On the other hand (Destiny)
however, I do applaud their willingness to say "You know what, we've come across some genuine videogame news and we're going to cover it, even if it costs us review copies of a few games".
And I would applaud that to. I wouldn't call publishing leaked scripts admirable, though. Property theft, maybe, but definitely not admirable.
Heck, I might even feel a bit different if they had just said, "We have some info that Fallout 4 is in development, and will be set in Boston," but that wasn't good enough for them. They posted specific details and parts of the actual script. I don't think that's news. Maybe I'm in the minority there, but their self-congratulatory tone about the whole thing turned me off enough that I don't visit them anymore. Which is a shame, because I agree that Patrick typically does some pretty good work. But I won't be party to that sort of crap.
