As N'Gai mentioned, the original article was somewhat tongue in cheek. Do you honestly believe any media outlet (be it Crispy Gamer or GameSpy, or N'Gai, or Totilo) telling any of these developers to shut up will have a chilling effect on them talking? The 10 that were mentioned LOVE to talk. Some stick their foot in their mouth, some overpromise and some just love to talk and say little. Cliffy B told me at the show that he would NEVER shut up
In the end, I do agree that letting them talk provides our bread & butter in what we cover as an industry, but it would be nice that when these guys talk if there was more credibility in what they said.
