There was a similiar story running in the Metro the other day about the same game. Fuck sake. Are people really this fucking stupid? I guess they are. :edit: Just read that article.

And there was me thinking that you were a reader - the fact that you write for it is somewhere north of wow :D To be fair I haven't read it much recently (save for yesterday) as I haven't been taking the train to Edinburgh so much recently. But rest assured, when I go back to Uni I'll be making regular trips with washing, which is good news for you as my preferred reading material is PC Gamer Private Eye goodness (gets some funny looks that). Also, having seen the Guardian's gaming pull-out, I was pretty impressed myself. They do seem to be making an effort. I've even StumbledUpon a few of their online articles.
