Hier die "offizielle" Bestätigung des Trollens:

Pocket-Lint.com were the first to run with the news, almost exactly one hour after saying “we have to make an effort to validate”; two hours before I got the chance to reply. It was posted with zero validation, no fact-checking, no source information. Just a simple email basically saying “I work for Microsoft - believe me?”

it’s not just that it was easy to get a site to publish the non-news… it’s also the fact that every other site will then leech the information.

Not to mention the Chinese whisper effect. I have listed below many different links to sites that took this news from Pocket-Lint.com[...] There is always at least one bit of information that was changed, mistranslated (even on English sites) or not mentioned at all.

This is not journalism.
Many games ‘journalists’ have no right calling themselves such things. The vast majority do nothing but copy & paste from other sites, and will willingly publish information without fact checking a single thing or attempting to verify the source.
It’s all about being first.
Ein Trauerspiel...
