Well, it's good to know I'm not the only one.

Porn. I seem recall them having a lot of ads on there game section linking over to their "babes" section. I don't know if they still do or if they have that section any more.MrEco wrote:You mean they specialized in video game screenshots? Or do you mean porn?DinnerX wrote:IGN had credibility?

It seemed pretty cruddy of them. Using google they are near the top of the search results for most game cheat/guide/tip searches, and even if it was a kids game they still had that stuff around.

I haven't read an article at IGN for at least 10 years now. I remember IGN being my favorite website when the N64 was new but somewhere along the way, something went wrong and I stopped visiting altogether.

BUT THE SOCIAL PRESSURE!!!! HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO MOVE MY E-PENIS AROUND THEN?????!?!?!KillerJuan77 wrote:not to mention the fact that it's not okay to judge a game just because you look weird while playing it, my dad looked at me like if I was a 3 foot bug while I was playing Zack & Wiki and I had no problems with it
Less IGN, more independent blogs =P

Re: Am I the only one that finds this article unprofessional?
that image seems a bit unfair tbh. Whilst their rating for GodHand was awful, it's a bit presumptuous to assume Imagine Party Babiez is a bad game they rated well. Havign seen that game streamed (for a joke, based on that image nonetheless - they played God Hand first), it turned out that it was a decent quality party game obviously aimed at a young audience. The person streaming even admitted that IGNs rating of it probably wasn't far off.
Of course, I'm not defending IGN, they're awful. But I'm sure people can find a better comparison than that - they gave an OK game an OK rating.

yeah they still have girls on there. But it's not porn. I don't really see the big deal. Think of IGN like Maxim Magazine but with more a focus on games.
