Default Gamespot reviewer sacked for giving Eidos game bad review

Here

They're going mad about this in the Eidos and Gamespot forums.

It's a shame when we can't even get fair reviews of games from websites due to advertising on that very website. Admittedly Gamespot sometimes got reviews horrendously wrong but on the whole their reviews were fair.

A review is a review not everything is going to be to everyones taste.

People who take any notice whatsoever of the scores games get on these big corporate American websites deserve to lose £40 to Kane & Lynch. They're the most blatantly corrupt reviewers out there.

I used to write reviews for a leading games retailer and there was always a certain amount of pressure to talk up certain games to increase sales.

People who take note of such sites for reviews should be shot anyway. Imbeciles.
