GameSpot Editor Fired Over Review? [Nov 30, 2007, 11:03 am ET] – 116 Comments
Primotech reports the firing of Jeff Gerstmann, long-time GameSpot editor,
saying sources close to the situation indicate this due to
his tepid review of Kane & Lynch: Dead Men for Xbox 360, pointing out Eidos
had invested in a prominent advertising campaign on the site. The article points
out this Penny Arcade
comic offering a typically searing take on the situation, along with another
indication this unconfirmed story is making the rounds. A later update on
DESTRUCTOID reports
the departure of GameSpot editor Tim Tracy though it's not clear if or how
this may relate to the situation described above.
