I don't think that is a way a proper way to treat him, its not fair to single him out like that.
How about doing the same to Bioware and all their lies before ME3, Sony and PS+ version of Driveclub, MS PR and their pile of lies?
Have some respect. Trying reaffirm themselves as journalist using a small dev as a punch bag is pathetic.
The whole Peter Molyneux over promising thing was a funny joke, now its ruined.
Small dev?
The point is this has to start somewhere, and someone who's been flat out lying(or telling non-truths, if you prefer that) is a fine place to start. Someone who's gotten away with THIS MUCH over the years certainly paves the way for others in the industry to do it since they see he gets away with it, is that so hard to see?
The interview was rough, but I think it was designed to be to never make the person being interviewed feel comfortable, and keeps them off-balance. Doing this usually causes a person to blurt out the first thing they think of, which hey, usually winds up being more truthful than something said in response to a softball. I'd imagine that we should be way past the point of pleasantries when it comes to PM...
