Keeping Mum

Journalistic integrity? High moral fibre? Maybe I just don't have the bollocks.

I get told stuff. Lots of stuff. Most of it I wouldn’t dream of putting onto TheSixthAxis. Tonight, just a half hour ago, I got told something by someone who you would assume also gets told lots of stuff.

So what do I do? The information I now have is about something we broke a while back, and whilst not exactly earth-shattering would guarantee us masses of hits if it went to press – but to what end? The person who told me might get involved, and that wouldn’t be good. And the company (and game) in question, too.

You know, we don’t go chasing hits – they might look good on paper but the traffic would be the sort that wouldn’t come back – eat up our bandwidth and don’t click any ads – and it wouldn’t do the site any favours in the long term.

So what’s the point of this blog post? Well, to see if you can work it out, of course…

Enjoy.

  1. Well you have to give us some hints at least!


  2. Wipeout DLC :D


    • Yes please!


  3. I’m confused.


    • Me too
      :S


  4. Killzone 2 DLC?


  5. yeh, Wipeout DLC? if it is, I give up XD no-one plays it anymore, and the online is dead :/


  6. Have you ever thought, that you get told stuff, because you don’t publish it, and then go on a hit hunting crusade like some sites I could mention.


    • A very good point. Five points to Griffyindor.


      • Gryffindor :)


  7. Mum = MAG?


  8. Haha! Tell us, it’s Wipeout HD DLC I just know it!


  9. A new game from a well known developer?


  10. Looking at the posts marked as rumors I can only hope its Jak & Daxter 4…
    The wishful thinking versus realistic prospects ratio is not encouraging.


    • Oh god yes! Jak And Daxter forever baby!


  11. I know what you mean man, since I started my website I got 4000 hits and 2 ad clicks, grand total: 6 euros. But I am sure you might get more money on a site like TSA.


  12. can’t you tell us by email :D just the members


    • Alot of emails!!


      • what about just to the most active member?


  13. i adMirE your self restrain.
    though i’M jEalous of your connections.
    surely you want to tell *soMEbody* though.
    and i love the fact that tsa doesn’t go whoring itself out for hits, preferring just to MakE sure that the community it has is strong.


    • :-D


  14. We know that you get told stuff you can’t publish.
    You know that we know that you get told stuff you can’t publish.
    We know that you know that we know you get told stuff you can’t publish.

    I’d leave it at that and not bother with these kind of posts. Tell us stuff when you can tell us.


  15. I reckon it is KILLZONE CO-OPERATIVE DLC.

    Do I win a prize? I need a keyboard for my joypad. I missed out last time
