If you care about the plot I'd say not to go to either of those places.
Or probably any place. Just leave the internet right now.

I heard Kotaku had done this. GiantBomb too? Do either of those two sites remember when literally no gaming site discussed anything that happened past the first ten minutes of Metal Gear Solid 2?

It is a good thing I don't read gaming news sites, like, ever.

Kotaku actually spoiled it in the damn article title.
Giant Bomb didn't spoil it in the title, but in the article itself with no spoiler tags anywhere. Thought they were better than that, really. >_>

Sounds like it's a marketing-style spoiler, to be honest. As in... Rocksteady WANTS you to know it.

This is possible, and like Shoe, I have an idea of where this leads so I don't care QUITE as much.
But seeing this in the game without having any clue whatsoever would be like a sack of bricks to the face, completely unexpected and incredible.

They do this all the time. Sometimes they even post screenshots of it on the article.

I only saw the title of the Kotaku article but that isn't how you do that. Capcom releasing an image of Chris Redfield leaving flowers for Jill on a tombstone is a better example.

*arkham city spoilers*



Or quickly killing him, I guess, since he appears to have croaked barely two hours into the game, which is roughly how far in Rocksteady says this sequence takes place.

I don't doubt for a second the Joker will actually bounce back shortly in some fashion, assuming that was even really the Joker sitting in that chair in the first place. If the game's developers considered this any sort of truly pivotal plot twist worth keeping hidden, they wouldn't have shown it to the press, and instead Rocksteady's Dax Ginn seemed almost giddy for me to see it, though he wouldn't answer any questions about what exactly was going on.

the man literally tells you "this is early on, they're "spoiling" the game on purpose"
