Let´s be 100% honest from the very start now shall we? There is a HUGE problem in the video game journalism profession. It´s been bad for years, but now it´s worse than ever before (it´s like their even trying to hide their dirty deeds anymore either).

And it seems like more and more people have come to the same conclusion as well. Because one can not turn the blind eye to the corruption in the video game industry anymore.

You don´t even have to look that hard to find it either. So i can somewhat understand why more and more Gamers just stick to the smaller Gaming news sites instead.

Because it´s way more likely to get an honest review (or opinion) on an independent webpage (or Streaming/video site for that matter).

And that´s probably why there´s quite a few newly made parody videos on the subject in question (corrupt game journalism).

Such as Gaming Wildlife´s “If Gamespot Were 100% Honest With Us”  video for example (which jokes about Gamespot, IGN, and Kotaku). However. It´s up to you guys to decide for yourselves, if the video is accurate or not.
