  I was thinking that after I commented. Sounds right.

  That does sound like review bombing then. People elsewhere in the thread are arguing about definitions.

    I read those conversations. I wouldn’t call this review bombing. This is people buying it and being upset with the product, then leaving a review and returning it.

      I doubt the majority of those incidents are people who bought it without knowing about the controversy first. Thats why they can be grouped and labeled as something other than standard reviews.

        The majority of people aren’t serially online and reading gamer drama forums.
