is anyone else sick of the gaming media

[quote user="UnyoBro"]

Gaming news sites report on this stuff because that's what people wanna read about. If you went out and made your own site you'd realize that the handful of people interested in your stories isn't enough.

.

What is real gaming news? News you personally care about? Go make a blog.

.

Maybe they focus on negatives about Nintendo because that's all there is to report?

.

A news site with no bias would be incredibly boring. Since the birth of playstation? Lol ok, I guess you're too young to remember how bias stuff was before that time. I remember. Pepperidge farm also remembers. Anything that wasn't Nintendo was treated as
if it was inferior, everything had to be compared to what they were doing.

were my teen years the sega master system my child hood so your too young to remember crap is nonsense i have seen how it has changed and since nintendo caused sony to enter well the media has been on a downward spirial. there is plenty of positive stuff
about nintendo like how well the 3ds is doing. there is also the fact that although yes the wii u could be doing better 5.98million is no small number

????????Is Anyone Else Sick of All The Console Problems???????

Just got kicked out of a different game again same exact thing smh. The issue with the billing I just wanted to point out the regression between systems. But believe it or not I only scratched the surface with the problems I've been having.

 

????????Is Anyone Else Sick of All The Console Problems???????

Of course I read it, so I took some time to write you a long answer. About the payments as I mentioned, it has no direct relationship with the console, the payments will work the same on PS4, probably the same on Switch, what changed was the billing process,
the same thing happens with HBO, Android, Netflix and many other services . If I suggested that you delete the automatic payments, it is because you wrote this: "The following week I get charged for another month. When I called to find out why I was being
billed the guy responds with the memberships get stacked, it's the way their system works." And I understood that you needed help in this regard, you never mentioned that this problem was solved, the written communication tends to be misunderstood, and the
more specific it can be, the better it will be.

Another thing is that we are not the support team, this is a forum where people seek help, some of us know more or less about some topic or another, if it is in our hands we help, if we do not suggest that you contact the expert team . We do this because we
are passionate about collaborating with those who come here looking for help, because we love our games community, we work and do everything possible to make this a better place, we are not paid for this, we do it in a disinterested way, using our time and
effort to help solve doubts or problems of others, is our way of collaborating to make Microsoft platform better every day, because we believe in it and we are passionate about being part of it.

If you are convinced that the problem is not connection because it is something that you already checked and discarded, then it must be some problem referring to the console, this type of situation that you describe it is better to handle it with the support
team, chat or call depends on your preferences

We know that we are not perfect, and part of our mission is to improve ourselves every day, thank you for your comment and sincerely wish that you solve your problem. A greeting.

 

Why not make your own, OPie?

 

I really dont pay attention to the big gaming sites. Yeah I post articles about games from them but thats about it. I honestly rely more on word of mouf from fellow gamers

You are wrong. Take off your nostalgia glasses.

 

Gaming "journalism" is laughable and disgusting.

i am not wrong i remember the gaming media was no where near as bad before sony came intro gaming. they uses to report on games that were coming out for various systems and the focus was on the resolution the game ran at.

 

Believe whatever you want but you're still wrong. Sony is not some big evil that ruined gaming journalism, it's always been about who's popular and (probably) who has the biggest wallet.

 

it was nothing like that back in the snes and mega drive day

 

I don't check gaming media because I think its all BS. Though there are times when after I buy a game I read some reviews just for fun.

I never read reviews before buying games . If I am interested in a game ill buy it regardless. It also depends on how much I want to play a game. If I want it right away il buy it, if I can wait ill let it go on sale. I trust my own judgment more than some
geek on the internet.

 

I read IGN daily, but I don't take it seriously...

 

Do something about it then...

 

That could apply to most things in this world. Most things have changed a good bit in the last 20 years and the internet was nothing like what it is these days. Sony didn't change the way media is handled, that's just the way things have evolved. I've been
around just as long as you to witness the changes. I don't know why you seem to think that Sony is the root of all evil, but that's a pretty big stretch to try and say they single-handedly changed journalism and the media.

 

Money, greed, and advertising has lead to the demise of quality games coverage in my opinion...
