I've recently heard that Gametrailers messed up another comparison video, this time on Grid. Its normally Xbox360 vs. PS3 video. This time 2 PS3 videos are shown and somehow the PS3 version still loses. I also believe the Asassin's Creed video wasn't done properly, the settings wasn't set on PS3 to full. Alot of ppl say Viacom owns Gametrailers and that Microsoft has a huge advertising deal with them. I just wanna hear everyone's comments/thoughts on this subject. Also, if you wanna say that this is just a simple mistake by GT, then they need to put up the correct videos.
P.S. Anyone whos ever worked in sales or any job where your selling stuff knows that its not allowed to upsell competitors products, unless your store sells nothing close to what the person is looking for.
Yeah I notice that alot of fans for one system will say its just a mistake, and the others will say conspiracy. If have any examples you wanna throw out there then by all means list it.
Now this is what i'm talking about, fans of the Xbox 360 will say this is just a mistake, and are willing to sweep it under the rug like nothing happened. Fans of PS3 are tired of this. I've seen forums where fans of Xbox will constantly throw that they have superior games and say the overall reviews are better for Microsoft. Makes you wonder why scores are so high even if the games have flaws.

Yes they did! Stay away from Gametrailers for your own good! They're the most bias S.O.B on the web. Their boards are run over by Sony fanboys and even worse their moderators make me sick!
Last year they were among the biggest critics of Gamespot for their reviews on PS3 games. I'd rather eat shit than to be a member of their boards.
Another site you should avoid is N4G. Uglier than 60 year old foul mouth Thai prostitude infested with STD.
The Media did overhype the PS3 before it's launch, but that doesn't have anything to do with reviews... it's the opposite actually; overpraised it (before even the machine was out = No reviews) just to bash it nowadays.

That is not the fault of game reviews. If anything it probably was sony's fault. That is to say if sony had anything to be at fault for. They paid for the marketing and just like the 360 and the wii, people bought the system. I'm sure the over exaggerations of system specs that sony boasted is the only reason we are talking about the over hype. Ps3 was being anticipated so much because of the PS2's success. It also released in the midst of the "next gen" era.

Ok, i'll stop being paranoid when they put up the correct videos. I mean how can you not double check the video to make sure its correct. After what happened with Gamespot, you would think that would be issue number 1. 1st the Assasin's Creed video now this.

.... and then there was that "firing a guy over a review" debacle.
