      While Game Revolution's Jesus versus Zelda fanboys is a genius idea, (the site reviewed both Twilight Princess and Eternal Forces and then collected the hate mail) it sounds like the Eternal Forces review may have been deliberately over the top. 				<a href="http://kotaku.com/219698/jesus-versus-zelda" title="Click here to read more about Jesus Versus Zelda">More&nbsp;&raquo;</a>

My diatribe on fanboy press spurred a few emails about Edge, a game magazine that several Kotaku readers insist is smartly written, geared toward adults and doesn

A recent news item I wrote about the death of video game editorials drew an interesting bit of criticism. Rick Healey, who helps run <a href="http://www.netjak.com"</a>Netjak.com</a> says it falls flat on its face. That, in itself, isn

Good point.				<a href="http://kotaku.com/026950/letter-video-game-editorials-still-swimming-in-the-ooze" title="Click here to read more about Letter: Video game editorials still swimming in the ooze">More&nbsp;&raquo;</a>
