That's depressing. Astroturfing; not a good thing to do to promote your work. Ever.

Ah yes, I remember seeing this on imgur.com a few days ago. Definitely not a good way to promote a game, especially when it results in a post like this.

So true. Astroturfing and spam... a good way to end up on everyone's bad sides.

Just ask Sony! They know what it's like, thanks to 'All I want for Christmas is a PSP' and 'David Manning'.
