I thought "gaming journalism" was a book you were referencing about this practice and it sounded like a good read.

- kuschku 10y agoAh, sorry. That was a bad choice of words. There was a time when, to do let’s plays on YouTube, you had to still get written approval from publishers, and back in the day, that meant getting into their press contacts program. Which in turn meant I got their press statements, half pre-written articles, phrases that should be used in articles, etc. When reading gaming magazines after that I always noticed the exact same texts being used, often only minor alterations being made. Sometimes they even suggested a range in which the rating for the game should be.
