Gaming journalists love pretentious games that try to 'further' the genre into the mythical state of Cultural Acceptance no matter how shallow and dumb it is. All in a desperate attempt not to have to lie to hot chicks at the bar about their 'profession'. Ironically enough these games and gaming journalists have the exact opposite effect in practice. Bioshock: Infinite, any David Cage game, parts of otherwise good games that takes itself way too seriously on some random social issue (read: Kojima games), etc.

The most recently made game at EVO has a 73 metacritic, a 74% at game rankings, and introduced the good old scummy F2P model to fighting games. Because grinding like you're a gold farmer in an MMO to get characters wasn't bad enough. Fighting games are clearly getting more popular

They're certainly not doing COD numbers, but between expansions, costume DLC and their cut of every credit bought on Japanese arcade cabinets, they're definitely making their money back.

It's like talking with doomsdayers or conspiracy theorists. Especially people that like ripping out the fun of games for "balance" and "competitive viability"

I heard that gaming journalists wear gloves on their feet and socks on their hands and use foodstamps to buy scratchoff tickets and have sex through a hole in a sheet.
