Hey Patrick, I don't want to sound negative ( I almost certainly will). But when you post sometimes, you (maybe unintentionally) say something judgmental or reductive about the subject of your post. In this post particularly you take a jab at Nintendo about losing financial support from customers and then taking a jab a Pokemon for being something akin to shovelware at this point. You can say whatever you want man, that's your right not only as a consumer of video games but also as a human being. But your method of presenting news that doesn't really satisfy you is polarizing to say the least and personally I could do without so much criticism in avenues that don't really call for it.

This is kinda how the site runs. It's not exclusive to Patrick.

Although to be fair, I completely agree with your point. I feel like their opinions can be shared via the podcast, blog posts, the quick looks, bombing the A.M., unprofessional Fridays, etc. etc.

Don't get me wrong - I love how GB is a personality-based gaming website, but I feel like their stances on certain things should stay out of posts like these, where they're basically relaying a trailer / release date / other information to us. There are much better outlets on this site if I want to hear their opinions on things (and I do, but not immediately when I hear any bit of news).

To the GB crew - just give us a bit of time when you post stuff like this. I'd like to create an opinion before I hear yours, even if I do agree with what you have to say.

But what Patrick says is true.....

This is Giant Bomb. You probably want to start reading Polygon if you want reports on events and news without an overwhelming slant.
