When reading this website over the past month, a few certain writers come to mind when it comes to being unprofessional. First up to be discussed, Jim Sterling. The straw that broke the camel’s back was the impressions of the Kinect event. First off just because your fat ass had to stand for an hour or two doesn’t mean you have the right be a jackass, it makes you more unprofessional, but hey you are already the most unprofessional on the site. This site is in desperate need of a new reviews editor because it has been proven that you are incompetent as a reviewer. Hell, the editor in chief, Nick Chester is a better reviewer than anything that that pompous British piece of trash. To go even further, I probably could review games better than that troll. These changes and the feeding of this troll has been happening since about the time the Assassins Creed 2 review. The site has gone downhill since Anthony Burch and Brad Nicholson and podtoid ended.
The site recently has gone into a hardcore pro Nintendo and an anti Microsoft spin especially after the Kinect Conference. The troll (Sterling) does not need to be fed anymore.

Okay.
I'm banging my head against your wall of text.
Soooo....you don't like Jim Sterling? That's the gist of it then? Okay. You and like a billion other people.

Is the hate ending because Jim is moving to America?
jim is good rittur!
Yup, meh.
@Beyamor

Hasn't Jim been in the New World for almost a year now?

Actually, I remember the day exactly, since the Earth's axis tilted slightly when his plane landed.

Ba dum tish!
I'm sure Niero is taking this blog into great consideration and firing Sterling as we speak.
So this is...what, the 271st time we've seen this same subject tackled in the same useless, completely ridiculous manner? This is a blog. Not some serious business JOURNALISM establishment. Hell, if I'm not mistaken, Jim doesn't even consider himself a journalist anyways. Stop looking into it so much.
How dare you bad mouth Jimbo. i think you would find far more users that COME HERE SPECIALLY FOR JIM than people who agree with you.

Jim Sterling > Jesus.

The majority of us don't come here for profeshunal jurnalisums, we come here for the orginal Dtoid style which jim brings day and night.

Much love, thank you goodnight.
Hello. I love you. However, this hell tree with a face on it thinks you are a jackass and we can't argue with that.

In the name of glorious Devo and their badass album releasing this week I am hijacking this useless post in the name of DEVOLUTION!




This post has officially DEVOlved into amazing.
"The site recently has gone into a hardcore pro Nintendo and an anti Microsoft spin especially after the Kinect Conference."

The fuck? The Kinect conference was 12 HOURS AGO!

Since I disagree with you, I'll follow your approach to rhetoric and say: you are an asshole that doesn't know how to blog, and shouldn't be allowed to blog. How does that feel?

Who gives a fuck?
You're mother's unprofessional. Last night she wanted to talk to me afterwards. How unprofessional of her...
Goin around, not giving a flying fuck
If you claim that you can write BETTER game reviews than i.e. Jim, do it.

Just do it.

And then, as fanboys of Jim Sterling, no matter the quality of your text, we'll laugh at you.
Destructoid: unprofessionalizing the video games media since 2006.
I won't laugh at you. I just think you should write a better blog that actually says something instead of bein' a lil' bitch and crying about Jim writing what he wants on the blog he writes.

All I see in this blog is bitchin' about Jim Sterling. I expected some substance considering the headline.

@Poe : I love you bro!
WAAAAAAAAAH WAH WAH WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!
Well Jim might've not had his best review of the Kinect, because sometimes it's hard to write about things that a) you're not necessarily sure the future of the product will be groundbreaking b) not given alot of details about how it will be used.

No offense, but the Microsoft Kinect didn't necessarily have the best presentation for it's new product. Everything lies in the presentation, and form a multi-billion dollar company, I was expecting a bit more. And if you're not liking Jim's reviews, maybe just don't read it?

I think DToid's doing a fine job, and haven't noticed this downward spiral.

Joining the picture wagon

Is there a correct way of reviewing things cause' I think I've been doing it wrong.

(old personal favorite)
so let's feed the troll by saying we shouldn't feed the troll.. people like you make me love jim sterling even more. congrats.
I've been with this site for a long time now. I've seen anti-sterling people come and go. It usually happens when sterling happens to have a different opinion about a particular game or system than the hater likes. They're usually fine with him making fun of something they dont give a shit about, but the moment his comedy bleeds into something they take seriously they go all batshit.

The truth is that Sterling is a part of the structure that makes destructoid so great, along with all the other colorful contributors. They are site that lets people speak from their own opinion. In that moment, in the video you mention, that was the reality that sterling was experiencing. Most importantly it was much more interesting than reading yet another straight-faced corporate view of what happened.

Sometimes when people have opinions, they step on a few toes. I suggest you either grow a thicker skin and not get visibly angry over something that was no more that a joke about a press conference OR find another website because obviously this place goes way over your head.
If you don't like this site, fuck off elsewhere, theres plenty of game blogs out there and we don't need your patronage that badly.
