Were the reviews really paid or people aren't buying it?

[Loopy]

Its source code for Battlefield site. Can it be any more obvious?I'm wondering because you have a habbit of posting things that don't really back up your claims.

And no i am not biased when it comes to DmC.
If i was id give it a 6.5.

But my rating of DmC is between 8 and 8.5.

I think id give it a 8. 5 because of the improvements.
So no i am not biased.
Then why post a video that praises DmC and then say to ignore it? That is biased. You do not like what the review says, so you ignore it because it does not agree with your view.


And i dont care about IGN! THIS TOPIC is about "Was the reviews really paid of?!?"

And i am pointing that IGNs 8.9 of DmC was not a correct score. That it did not reflect upon the game itself.
And that IGN have bribed before.Proof of this? So far only your conjecture and some conspiriacy theories.

IGN also scored the game a 8.5 for the PS3 version. So one of their scores is in agreement with yours.


So stop asking "Why do u care about IGN if u think they suck"

You're not proving anything about being paied off here, only that you want to argue to make yourself feel superior in a virtual world. Lovely.

I have no proof of IGN being bribed about DmC.
But isnt the stuff i posted about Mass effect 3 and Battlefield 4 not evidence of bribery involving IGN?

Then wouldnt that support the fact that IGN gave a soft review of DmC for sake of beneficial gain such as exclusive videos?


I swear discussing with you gives me a headache, and i am not trying to be mean.

Its just i point to Battlefield 4 evidence of bribery
And u totally ignore it and go talking about something that is irelevant


IGN being bribed with Mass Effect 3 and Battlefield 4 supports my claim that IGN are corrupt and could have been paid off for DmC, more than yours taht they were simply biased.

And exlusive videos as you pointed out gives more viewer ratings. But who gave that exclusive gameplay video of DmC to IGN? Capcom.
Dont you think Capcom simply said "Hey have this for free!"?

 

[Loopy]

That's cold man XD

And that is cheesy Quick, pass me the crackers to put it on!:lol:

I have no proof of IGN being bribed about DmC.
But isnt the stuff i posted about Mass effect 3 and Battlefield 4 not evidence of bribery involving IGN?It's evidence that IGN is biased just like any other gaming site. It shows that what they gain is a peak in page views. There is no actual proof for bribery.

Then wouldnt that support the fact that IGN gave a soft review of DmC for sake of beneficial gain such as exclusive videos? Or maybe somone who liked the game hapened to review it? Which is biased, but not biased based on a bribe. Is it so hard to think that maybe IGN was not bribed?


I swear discussing with you gives me a headache, and i am not trying to be mean.
You're not coming across as mean. You're coming across as stubborn and convinced that you are right. No one is right. All there is here is bias because you don't like the game.

Its just i point to Battlefield 4 evidence of bribery
And u totally ignore it and go talking about something that is irelevant
It's not evidence. How is that evidence. One code.

IGN being bribed with Mass Effect 3 and Battlefield 4 supports my claim that IGN are corrupt and could have been paid off for DmC, more than yours taht they were simply biased.
There is no evidence to support your claims. You sais yourself that you have no proff, but now you say you have proof? You're going in circles.

And exlusive videos as you pointed out gives more viewer ratings. But who gave that exclusive gameplay video of DmC to IGN? Capcom.We know that. But this topic is on about monetary bribes. You think this is a shocking revelation that a gaming company would give a site exclisive coverage? Guess what, it's not.
Dont you think Capcom simply said "Hey have this for free!"?

That's usually what happens. They send out demo copies for free. What you think they would ask IGN to pay for the demo? They also gave them videos, but not a monetary bribe. There is no proof of this.

Actually, the video is the one who is biased seeing as the things said are really one sided, mostly praise without any real criticism of any sort and the final score reflecting it.

But yeah Loopy, I see what you mean.

 

[Cabbage Detective]

Maybe I should change my name to Lilith:troll: Hur hur

please no :c

 

[Loopy]

Actually, the video is the one who is biased seeing as the things said are really one sided, mostly praise without any real criticism of any sort and the final score reflecting it.Yep, too biased. But on the other hand, I don't want to dismiss it entirely, just like I wouldn't a negative one. You need both sides to make a good middle opinion.

But yeah Loopy, I see what you mean.

please no :c

Maybe I will. She makes me laugh in a 'oh you're pathetic' way...plus her comments make me giggle.

 

[Terrutas]

But acknowledging it is rather irrelevant because it's incredibly ignorant and therefore holds no weight at all. So what's the point in even addressing it?

It's stil something to watch, at least for me so I can see the extreme other side and have a little laugh at it. Maybe take in a few good point or bad points depending on the viewpoint of the video. Being so extreme like that is ignorant in a video for positive and negative, but sometimes there are small things in there that could be usful. But that's just me.

There's almost nothing not worth waching, reading or hearing (unless they're sicko nutcases).

 

[IncarnatedDemon]

What video are we talking about? I am confused...

 

[Loopy]

The overly extreme positive one.

So you're saying you're watching it for the sake of watching it while taking barely any insight at all? That means it's not a good review and that it isn't worth your precious time.

It almost means that PewDiePie would be just as productive...almost.

Kinda But I do gain something from it- giggles. Kinda like watching those crazy KKK people. They're nuts, but you can laugh at them bcause they're so ignorant and honestly think they are right. That's how I see it anyway.

It almost means that PewDiePie would be just as productive...almost.

I heard about him recently and I am staying away. I have not heard good things at all about that.

 

[Terrutas]

Well, what you do with your time is your choice and your choice alone, I guess. I disagree with wasting it on such ignorant views. But it's your call, not mine.

This is going to sound so cliche, but I respect your opinion on that.
It's not like I do it all the time. Sometims I just have to unwind with some extreme ignorance. It makes me laugh that humans can be like that.

 

[IncarnatedDemon]

You said yourself that you have no proof that IGN was bribed. You aslo say that IGN is crap, so why do you care about them? Make your mind up.
Why do you want to argue anyway? Because I do not agree with you?

I have no proof of IGN being bribed for DmC. But for Mass Effect and Battlefield 4 it seems like they have been bribed. I posted the evidence, you can look at it yourself and get back to me on that.


I dont care about IGN other than viewing their stuff for unserious reasons. I never buy a game because of IGN.

But the topic of this thread is to discuss sites like IGN on whether they are paid off for their reviews or not.

And i dont want to argue. But i hope you adress the Battlefield 4 source code that shows IGN prediciting B4 as Game of year, and the Mass Effect advertisements.
Adress them and tell me again "IGN isnt a company known for bribery".


Or is that to much to ask?

 

[Loopy]

I have no proof of IGN being bribed for DmC. But for Mass Effect and Battlefield 4 it seems like they have been bribed. I posted the evidence, you can look at it yourself and get back to me on that.Nothing to do with Capcom. This is not a topic about EA and their business practices.

The topic is did Capcom pay IGN for reviews, not did EA bribe IGN.

And i dont want to argue. But i hope you adress the Battlefield 4 source code that shows IGN prediciting B4 as Game of year, and the Mass Effect advertisements.That's a site source code that tells parts of the site where to be displayed. Things like banners. Also, don't IGN have access to pre sale copies.
Plus this is EA we are talking about NOT Capcom. Just because EA possibly did this does not mean Capcom did. You are being irrelevant bcause this topic is not about EA.
Adress them and tell me again "IGN isnt a company known for bribery".
Who knows and who cares.

Or is that to much to ask?

What forum are we on? Oh yea, a DmC one. This has nothing to do with Mass Effect. And what you have shown is not proof enough. Are you really so desperate for me to tell you that you are right and I am wrong?

This is about DmC, and for DmC we have no proof. The only thing we can say is that IGN got exclusive content which would give them a peak in their site hits. That is all.

 

[Terrutas]

Oh yea, a DmC one

Uh.. I don't know about that.

Could you please stop with "are you desperate", "why do you care about IGN" and "are you arguing with me for superiority" stuff?

Mass Effect 3 advertisement on IGN, and the Battlefield 4 source code of IGN saying predicting Battlefield 4 for goty is relevant when you want to discuss if IGN´s review of DmC - whether it was paid off or not.

Is it a proof of DmC being paid off? No. But it´s relevant and i have not said anything about it being proof of DmC being paidoff.

Or do you disagree that IGN´s history of bribery has no relevance in discussing the possibility of their DmC review being potentially biased because of bribery? Yes or No on that please.

The KKK isn't how it use to be though. They aren't those extremist. Still ignorant as all hell and total a$$holes but, not as freaking bad as people like the Westboro Baptist Church. The KKK do their meetings in orderly fashions nowadays. Driving around town I saw a sign that said "KKK Meeting 7:00, We have cookies."

I was just like huh, will you look at that. They got themselves some tasty cookies in between all that hate speech.

 

[Loopy]

Could you please stop with "are you desperate", "why do you care about IGN" and "are you arguing with me for superiority" stuff?That is what you are coming across as. You ram what you think at other people and expect them to accept it as gospel. This isn't the first time either that I've seen this.

Mass Effect 3 advertisement on IGN, and the Battlefield 4 source code of IGN saying predicting Battlefield 4 for goty is relevant when you want to discuss if IGN´s review of DmC - whether it was paid off or not.
Well, if you don't know if IGN was paid off, why bring it up? The most we can assum is that there is a possibility. No more and no less.

Is it a proof of DmC being paid off? No. But it´s relevant and i have not said anything about it being proof of DmC being paidoff.You have. This what you are doing now. The line of thinking being: well if EA can gt IGN to accept a bribe, then Capcom has as well.

Or do you disagree that IGN´s history of bribery has no relevance in discussing the possibility of their DmC review being potentially biased because of bribery? Yes or No on that please.

Welcome to th internet, it's a little like real life where people will not agree with you. Ramming what you think down people's throats will not change this; strangely enough, it will make people disregard your opinion even more.
If you want to think Capcom bribed, then go ahead. And before you deny it, look back at the post history. When you were refuted on that claim, you turned to how EA might have bribed just to save face. Who knows what has happened.
The game is out. No point in beating a dead horse.

You stick to your ways and I'll keep mine.

The KKK isn't how it use to be though. They aren't those extremist. Still ignorant as all hell and total a$$holes but, not as freaking bad as people like the Westboro Baptist Church. The KKK do their meetings in orderly fashions nowadays. Driving around town I saw a sign that said "KKK Meeting 7:00, We have cookies." I hope they've changed in some way. Last I saw was a guy claiming to be a wizard who hated his grandchild because she was half latino and wanted to lynch her. Totally sick.
Those baptist people are terrible too.They just believe their own bull and pretend how only they will be in heaven just to feel better about the terrible things they do.

I was just like huh, will you look at that. They got themselves some tasty cookies in between all that hate speech.

Cookies?! Is this like the 'join the dark side' joke?
