If you can't figure out how to pay for hosting (btw, I've paid out of my pocket for Dreamhost hosting for 3 years and I'm an average college student... not rich, but rent instead of buy a couple of next-gen games and *bam*, you have the money), I personally don't think you have the wherewithall to run a website.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1159202865441545954.post-30242627921157082132008-03-17T02:41:00.000-04:002008-03-17T02:41:00.000-04:00Oh well If there was a way I would donate.

It's very possible for companies to dictate how the site reports certain information (to skew in their favor) and the like.<BR/><BR/>Like an official site there may be things they HAVE to do in order to keep their funding.<BR/><BR/>Other sites that are "free" are that way only because they're owned by a huge conglomerate company. Kotaku, who are seemingly open to say just about anything (but seem to have a certain love/hate relationship with the PS3) is under a HUGE umbrella of blog sites. <BR/><BR/>Unfortunately OnAxis isn't under the same huge umbrella. I'd be proud to say that my money helped fund the site to keep the site going and make it better.<BR/><BR/>No one will hate you if you don't donate but if you're a regular it seems only fair to give them a hand.incredibilistichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05675775167356427635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1159202865441545954.post-46595359320333258042008-03-16T15:04:00.000-04:002008-03-16T15:04:00.000-04:00I think I will donate too, I want to help too this...I think I will donate too, I want to help too this site get bigger and succeed.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1159202865441545954.post-20888496193746728442008-03-16T12:09:00.000-04:002008-03-16T12:09:00.000-04:00That is why you look at multiple reviews.

IGN folklore reviwe the guy loved the game mroe then anyone else. Does it mean tis a bad review, no the review just realy liked the game. And on teh opisite side lair. The review couldn't grasp the conrtols. Giving teh game a much lower score then anyone else. Bad review, no just personal preference like every other review on the internet.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1159202865441545954.post-81632881040209423512008-03-16T11:27:00.000-04:002008-03-16T11:27:00.000-04:00I disagree with boberman.

The reason other sites are "free" is because they have companies posting banner ads on their site that are paying to be on that site.<BR/><BR/>Those companies are now (basically) partial owners of that site as they have stock in how their products are perceived on the site and what the writers can and cannot say on the site. Outside of making sure they don't drop an F-bomb advertisers can also dictate other things, like reviews.<BR/><BR/>Ever heard of a little site called Gamespot.com? We all know what happened there. They were accused of changing review scores for Kane & Lynch and even fired one of their guys because of it. Since then people have been dropping like flies from that site.<BR/><BR/>If this site does eventually get some advertisers I can only hope that it will retain the integrity of getting the news to us fast and free from company filters that might otherwise block content for one reason or another.<BR/><BR/>Anyway, I plan on donating just as soon as my PayPal account has confirmed my transfer of funds from my bank account to PayPal.incredibilistichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05675775167356427635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1159202865441545954.post-10333916997100162792008-03-16T01:59:00.000-04:002008-03-16T01:59:00.000-04:00Thanks for running this blog but to have to pay fo...Thanks for running this blog but to have to pay for a game site isn't worth it.
