So the Mega Man 10 Gamespot's review got posted. But isn't this a bit too late? I mean, the game has been released for about... a MONTH. But they decided to review it NOW, on the 360? Now, don't get me wrong, I have nothing with the 360 (in my opinion, the site could just be renamed 360spot.com, but let that alone), but the 360 version is still the only one reviewed. The Wii version was released on March 1st on the Wii. They could have done it way, way, way earlier but they wanted so badly to do the 360 version? Are Gamespot showing their fanboyism? Yeah I know, it's ridiculous

Why does this bother you exactly? Also, GameSpot isn't composed of one person.I mean what I'm getting from this is that all of the gamespot editors decided to get together and write a review on the 360 version of Mega Man just to be fanboys? "They" isn't correct. It's a single editor. And to call GameSpot staff x360 fanboys as a whole would be ridiculous. Tom McShea wrote it..

Tom McShea just posted on System Wars, saying he downloaded the game on his own personal time, told his boss who suggested he review it. No conspiracy!

Which makes me wonder if this is a gaming website at all if they review games at their own whim.

Well GS seem to have a small staff at the mo. They don't review Wiiware/XBLA/PSN games with any frequency. It was probably a case of good fortune, that the guy had played the game himself, so wouldn't have to waste any work hours with it.

Maybe the wanted to wait for all 3 versions to come out, just on the occasion that one of the versions may have ended up being different in some way, for better or worse?

Quite a lot being you? I don't know everyone, but I would guess most people don't go to GS for reviews and news anymore. There's been a massive drop in quality.

I guess that makes sense. I do find it silly that I would get so mad over this.

Well I don't know about you but the last few times we had threads trying to attack GS reviews quite a few people came out and showed their support for GS and at the end it was quite obvious that theirs a lot of support behind GS although its usually quite which isnt a suprise as the people complaining are always the loudest and tend to stand out way more!

That and didn't GS just pass IGN in hits last month or something, that also says something about how many people still use GS!

while i agree that it's stupid that they waited until the 360 version was out to review, the game is exactly the same, so the 360 review applies for the wii and PS3 versions too.
