That post was great too. What damage would it have done to leave it up?
A lot of companies do it, if they can control the spread of information, they can pretend that everything is fine for a few more months and maybe collect a bit more revenue making it slightly better for the stockholders.
Seriously. It’s not controversial, doesn’t say anything bad about getting shut down, nothing. It’s just “thanks everyone who worked here”.
Brutal
Damn, they really couldn’t wait to shut it down huh? Are they deleting everything because they’re going to try and write it off or something? I dunno how you’d manage to do that considering how long it’s been around, but like, damn. Y’all need to chill a little and give people time to archive shit.
So, while someone from Game Informer wanted to inform people one last time, GameStop stopped it. I guess everyone has to be true to their name. Now let’s see how many more game related things GameStop is going to stop.
I grew up without an internet connection. GI was something I looked forward to every month for years. I kinda wish I hadn’t thrown my stacks of them away…
