It's not a question on whether Jeff was an asset or not to gamespot. I didn't really like Jeff. He bashed Wii sports a bit while lazily trying to play it sitting down. There was a lot of crap from Jeff, but the point is the "nature" of why they fired him. First of all, why did they keep such a biased reviewer for so long anyway? How did he make it to the highest reviewing position? And most importantly, why did they not ever fire him until their advertisers got mad? Gamespot is FULL of strange tripe that doesn't seem ethical or worth my time.
IGN at least is a group of people who get along together and give honest opinions about what they like or don't like and talk about what they can say and give hints toward things they can't. Much more respectable. Sure they might overinflate a review here or there or underinflate one, but don't all reviewers? Especially reviewers that really like the console they review for? I would much rather have someone give honest opinions for a console they like rather than a console they hate.
