Can't spell ignorance without "IGN".
Actually you can.

Four feet isn't a massive distance to be sitting actually, especially with a 27" monitor. At least it's not as bad as Mitch's 6" comment, wow.
See i'm fine with game journalists not being totally versed in tech, I mean it's important but not that much so, but at least be aware of something as basic as game resolutions and what difference it can make. Hell not even games, they could go to any of their macs or personal computers and flick between all the different resolutions avaliable and see right there on the desktop what difference 1080p makes over 720.
I believe that, if I said something that was wrong or even silly in here some fellow GAFfer would be sure to point me where I was wrong and to correct me with proper information. Than I would be happy because I would have learned something new.
...really?
Yeah because it totally wasn't IGN that put out 3 minute video about these "throw away" comments.
It was IGN that put out this little snippet and titled it as so, not us.
They still will, as has been made clear by the tweets and the gaming press' defense of the tweets.
It should just be ignored, we are beyond them in technical knowledge and should ignore their for the masses drivel.
Indeed. How a major site can press such an article is lunacy. Well, maybe I would as well for the right priceCan't spell ignorance without "IGN".
hahaha GAF does not work this way.
Quote the people that are making ad hominem arguments.Wow that's a lot of ad hominem.
How many of us have a 20/20 vision?
No amount of ecosystem would stop me if I had a capable rig, to play Titanfall on Xbox1. I want that fun game that's fun to also look as nice as possible. Hell if I had a capable rig even my PS4 would stop seeing as many multiplats.That tweet and this... incredible. Like that lady at evening on the corner of the street...
I don't know if I should find it hilarious or sad that he doesn't even realize what went wrong there.I thought this was photoshopped and went to his twitter to confirm it...
It's actually true.
INCREDIBLE. What a complete joke in plain daylight.
EDIT: When someone asked about this not being ethical. He replied "I think you're looking too far into it. Do you think Aisha Tyler only plays Ubisoft games?"
Does Aisha Tyler actually work in a company that reviews games for Ubisoft? Is this guy actually admitting he doesn't care about ethics? This is the clearest case of someone offering his services to be bribed. Period.
Can we already guess the score he will give to TitanFall? 10.9?
As for 720p and 1080p difference - my dad spotted it right away, when I played games in our living room in 720p and later bought my own 1080p TV. He just said 'now that is much clearer looking' and I told him about resolution differences

Arthur Gies, why the fuck do you always drag yourself into these stupid situations that literally have nothing to do with you.

Um... why?
I haven't been following this thread, but I guess that the press got something grossly wrong, refuse to admit their mistake, talked down to their readers, and are now patting each other on the back on Twitter?
Who the fuck is Anthony Gallegos?
This. A thousand times this. I really don't get why the games journalism folk seem to have such animosity to the people they make content for. Yes there are some fuckwits out there who give you constant shit (deservedly at times) but don't paint us all with the same bloody brush!
I don't know 'bout you guys but I wouldn't trust a guy with glasses talking about what the naked eye could do!
How should I laugh at this?

Wait. "The naked eye"?
Mitch .. did you remember to put on your glasses before testing this theory?

Pathetic.. Gaming deserves a better press.
...really?
Ugh, come on.
It's stuff like this that just bums me out.
Seriously, that's just being a pretentious jerk. :/
I regret giving them page views. Insulting your fan base is not the way to get anything done.

Used to work for IGN.
Ryan McCaffrey is no doubt a fanboy. He was a defender of the DRM policies on the Xbox podcast. Quote: "It's not a big deal".
