Let the Half-Wit Speak

As the world anxiously awaits the release of The Next Big Thing(s), I wanted to revisit a topic I had written about a few months back: professional game review sites/publications and the sorry state of independent (read: not purchased and paid for) gaming media.
Not that I can do much better, but hell … in the land of the idiots, the half-wit is king.
Have a look around at the review sites. Do you really think a site with flashing banners of “Me love you long time for 5 dollah (wait for animation) IN GRAND FELONY YUGOCRAFT 2!!” isn’t whoring out the wordcount to GFY2?

From Ask Joystiq:
We start with the one we hear the most. This one comes from
bernesto: “What’s the best tool to optimize my PC for gaming?”This is an easy one. Every game depends on your videocard to pump out the graphics. So, if you want to get the most
out of your game, you have to tackle the GPU. We have one word for you — Powerstrip.
