Gamestop has just merged with the barely-relevant IGN, which will effectively turn the site into a giant advertorial outlet. Please forgive my skepticism as I'm sure the writers at IGN are professionals and their opinions on games will hopefully remain objective, but from now on don't be surprised when you see a Wii party game collection receiving a 9/10 and front-page placement on the site over the holidays.
