The "Kotaku" Ban (Read OP)

So, over the past few weeks, I've been particularly...what's the word...well, without being too over board, disappointed.

First the posted that article about Kojima being 'disappointed' with MGS4 (which wasn't what he said) then they posted an absolutely HUGE spoiler for MGS4 in their article (not to mention it was in the title, so you saw it just going to the first page, thank god I managed to avoid it).

Finally, they went on some Kojima bashing spree when he tried to correct the western media who screwed up his comments.

Basically, Kojima came out and said that he wasn't disappointed in the PS3 or his development team, rather, 4 years ago he had his abmitions of what he wanted MGS4 to be, not knowing what the PS3 would / would not be able to do. Makes sense right? He's not saying he did a bad job, his team did a bad job, or the PS3 sucks. He's saying he had a vision that was very very ambitious, and he couldn't achieve that.

So Kotaku starts ragging on them, etc. Should I even bring up the bitter tears cried on GAF by their writers because they weren't invited to play MGS4 with the REAL press?

So, it seems silly, but I ask that you guy's boycott Kotaku. It's not even a journalism site, or publication. It's a blog. The site keeps running because of advertisements, so if we stop visiting, maybe they'll get their shit together.
