Welcome to GameSpotting, where we low-block in the corner until the time runs out.
Let's dispense with the pleasantries: GameSpotting is the no-nonsense forum where we get to spout off about anything and everything that's on our minds. Don't like what we have to say? Tough. There ain't a thing you can do about it. Nyah nyah! Oh wait, there is one thing: Head over to our forums and rebuff as necessary.

"Are emergent games really the way of the future, and should more games aspire to be 'virtual sandboxes,' inviting the player to run amok and experiment as much as possible?"
Rich Gallup/Associate Producer, GameSpot Live
"Now that they can keep me here after 6:00pm without paying overtime, GameSpot Live wants to make more shows, and the more we can learn from our audience, the better."
Sam Parker/PC Editor
"The free demos just stack up as the holidays approach. On some days, it's like Christmas."
Brad Shoemaker/Associate Editor
"Granted, I'm no John Carmack, but I wonder if id has painted itself into a corner with the design of its new Doom engine."
Tyler Winegarner/Associate Producer, GameSpot Live
"I'm here to talk about how I appreciate a game that challenges my skill set but doesn't abuse me like the original Castlevania or Ninja Gaiden did."
Ryan Mac Donald/Executive Producer
"Some of the failed products that promised the future of online gaming have made the broadband-capable world we now live in seem like forever in the making."
Bob Colayco/Associate Editor
"Are there really that many people who will buy a used copy of a game to save a lousy 10 percent?"
Zandi Nkabinde/GuestSpotter
"Did you know that the comics industry was once subjected to much of the same scrutiny that the gaming industry is today?"
