MS bribing gaming media to downplay resolution-gate?

Because it really ISN'T a big deal, that's why. People are so making a mountain out of a mole hill with this.

It would fit their MO and past, but there's not current evidence.

Eurogamer upplayed it if anything.
I don't know what's up with Ars and Edge though.

Performance may not be the biggest factor when deciding what to go for (I'm getting a WiiU this year), but it bloody well is one.
Misleading and telling us we're wrong, childish fanboys, it doesn't matter, 125% is slight and minor, Xbone HW = PS4 HW, sit further back, etc. is bullshit. Check yourself.
