  Farewell, GameSpot

  It's true, I'm no longer contributing to GameSpot.
  
  I believe CNet management let Jeff go for all the wrong reasons. I believe CNet intends to soften the site's tone and push for higher scores to make advertisers happy.
  
  I won't lie to people and tell them a game is good when it isn't. I won't downplay negatives that readers have a right to know about.
  
  And so, Frank Provo's contributions to GameSpot end after nearly 8 years. March 2000 through December 2007. It was a nice run.
  
  I feel sorry for the GameSpot staff that have to continue to work there, because they have no choice if they want to be able to pay bills and feed their families. For such upstanding people, the CNet overlords have created the ultimate soul-crushing work environment.
