I can't believe game developers are still denying game journalists life-saving easy modes.
Lol you mean reviewer-modes is what they should be called.
I could understand their argument if the game was like those incredibly difficult games on NES or other older consoles, like Battle Toads or TMNT (even though they're fun), but I'm pretty sure they're not. It's just that most modern video games are quite easy and hand hold people so much that when a slightly difficult game comes out the game journalists prove just how coddled and retarded they really are.
If I was to ever develop the game, I would offer a "journalist" mode that does not allow saving or loading. Forget Ironman mode, they'd be going full arcade.
Lol, send them copies that LOCK it to that mode and don't' allow them any other mode.
Make them special "review copies" that have all these promises of "special features" in it lol.
Lol my favorite part of that quote is "for whatever reason."
Yeah maybe cause it is a freakin' game that is supposed to be.... somewhat of a challenge?
