Where's Our Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League Review? - IGN

Review codes have not been sent out ahead of time.

In a bad-vibes moment, they’re denying a huge outlet like IGN a review code. No matter what I think of IGN in particular (nothing good tbh), that’s not something I can find a real explanation for other than “We made DC’s Gollum and want to avoid bad press as long as we can”.

    but that sort of ignores the reality that many people preorder fucking games.

    It doesn’t, I’m saying that people that do pre-order games need to stop doing it because there is no real reason to do it.

    What kind of bullshit is this, I rather have fucking reviews out than letting the fucking companies just do as they may.

    You can just not buy the game until after reviews come out even if they don’t come out til after the game releases. Crazy, I know.

      Who knew telling people to stop preordering video games means they will stop preordering video games. Its almost like this shit has been said for well over a decade now with no impact at all, if not the problem getting worse due to volume.

      You can just not buy the game until after reviews come out even if they don’t come out til after the game releases. Crazy, I know.

      And those reviews have to come from the people who bought the game on day 1 especially if review copies aren’t given. Crazy, I know. So someone has to bite the bullet to actually say what a game is like.

      Edit: Again really, are you pointlessly supporting the act that corps will just hide their game’s dirty laundry until launch day, this helps noone besides the suits, we should strive for more voices before a game launches, not cheer for the silencing of voices because we find some of them obnoxious.

        Yeah, the people and companies who review games for a living.

        I’m not supporting it at all, I’m simply saying that if you’re of even average intelligence it shouldn’t make any difference what they do.
