Worse Than FatBabies

Gabe has decided to use the GroupHug technology for evil, not for good (read: laughs). Rumor Engine: Games is in essence just a new GroupHug skin. A foul, boil-pocked skin for the planet's middle-schoolers and adult basement-dwellers to post today's rumors about the video games they love and love to hate.

While Rumor Engine itself is an excellent idea, its launch subject is a regrettable one. Because while, in the real world, rumors are always true the inverse is true when it comes to video gaming. And, unfortunately, any two-bit hack can fabricate a moderately well written line of complete bullshit, and someone will interpret it as gospel.
