They get paid to pick dumbass flagship games.
I am also compelled to say:

Finally:
Tribes:Vengeance is not a Tribes game. There, it's been said. The 'Tribes' in the name is there to garner interest, not imply what we all have remembered. Once I get my new computer parts in (today! woo) I'll try T:V again, there's no doubt. The community has produced some excellent addons (CompMod, maps, etc.) that everyone should be willing to try at least once.
If you're still thinking it's part of the same series, fuhgedaboudit. It's a game that uses Tribes concepts and the Tribes name, that's it. If you can get past the roadblock that makes you compare it to the previous Tribes, then it might be enjoyable.
