Eidos still makes games?... Dear God

And apparently they also make big fits when one of thier few meager games gets slammed on a site they paid advterising for.
Jeff gave out crappy reviews. He's reviews often contradicted each other (SMS was too similar to SM64, but for Halo 2 he says "if it ain't broke don't fix it"), were often wide of the mark of the average review, and often focused on petty things that shouldn't have that much impact on the final score of a game.
Btw, I wish people would use more descriptive thread titles. I just posted a thread on this in the OT forum, not knowing this was here because of it's thread title.
One of the problems with Gamespot reviews in the past was that the total score was specifically derived from a formula based on each individual factor. The fact that they are no longer restricted by that system is at least a step in the right direction.

How many of you guys are actually paying members of these type of biased sites with staff that would sell their momma for a dollar. I am sure glad I am part of Gamershell and don't subscribe or even visit these types of biased sites.

I don't understand how people not liking what the man wrote somehow justifies him getting fired in this manner. This is NOT a good thing.

LOL, so true. Maybe it's all a coincidence? I'll stop visiting Gamespot either way (not that I did so very often), at least until all the information comes out.
We don't provide the 'easy to program for' console that they [developers] want, because 'easy to program for' means that anybody will be able to take advantage of pretty much what the hardware can do, so the question is what do you do for the rest of the nine and half years? It's a learning process. - SCEI president Kaz Hirai
It's a virus where you buy it and you play it with your friends and they're like, "Oh my God that's so cool, I'm gonna go buy it." So you stop playing it after two months, but they buy it and they stop playing it after two months but they've showed it to someone else who then go out and buy it and so on. Everyone I know bought one and nobody turns it on. - Epic Games president Mike Capps
We have a real culture of thrift. The goal that I had in bringing a lot of the packaged goods folks into Activision about 10 years ago was to take all the fun out of making video games. - Activision CEO Bobby Kotick

Yeah, which site gave Assassin's Creed a bad review (anything below 8 was considered unacceptable by Ubisoft), and then Ubisoft flipped out and pulled a ton of future advertising?
Gamers should be just as pissed off at Ubisoft as they are at Gamespot/Cnet and Eidos...
