A corporate mod is on the loose.

Do not underpin the importance of this issue. It's subject is corporate advertisement against gamers. Eidos and CNET are doing what they can to make money. Kanye and Lynch sucked. Let Eidos know that they are drawing attention to Jeffs review, and CNET know that there will be no money at all without a supportive gaming community. Support Jeff.

They'd have to start IP Banning EVERYBODY on this board if they wanted to silence us. And that's just impossible.

Nice going money-on-your-mind workers. You're contradicting the entire purpose of your existance by giving into Eidos's pressure.

Exactly.

I'm kind of scared to log on tomorrow thinking there will be tubgirl and other gross pictures plastering the forums. This kind of thing brings out the worst in people.

Okay, I've just heard that this is all true. Jeff was actually fired for the Kanye and Lynch review, after a complaint was filed by the Publisher (Eidos).

This is a sad day for Gamespot. :(

And do what?

I feel so powerless. Together the Gamespot community adds up to a lot of people. Surely we can adopt some kind of strategy.

CNET are money loving slugs.

There is one official thread for this. It's right above your noses on this forum. Use it.
