When you review a game who are you representing? Are you representing a gamer who is gifted with free games, a free console and so now all is needed is free time?
If you have not noticed it is not like the economy is going so fantastically that we can all afford whatever game we desire in a moments notice. Same goes for plunking down $400-500 for a console.
Game enjoyment and the cost of it is an exchange so how is that fairly and genuinely represented when it is all free?
Reality is unless you get the number of viewers sufficiently high enough you will not get a free console or a free game. So how are those reviewers getting by then?
Jim I generally like your work and your commentary is insightful but on this topic I must respectfully disagree.
The simple fact is vested interests, once there is free benefit given then it will shape opinions. Ask a lobbyist sometime about their job and it's effectiveness on how they shapes others opinions. : )
