At this point I’m going to Ladbrokes and betting against everything Kotaku promotes. They are like Jim Cramer of the gaming industry.

    The fact that capital-G Gamers are still hell-bent on the GamerGate-era war against Kotaku is deeply amusing to me.

    Gaming journos bad, something something.

      Sorry but Kotaku has always been 100% garbage, either bad writing, way behind the news, or both at the same time.

      Except if its labor related, they immediately remember how to write.

      It really bugs me how every scandal co-ops the -gate from the Watergate scandal to try to give it more legitimacy.

      The Hotel was the Watergate Hotel. There is no gate in Kotaku or Gamer. Just another fundamental ignorance of reality the media has come to.

      I’ve been scrolling through the comments to see the reaction to this trailer and this is the only comment that made me legit cringe.
