Rumor stating that High-Voltage took revenge on an author/reviewer of Conduit 2, for giving the game a 1/5. This combined with the recent Bioware reviewer's caught reviewing games, makes the game industry look really silly.


:lol:

I've not played Conduit 2 but from what I've played of the company's past titles they deserve every negative rating they've been given. How they became pegged as an up-and-coming bewilders me.

Pretty sure this is horsesh*t. The Joystiq community actually immediately jumped on Amazon to f*ck up that dudes book sales. He reviewed the game super harsh, then at the bottom had a link to buy his book on Amazon, which is just plain sh*tty.

Still, it wouldn't be surprising as this is nothing new in the game industry. Might we bring up Gerstmanngate scandal?

Which scandal is this? Not another developer/publisher reviewing their own game, is it? Or is that gerstman, as in the gamespot/kane and lynch issue? ehhhhhh, such a gross issue.
