@Gelugon_baat

Here you go.

That's an internet archive of Gamespot showing the Next Big Game coverage highlighted and titled "Promoted" above it.

@Gelugon_baat @liquidbutter I said "on the front page". There's a list of "Latest on Gamespot" with videos and articles. Their Next Big Game coverage was listed in that highlighted in a green background with "PROMOTED" written above it.

@Gelugon_baat @liquidbutter

Well I've been coming to Gamespot since 08 and I like all the long-time people working here. Kevin Van Ord, Shaun McInnis. Danny O'Dwyer, Chris Watters, Maxwell McGee, even Tom McShea and Carolyn Petit. I often express my wish that Brendan Sinclair were still working here on the news instead of Eddie Makuch.

Sure, I've had disagreements and criticisms of these people, but I haven't gotten sick of them. I still watch every Gamespot livestream with these people in it because I still enjoy listening to what they have to say, even if I don't always agree.

"Oh, you just wait. Eventually, you will get sick of him."

"Then you will get sick of them too. New ones come into the scene, they get on your good books, and then you get sick of them.

Rinse and repeat."

This isn't pessimistic? You're telling someone that their appreciation for any game journalist ever will always grow into hatred.

@battlefront1943 "promoted" doesn't mean "paid for ad" on Gamespot. their Evolve "Next Big Game" coverage was also listed on the front page as "promoted"

@eze_sl89 I agree, which is the same reason I hate the free 2 play business model.
