OssK Posted May 8, 2009 Yeah, I don't know if anyone here likes IGN in the least. It's more of an enormous shitfest. From my end of the lens it's just fun, I have no feeling towards IGN, really they're just fucking up the game's journalist job, they're more interested in moneymaking than saying interesting stuff and are probably completely incapable of uttering any intelligent statement about games. Internet equivalent of tabloids and consumerist press which is not press at all in my opinion. So I have no grudge against them personnaly and as I can't do much about the fact that they are popular, I just ignore sites like that and keep on reading gamasutra or game studdies... 1) Fuck ! You are an intelligent person 2) Although couldn't they've contacted the Twitter team directly rather than creating an account ? 3) I can understand why they might do that since using one of the main IGN accounts with lots of followers4) promotes @igndotcom to all of their actual fans and 5) risks a bad reaction from anyone already following both.
