If that article was about Pc Gaming and world practice in how Blizzard treats their most devoted fans ,koreans, then what does that make Pc Gamer and it's epic 90+ Score  and the rambling of gitish schools girls selling D3 to it readers ?

     

    If this doesn't show you the power Blizzard has on the media, I'm not sure what does....

    Does PC Gamer update their scores daily? There is no way they could have predicted that situation.

    You mean this story that was never pulled?

    Are you team Azeroth, team Tyria, or team Jacob?

    If you can sit there and tell me that d3 is innovative, puishing the platform forward and neifiting gamers, I will reward you with a golden star. From the ground level of the gamer, it has been an onslaught of how mediocre this game from the delivery, graphics and content.

     

    Media is so powerful and Blizzard takes full advantage, that story in Korean is not going away, even if Pc Gamer takes it down.

    I think your problem is you are acting like their 90 is the final say on the game. It is not. That is why you don't let sites like that sway you one way or the other. A game you may hate could be a game I love and therefore we rate it differently. Get over their rating. And the story wasn't taken down so your point is moot.

    oo I see , they hide in the News section where it used to be on the front homepage. I am the type of person that goes from a gaming site home page, to the forums.. my bad.

     

    Should rename the thread, "From the Homepage"

    Haha, ok, what?

     

    All you have to do is scroll down...

     

    Those scoundrels...

    That Guild Wars 2 login screen knocked up my wife. Must be the second coming!

    The article was inbetween the Dota 2 and the Rift article. Now it is gone off the homepage.

    And? Why does it need to sit there forever to fill your agenda? Just stop. Have you been to their site? They rotate front page news ALL THE TIME.

    Perhaps the story is no longer new?  It was from a couple of days ago now wasn't it... I imagine something else has happened since then.

    No. 

     

     

     

    It has to be a conspiracy. 

     

     

     

    Nothing else makes sense.

    YOU JUST DONT GET IT. BLIZZARD IS CONTROLLING THE MEDIA AND THEY MADE THE ARTICLE MOVE FROM THE FRONT PAGE TO THE LOWER FRONT PAGE. 

     

    WISEN UP SHEEP!

    Old news get removed from the homepage. What's so strange about it? People don't want to read news from last week do they?

    What a joke.  I_Return do you have any other sweeping accusations that you would like to make against Blizzard so that other people can show you how ridiculous you look?

    This is the cynisism that is killing the market.

    I used pc gamer website  since the launch of the site. Articles posted stay on the homepage until they are pushed off by new articles. The Blizzard story was  on the front page, under the Dota 2 story. The articles are place on the homepage and with in it;s sub category.

    Why would this article not maintain it's position on the hompage. They have now also dumped the guild wars 2 article which was on the front page into the news sub category.

    As cynics, most people don't really think a lot about it, but not having articles on the front page makes a huge impact .

    It is halarious that Gw2 was so prominent for a week, and all of a sudden it is back to D3.....

    Its all a major conspiracy zomg!!  You remind me of Joseph McCarthy

    Blizzard is about as much so in name-sake as Bioware is these days.

     

    Only Valve is left as a reasonable, respectable company with talent.

    They will continue to use  clout gained from previous titles success to rake in cash and cut back on effort.

    I don't think moving it from the homepage to the news section constitutes conspiracy. They ran it on the front page until they got a new headliner and moved it to the appropriate section.

    My grandfather had a copy of the New York Times with the Pearl Harbor attack on it.  But those SOBs at the NYTIMES changed it the next day.  Why doesn't the front page change?  Especially for NEWS!
