I entered the the code that youtube listed under the embed section when typing my blog post, but it comes out as the title and my couple of words only. What am I doing wrong?

GameSpot does not allow normal users to use the "embed" tag. Only admins have that privilege, as that tag can easily be used to run malicious code.

You can only embed videos in your Gamespot blog if they are user videos from somebody on the site. Just follow these steps:

1. Select the video you would like to blog, and copy it's BBcode.

2. Paste the video's embed code in your blog.

3. Post your blog.
