Publish an article about a game and
you'd better grow a thick skin.
I recently put up an article
comparing and contrasting the new Battlefield 3 and Call of Duty Modern Warfare
3 on technorati. Now I realize most of my stuff never gets a read but sometimes
it does and here's a sample of what I get when I get the attention of the wrong
people...
"...
do your research. BF3 Runs perfectly fine under Google Chrome. Geeez I hate
half-wit bloggers. With that said I own both games for the PC. To sum it up if
you want to run around like a rabid idiot with no tactics or squads tactics
play MWF3, if you want to use your brain and feel a lot more rewarded for using
tactics play BF3. I sure wish I didn't waste $59 on the patch called MFW3."
Now if you read the article
you'll likely find it's pretty even handed. I usually try to eliminate any bias
and only report what I've personally experienced. I've never been a fan boy of anything so
commentary like the example above mystifies me.
I'm fairly certain I spread the props and digs equally.
Ah well, you can't please everyone.
I've been considering a rewrite of the offending article to try. It's very succinct. Have a look...
ME LIKE BATTLEFIELD 3 LOTS OF PEOPLE SHOOTING GAME, IT VERY
PRETTY
ME LIKE MODERN WARFARE 3 GAME TOO, IT BETTER ONE GUY GAME
BUT MANY PEOPLE GAME NOT AS GOOD.
MODERN WARFARE 3 IS PRETTY GAME TOO EVEN WITH OLD GAME
RUNNER THINGY.
NO LIKE BATTLEFIELD 3 INTERNET WINDOW SCREEN THING IT KIND
OF MEAN TO ME.
NO LIKE MODERN WARFARE 3 MULTIPLAYER AUTO MATCHUP
THING. ME LIKE CHOICE OF INTERNET TUBE
COMPUTERS TO PLAY ON.
ME FINAL WORD IS BOTH GAMES REAL GOOD FOR DIFFERENT REASONS.
There, that should do nicely... :)
