People do need to be told though, just to emphasis the point.

What’s the headline going to be?

“EIDOS ARE A BUNCH OF C*NTS”

Hardly ‘news’ now is it?

I’ve just spoken to the PR firm. I’ll do a story now.

Well, with takeovers featuring as prominently as they do nowadays, the change in masthead was the following logical step. A frightening one, at least for me…

Sorry, yeah, it’s just on his normal Twitter feed. Surprised it hadn’t been picked up on before. Not that it’s an unusual tactic over there, I distinctly remember similar calls going round the magazines with other games…

Here's one I found on google. It'll be interesting to see what they do.

I agree. That’s quite shocking, and ought to be written up, proper, with its own headline and everything. Gamespot still hasn’t published its review of the game either – I muddied my feet earlier over there, to check.

Haha! No, it’s not. Check out Guy Cocker from Gamespot’s Twitter feed – he says “guycocker call from Eidos–if you’re planning on reviewing Tomb Raider Underworld at less than an 8.0, we need you to hold your review till Monday.”

Just a statement of fact. It’s not getting 9s all over the place, is it?

By: Newbie101

Bit cheeky lads, I mean, I’ve read EG reviews with EG adverts about the game all over the site at the same time….

I’m not saying it’s the same, just saying.
