Call of Duty Black Ops Voted ‘Best Game Ending’ Of All Time
18 hours 20 mins ago
Gamespot chose to lie in an attempt to cover up a poor decision and now gamers across the United States are outraged. 1up.com, one of Gamespot's rival sites, organized a protest on Friday in front of Gamespot's headquarters in California. This isn't the last of the protests to come, either. A Gamespot user is calling for a "Blackout Monday," which calls for a complete boycott of all CNET sites on Monday. This means that you shouldn't Google or visit sites related to CNET in any way, shape, or form if you wish to take part in this.
While GameSpot and its parent company CNET remain mum, gamer outrage over the Jeff Gerstmann firing continues.
Employees of competing video game website 1up.com staged a demonstration on Friday outside GameSpot HQ in San Francisco. The impromptu gathering was a way of showing support for Gerstmann and the integrity of the game review process in general.

He's officially been fired, but him being fired over the Kane and Lynch review only started as a rumour. I'd just like to know if that was the real reason or not. Does sound rather likely, and I'm not trying to defend Gamespot or anything, but I just need some real solid proof that he got fired over the review before I can really take a side.
I hope gamespot goes down in flames, i never liked the site anyway, and this controversy just proved there idiots.
Everyone knows that it's not good business practice to advertise a product that your own site reviews as being mediocre as it sends mixed messages.
