Consumer Reports Gets Its Game On

Posted by kdawson on from the mainstreaming-of-a-subculture dept.

Itninja writes "A few days ago Consumer Reports posted their first report on a specific video game: Wii Fit. From the article: 'Our testers ranged in age from 24 to 69 and included 10 women and five men. Users ran the gamut from regular exercisers to mostly sedentary folks.' Will this be a harbinger of things to come? Will CR be reviewing the next installment of Gran Turismo?"

  1. How would they do GTA IV? by jmoriarty · · Score: 1, Troll

    'Our testers for Grand Theft Auto IV ranged in age from 15 to 75 and included 10 women and five men. Users ran the gamut from upstanding citizens to flat out bitches and thugs. Half had never dropped a cap in anyone's ass before, and a full third had never jacked someone's ride.'

    If they started doing video game reviews like their normal reviews, I might just subscribe...
