I realize you're just being a worthless troll but you're right. I aim to bring a little objectivity back to this fucking job.

Hang on, it's (allegedly) publisher Ubisoft pulling the dodgy shit here - if true, the magazine did precisely the right thing by going public with it. This is games journalism doing something decent, isn't it?
Credit where it's due and all that ...

*sigh* I was speaking of the state of mainstream game journalism in general.

Oh Christ. Really, must something as straight forward as this be explained? It was just an off-the-cuff remark, but if you really need to get into this:- If Ubisoft tried to bribe this magazine, it raises the question, if many other publications were given the same proposition and if any obliged them? Can one validly assume if any pre-release Assassin's Creed 2 reviews are legitimate?

Low rent zylon? Yes.
Owned? No.
Key of posting in any thread is being clear on what you're posting. Implied conclusions of a general nature while being specific on an example that doesn't support the conclusion, isn't 'being clear'.
On topic:
With this info out in the open. It will be nice to see what marks AC2 will be getting in the early reviews compared with later ones.
