I will simplify my sentence just for you so you can fully understand the simple ideas i was stating..
My sentence consisted of three main parts!
A/ PC PILOT Complained that due to editorial deadlines, they didn't have time to do a proper review.
B/ I explained that the game (CLOD!) had took 6 long years to develop..during that time any pc fsim mag worth its salt would eagerly have followed it progress..so they would anticipate its arrival and be ready to offer a review forthwith without delay for all its eager customers who also would be waiting and expecting a review! ..
C/ And I then stated in real terms the game has already been out for ages!..ie WEEKS!..certainly thats long enough for any so called cutting edge reputable fsim mag to have conducted a thorough review!..after all they managed a preview!..surely an extra few days would have given them enough material to include a review!
Instead they chose to offer a lame excuse and just post pretty pictures in a double spread preview...
So why do you harp on about '' did the game get released early or late?''...you are a very confused person!..
Go and re-read my sentence and try your best to think next time before you just try and be a cynical immature knob!  |
And guess which guy in this thread has never worked in publishing?
Editorial deadlines are far from some sort of BS excuse, and I really doubt that that mag has a large staff. So if editorial deadlines are something that means reviews/articles don't make it in major gaming publications (like edge), and are something that commonly affects other publications, then why do you think some small, niche publication with a small staff is immune to these issues?
Annnnndddddd that before getting into the problems with "review" copies
