http://www.ign.com/articles/2013/12/27/porn-found-on-young-boys-new-3ds

So a young boy, yada yada yada, people consider pictures of naked women porn, yada yada yada, LOL IGN REPORTING THIS.

That's fine and all, I'd expect IGN to do this for the hits, but can we all take a second and laugh at IGN blatantly inserting a "Best of 2013 3DS Nominees" at the bottom of the article like this?

Edit: Just for clarification, this isn't a system-related jab in any way, just how funny the juxtaposition of IGN's usual shit is.

Can't have Christmas without a "Porn on a child's used Nintendo system" story.

I don't see the problem here. They aren't as bad as Kotaku in terms of irrelevant gaming news.

It's a Christmas tradition. I can already see next year's "Japanese squid bondage on 2DS" headlines.

Nah, IGN is way worse. Kotaku is ok at times, they just have that one really annoying feminist chick. IGN puts out absolutely nothing of worth
