Given the lack of any sort of organized record keeping regarding some of the less savory practices game companies have been involved in, it seemed prudent to start tracking them. As such, eShopperReviews will begin compiling news reports from reputable sources about these bad practices. To be fair, I will also include any pertinent company responses, as well as pertinent employee responses. I should note that all reports here should be considered to be alleged, as much of this is impossible to independently confirm. Also, know that it’s up to you which of these behaviors you consider “bad”, and which you think aren’t that big a deal – I can’t decide for you what you should be upset by.
I will continue adding game developers and publishers to this list over time. If you believe a news story should be added to a game company’s list, please let me know by leaving a comment on the bottom of the page for that company’s Bad Behavior Profile.
Here are the game companies we have profiled so far. WARNING: Some of the content here may be triggering and Not Safe For Work:
