If the game is bad it'll get bad reviews. Even if these outlets don't get code in advance, they will get one on launch and they will put their review out whether good or bad. Maybe they're not confident about their product and don't want to hamper their pre-orders, and seems like it's working on that front. I'd elect that to nosedive if game turns out to be average or less than average. Edited January 21, 2023 by gecko89 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously it cannot be done if there are 100s of outlets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doom review embargo lifted same day as release. It was id Soft so no idea why people doubted them. Though back then they hadn't made awesome game in long time. And people were kinda not expecting it to do anything special. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The major controversy that happened regarding this was from Gamespot I think - a reviewer was fired for giving a bad score to Kane and Lynch game - which had been heavily advertised on Gamespot and for which the site had been paid by Eidos. After that, they started things like disclosing "We got the Game Code from the Developer for free" statements. But this is very old news (PS3 era). I don't know if devs still do it, and I've not heard any recent controversies regarding paid reviews. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even when copying scenes directly from the game, the show actually mirrors the whole thing. Which is why Sarah is on the right in the pic.
