What if I told you Todd Howard invented Fallout?

Honestly, I think the problem with gaming journalism is that we treat it like its supposed to be academic, when in reality most game journalists just want to express there views.

Most game journalists are only expressing there subjective opinion about games, for fanbases who have similar tastes to them. Its only because gaming companies take there word at all seriously that they are treated as anything more than that.

I have nothing against game journalists, but to treat there opinion pieces as anything other than opinion pieces is missing the point IMO.

Well, indeed, I agree with you. Yet, releasing false information is something that should not happen, neither to those who are treated academic, nor anyone else. Unfortunatley, this is quite common in "mainstream" journalism (not only concerning gaming journalism). I hope that made sense.
