Game PR persons, should have an adversarial relationship with Games Reviewers, this is not always the case, you may remember the IGN reviewer that gave a bad score to a game and got sacked, or the PR person that sent Destructoid's reviewer, Jim Sterling, tweets about how he should have reviewed a particular game.
Here are some more up to date stories that are currently doing the rounds.
While this article is laudible, I find it ironic, the amount of times the writer pimped out Mountain Dew and Doritos :), also, be aware that part of the article has since been censored (see the side bar).

Congratulations on your 2,000th post, Fiach :) :-X
What took you so long? ???? :-()
Well, we old folks like to take our time with the important stuff, like when the young bull calf said to the old bull..."Hey Pa!, lets run down to that field and f@#k a cow!", to which the old bull said, ..."no son, lets walk down there and f@#k them all!" >:D
:-X ;)
Selecting good games is hard enough without the waters being muddied by professional shills. :-\\
Yet another good reason to hang around here and keep track of games that are being enjoyed by you guys to help me make my purchase choices. :-X
Fiach, nice dialogue quote by Robert Duvall addressing Sean Penn, from "Colors" :-D
