This whole situation is f@*ked! Jeff is a good reliable journo. I have now canceled my total access account. Gamespot has lost it's edge :(

"The way to solve this problem lies in how to communicate what kind of games [they CAN play]."

I didn't agree with alot of his reviews. He had warioware rated higher than zelda:TP.

However, this just confirms to me what I suspected along time ago. That GS reviews were and are for sale.
