i absolutely love gamespot i think they give very fair reviews and they have some of the smartest minds in their field , i realize what happened with gertzman but dont think for a second sites like ign , gameinformer , edge, gametrailers etc dont get money thrown their way or "gifts" to make the game seem a little more pleasing than it is and the first kane and lynch did not deserve the score gertzman gave.
gamespot gave demons souls GOTY thats enough for me to understand exactly how they feel about certain games , cause that was my GOTY as well in 2009 , also while everyone was giving uncharted 2 and mass effect 2 perfect scores gamespot was one of the few that didnt score either of them perfectly and they rarely give out perfect scores all those sites that throw out 10/10 like cake are just sellouts way more than gamespot has ever been.
gamespot still one the best around for real reviews and they have an awesome group of guys nuff said
