Weren't Haunted House and the new Alone in the Dark spectacularly shitty games? Wouldn't it be better to have a few sturdy tent poples rather than dozens of rotten ones that can collapse at any moment?

You might feel a little bit dirty after reading it.

We’re going to announce something big in the music space very soon. Let’s see how our people and our fans react to that, but I think it’s a very good idea.

This sets off so many alarms in my head, but I can't point to any reason why.

If nothing else atleast she admits it, most reviewers talk about how big fans of the originals they are, how new game evolved for the better and yet they have as much of experience as she if not less.

It's an old practice. I still remember reviews about talking LSL5 as "the fifth game in the series" and Ultima IX as the "Ninth game". You can practically stop reading at that point.

Has game journalism ever taken seriously?

Well I don't know how old you are but I do remember The Games Machine being kinda serious back in the '90s, granted they had their share of weird shit but still it was leagues above the shit that is being spewn nowadays.

As any kind of journalism, games journalism was always corrupt. It was just a different kind of corruption back then.

That sentence right there. :lol:
