Lastly, since people on social media like to determine what is “old news” and not an actual news site, I always like to include one of the first social media posts I did about this. You have to understand, it sometimes takes a while before there’s artwork, tech specs, details about bonus materials, and preorder listings. So, here at HDDN, the news isn’t just thrown out there to try to beat everyone else to gain clout. I do acknowledge certain websites like to rush news out. However, over the past 18 years, I’ve not done that much (if at all), and I don’t plan to anytime soon. I fully report the news once all the details are there.
