Gamergate started with the premise that professional game reviewers were being biased by publishers due to being granted preferential treatment and access.

All the same stuff people are saying now about Clarence Thomas, which is TRUE, they were saying about video game reviewers back then.

I was actually a game reviewer back then, and, yeah, I got review codes for games and backstage access at Pax… it didn’t influence my reviews though and I never had pressure from publishers or editorial to give good reviews for access.

My experience may not have been the norm though:
