Status : Online | hey, MMORPG fan or not (I'm not) - that's a superlative product. In a way I think advertising poor games could be worse than advertising games that deviate somewhat from the target audience.

Status : Offline | I agree with your sentiments...and I understand (but not agree with JH) what the earlier comment was about.
My point is that you are judged by the company you keep - and the advertisers you attract and it speaks very well for the Owner/operators (and the clientelle, so take a bow JH) of this website.

Status : Offline | At least The Wargamer doesn't seem to advertise for crappy games in the same way as, for example, Gamespy. It's so funny when I pass a TMNT advertisement for PSP/Nintendo DS whilst the site loads and find a review that gives the game 1 star (out of 5) or the like, even though TMNT had fairly good reviews on other platforms.

You mean like reviewing a soccer game?

Status : Offline | Alright...everybody friggin chill out...I was just making a point to play Devil's Advocate. When have I ever cared what anybody thinks about anything? You think I'd actually give a rats a$$ if a new lurker showed up, saw an ad for World of Warcraft and left because of it? PA-LEEEASE! [:-]
Besides, I actually had a subscription to World of WArcraft for a good 4 or 5 months and was absolutely hooked...I'm over the addiction now, but I did need to check myself into an out-patient program to get over it...
