deliberate manipulations.

MTV owns Gametrailers. Their Rock Band reviews always mention that somewhere so you'll know they may not be the most unbiased thing ever when they review those games.

No. Maybe they just like Call of Duty... you know, the best selling, the most popular franchise of our time? If not all time?

Hmm, the HUGE Viacom at the bottom of Gametrailers didn´t convince you that its Viacom who owns it. Viacom is btw the same ones who own Paramount, MTV, Comedy Central and Spike Tv.

Mystery solved, Activision owns everything and the CoD games aren't actually good or liked by anyone.

Activision also owns millions of people that buy their games.
