Best Game Writers 2005 Recognized

GameDaily.biz has given the nod to some of the best game writers in the business for this year. From Seanbaby to Jerry Holkins, the best wordsmiths got some recognition. From the article: "Game Informer Crew - Yes, this is a cop out, but the GI staff received so many votes as a group (especially from game developers) that they earned a spot on this list. It seems a bit of a shame that they have to work so anonymously. If they are doing such a great job, the writers deserve some of the credit on an individual basis. Next year, no more group votes."

Matt and the rest of the IGN crew only serve to propagate rumours and false speculation. They regularly take short news snippets that should read "This and this happened. Period" to things like "Hmm. This and this happened. THis could mean this is happeneing then, or this. Or maybe even this. Of course we have absolutely no proof of any of this and it's all just wishful thinking on our part to keep the legions of Nintendo fanboys happy and armed with this speculations as if they're real. Which they're not."

And before I get modded down, I love Nintendo. I just hate IGN's constant and regular speculation on every piece of news they post that really shouldn't be there. That's not what news is about. If i wanted fanboy speculation I'd read some random online blogs.

jeremy parish is by far my favorite game journalist/blogger, web or otherwise. when i was younger, seanbaby was it, but maturity and irony have forced my preferences in another direction (even though i can still appreciate a good lambasting in the end of good ol' egm)
