Certainly [the decision to leave] had a lot to do with the whole Jeff [Gerstmann] situation...I wouldn't have left if this situation hadn't gone down the way it did...Sometimes you just realize a place isn't for you anymore, you know? I felt like it was just time for me to go. |

They really did fire Gerstmann for giving a bad review to a heavy advertiser (Eidos for Kane and Lynch.)
Gamespot sucks. They just lost all credibility. High reviews to the highest bidder.
I'm sure that Brad Shoemaker dork will stay.

It's good to know that there's still some morality left in the world, and when something's corrupt, the people will stand up for what's right. Alex Navarro and Frank Provo did a pretty good thing by leaving. It sends a message to all the other game review companies that this is a terrible way to run a business, and if they have been doing it behind the scenes then they will most likely stop now.

i'm glad they are standing up for what is right and leaving. Reviews should not be based on bribery. No matter how much hype a game has the reviewer cannot be a fanboy and do a crappy job. Jeff did what was right its to bad cnet couldn't have his back on it.

Jeff firing the best thing that could have happened, I mean GS sucked for years full of Biased reviews and he was one of them.
And what made GS really bad was how they lied to everyone instead of being men and saying why.
Im glad mad people are leaving. Like i said before GS would be nothing and get nothing if it wasn't for the forums. They were nothing before and they are nothing now.
