payola, game reviews, blah

An interesting read on the relationship between money and opinion in games magazines. So hey, in the interests of disclosure, I'll say that no one has ever given me even a free game in order to get me to review it! :) I do link through for affiliate sales, but I'll do that even on a game that I say up front is crap. Because just because *I* think it's crap doesn't mean *you* think it's crap, so I may as well still sell it to you, right?
