New weekend, new episode of SPLASH DAMAGE!
An IGN editor last week tried to justify why the games media had not covered a PlayStation executive being caught soliciting sex from a minor. Meanwhile, games sites are quick to jump on “news” about conservative game developers simply existing. We discuss this lack of journalistic integrity along with Kotaku calling gamers “toxic a-holes,” highlights from The Game Awards, the mainstream media falsely associating video games with a Michigan school shooting, Kotaku being upset that a right-wing group agrees Activision Blizzard CEO Bobby Kotick should resign, Nintendo trying to hire more women for no reason, gamers’ hate for Ubisoft’s NFT announcement, PlayStation Spartacus, and much more!

To think, years ago I followed IGN for gaming news.
#MeToo
Being 36 I still fondly remember when all these gaming news sites just did gaming news.
I can’t believe I actually used to use their reviews 😞
Makes me wonder how Peer Schneider is doing.
all of leftism is child fucking apologia
Thanks for sharing this
Same reason why they don't say islamic terrorists... they don't want to make gays look bad by saying there are gay pedophilers in sony's senior management bebcause of "homophobia".
