Sandy hat recht. Die Korruption war tief verwurzelt. Aber die Korruption war auch doppelseitig. Bevor sie Werbung bei The Escapist kauften, forderten Verlage manchmal, unseren Redaktionskalender zu sehen, und warnten uns, dass sie nur dann Werbung kaufen würden, wenn wir uns verpflichteten, ihnen viel Berichterstattung zu geben.

From 1988-1993 when I was at MicroProse, game journalists were overt in their corruption. The magazines straight up asked for bribes for good reviews.
From 1993-1997, at id Software, the journalists had pulled in their horns a bit. Instead of just asking for money, they would pull shit like "We're planning to review Doom 2 in our next issue. Do you want to buy a full-page ad?" There was always a clear implication that a bigger ad would get a better review.
From 1997-2009 I worked at Ensemble Studios, and all our marketing was by MicroSoft so I have no idea what shenanigans journalists committed in that time period.
