NOTHING HAS F------ CHANGED 10

Gamergate (harassment campaign) Article Talk From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia For other uses, see Gamergate (disambiguation). Gamergate or GamerGate (GG)[¹] was a loosely organized misogynistic online harassment campaign and a right-wing backlash against feminism, diversity, and progressivism in video game culture. [2][³] It was conducted using the hashtag "#Gamergate" primarily in 2014 and 2015.[1][4][5][6] Beginning in August 2014, Gamergate targeted women in the video game industry, most notably feminist media critic Anita Sarkeesian and video game developers Zoë Quinn and Brianna Wu, among others.[7][8][9][10][11] The harassment campaign included doxing, r--- threats, and death threats.[12][13][14] Gamergate proponents ("Gamergaters") stated that they were a social movement, but lacked well-defined goals, a coherent message, and leaders, making Gamergate difficult to define.[15][16][17] Gamergaters claimed to promote ethics in video games journalism, claimed to be protecting the "gamer" identity, and opposed what they asserted as "political correctness" in video games.[18][19][20][21][22] Read Date Target Gamergate, online harassment campaign in 2014-15 that targeted women in the video game industry. The attacks were attributed largely to white male right-wing gamers who railed against the rise and influence of women and feminism in the industry. Gamergate served as a recruiting tool for the growing alt-right movement and helped spur the online “Pizzagate" conspiracy theory, which soon spawned the wider QAnon conspiracy movement. …………………………....…..……….….....

[2][36] Gamergate led figures both inside and outside the gaming industry to focus on methods of addressing online harassment, ways to minimize harm, and prevent similar events. [37] [38] [39] [40] Gamergate has been viewed as a contributor to the alt-right and other right- wing movements.[21][41] Video game developer Brianna Wu

X Journalists would make claims of people like Anita Sarkeesian "playing video games all her life" when she openly admitted many times she is not a gamer and only starter recently (when it wasn't for an interview). Various developers trading sex or money for good reviews got exposed, journalists who accepted got exposed. People became a bit more critical about supporting a game just because the developer has a victim complex stating tat their game could have only failed because of sexism, instead of their own poor developing skills. What really sealed the deal was opposition often faking their own harassment. Anita sarkeesian and Zoe Quinn have been caught multiple times screenshotting "harassment" while showing that the harrasser's account name in the login. Or when someone called the police to help Sarkeesian against a "very real threat" she was posting about, only for police to find the harasser's messages were coming from her IP address. I just want honesty from the community, and the lies were mostly exposed by the "dreaded" gamergate. 1.3K views • View upvotes 26

Outlets who chose to rush the review, such as Eurogamer and Polygon, gave high scores that lured their readers in buying a broken game Simcity's post-release reviews were much less positive due to this problem, and the game's Metacritic average dropped from 91/100 to 66/100 in a week (64 today), with thousands of extremely negative user scores. Some outlets released updated reviews of the game, with Polygon rating the game four times Today, the game has dropped the always-online requirement, despite creator Maxis originally stating that it was impossible.

THIC FAIL SHADY GAMES JOURNALISM S.GD/GGKOTAKU FRIENDS AT KOTAKU Several writers working at Kotaku, Gawker network's gaming outlet, have been accused of giving disproportionate and biased coverage to their friends. Controversial Kotaku writer 1 Patricia Hernandez has lived together with her close friend 2 Anna Anthropy, developer of Dys4ia, Redder and 2 Mighty Jill Off, and has given her positive coverage in six articles. Four of the articles were published after Her- nandez had lived with Anthropy, none of them contained any form of disclosure addition, Hernandez admitted to dating v Christine Love, and wrote about her game Hate Plus twice Both articles have a dispropor- tionate number of links encour- aging the purchase of Love's work and, once more, no disclosure I novel developer Don't you ever feel really strongly, sometimes, that you just want a nice hug? It doesn't bother me Kotaku was hit by a scandal in August 2014, due to its writer Nathan Grayson and his relationship with the developer of 5 Depression Quest. It was discovered that the developer cheated on her boyfriend with Grayson, who had previously covered her and her text adventure very positively in two articles-one for his previous job at Rock Pa- per Shotgun, and one for Kotaku, published about a week before their affair. Grayson and the developer are proven to be acquainted since before this last article with the two traveling to Las Vegas together and Grayson participating as a tester since a very early version of Depression Quest- with his name appearing in the credits. The developer of Depression Quest was featured as a guest writer on Kotaku shortly be- fore releasing her game, and is also a personal friend of Patricia Hernandez.

History of Ethics failures DoritoGate

ETHIC FAIL-SHADY GAMES JOURNALISM S.GD/GGDORITOS THE GIFTS OF DORITOSGATE Doritosgate is a 2012 scandal involving collusion between advertisers and gaming press, popularly symbolized by the blank stare of game journalist 1 Geoff Keighley being in- terviewed while surrounded by Doritos, Mountain Dew and promotional posters. Doritos oritos oos XP DEWXP.com Doritosgate originated with an editorial written by Eurogamer contributor and non-game journalist 2 Rab Florence , which discussed the lack of ethical standards of the gaming press, and their excessively friendly relationship with game industry PR people. Florence criticized the Games Media Awards - an UK event sponsored by game publish- ers where game journalists receive awards from PR representatives. 2 The GMAs shouldn't exist. By rights, that room should be full of people who feel uncomfortable in each other's company PR people should be looking at games journos and think- ing, "That person makes my job very challenging." Why are they all best buddies? What the hell is going on? GAMER A competition held at the 2012 GMAs awarded game journalists who advertised a cer tain game on twitter a chance to win a Playstation 3. Florence quoted in his article some game journalists who had defended this competition from accusations of bribery, and argued that, although certainly innocent of corruption, these journalists were hurting their credibility with this endorsement. One of the journalists Florence quoted, 3 Lauren Wainwright threatened legal action.

Wainwright, an enthusiastic praiser of video game Tomb Raider, was discovered to have listed work with the game's publisher Square Enix in her resume (references to which she deleted), and to have written reviews of their games- which she had denied doing She has since admitted her threatened lawsuit was "a mistake Florence's article sparked a very large discussion even before the censorship controversy gave it a larg- er echo, with articles on nearly every major outlet. Kotaku editor in chief 4 Stephen Totilo, when he was asked about coverage of the topic, dismissed the entire affair as "not important" and the same old tired nonsense". He thoroughly apologized after re- ceiving some scathing criticism, and proceeded to write a very lengthy and exhaustive article In his piece he addresses the long-standing accusation of being "too cozy with the game industry" faced by the press, which, he admits, operates at what would appear to out siders as "the brink of bribery". He has had to turn down or give away regular gifts from publishers, including things like a mini-surround system, a chess set and a trip to Disn- eyland On the other hand, though, he also says that "criticism of the gaming press is so com mon it can become white noise", and that valid complaints are mixed with "a sea of misreadings". He is confident that, counterbalancing the too many press releases mas- querading as news, there is a lot of good reporting, and he is hopeful that there will be more in the future Minor scandals about game journalists accepting gifts still surface fairly regularly.

ETHIC FAIL -SHADY GAMES JOURNALISM S.GD/GGNUMBER UNRELIABLE NUMBERS Consumers' trust is particularly valuable for game reviewers, and the gaming press has historically been short of it - and under constant suspicion of colluding with game pub- shers to inflate scores Sometimes, these suspicions have been very strongly fueled In 2005, gaming website GameSpy faced accusations of collusion for their review of Donkey Konga 2 -a rhythm game published by Nintendo, which at the time used GameSpy for its online services Freelancer Nick Marangos, the reviewer, revealed that GameSpy had heavily altered his work without his consent, making his review much more favourable towards the game and changing the final vote from a harsh 1.5/5 to a passing 3/5 The ensuing backlash prompted GameSpy to remove the review, and at the time the event had heavy publicity - including a 2 Penny Arcade strip What did I say? Did I say two point Pive? Because I Meant... Pour point Pive 2 A large game journalism scandal took place in 2004, with the release of Atari's 3 Driver 3 . While the game was critically panned for its derivative for- mula and, especially, for its buggy and unfinished state, its release was preced- ed by two near-perfectly scored 9/10 exclusive reviews on British magazines Xbox World and PSM2 - both belonging to Future Publishing 50 Accusations of corruption were also fueled by a forum post published before the reviews from a user claiming to work at an UK magazine. The poster claimed that, in the rush for exclusive first reviews, magazine editors were agreeing with game publishers to trade higher scores for earlier review copies. He provided several ex amples of games whose early reviews had higher scores, and stated that Atari was attempting to trade early review codes for Driver 3 in exchange for a score of at least 9/10, but the unfinished version of the game being offered to reviewers wasn't up to expectations In the huge uproar that ensued, Future's official forums heavily censored discussion of this topic. Eventually, Future deputy editor Nick Ellis responded on the forums, denying all accusations of bribery but admitting that the reviews were based on an unfinished version of the game, and on Atari's promise that the bugs would have been fixed before release EDG Future OF THEFT AUTO 4 Future publishing came under scrutiny again in 2011, when freelancer Richard Stanton held a casual Q&A session on Twitter Stanton, who worked for Future's 4 Edge Magazine, answered several questions about his experience in the game review business. He stated that game publishers indirectly control everything" in reviewing outlets, and admitted that reviews changed scores be- fore publication. He stated that the dodgiest publisher he had to work with was Rock star Games, and that Edge's review for their game 5 Grand Theft Auto 4 had the vote changed to a 10/10 by the magazine, from the reviewer's original 9/10 When his revelations started to be get attention, Stanton hurriedly deleted everything, and published an apology and retraction, where he stated he had written "in a moment of anger", and that he wished for his statements not to be reported as fact.
