I'm out i Think.
Gamespot just feels different now. I was wierd, it was like a gradual realisation that I dont come to gamespot for news and reviews anymore. Its always 2nd or 3rd on my gaming sites to visit. I think its mainly the editors. I dont know but other then kevin vanord (sp?) none of them have any chemistry in front of the camera.
I was watching jeff at giant bomb and he really was at ease in front of the camera, really just explaining the game and what it was like, and puting some emotion into it, and i find the gamespot guys... lack emotion, lack confidence. They seem nervous in front of the camera and their reviews are often given in monotone with barely any flux of voice.
I cant really explain it. They seem reserved and not into it. Jokes are forced and generally they are all very boring. Im gona stick with my account, use the forums and stuff, might be back next gen war but for seeing game content and reviews this place will be if i have nothing better to do and have watched GameTrailers, Giant Bombs ect.

I've been here for 5 years now and have never watched a video review...hell, if the whole Jeff thing didn't happen I couldnt have told you what he looked like. I'd rather read/skim my reviews here than watch them...don't have all that much time to waste.

Well said. I stopped going to this website years ago because of their bias to Nintendo.
