I'm sure the editors themselves are honest... but we simply don't believe that the management responsible for Jeff's termination are. We also don't believe that the reviews will not be fake either due to the editors being afraid to give a big game a poor review in fear of being "Kane & Lynched", or due to the review score simply being doctored when being posted.

It's clear Gamespot values advertisting dollars over honesty. That's just not something you can allow, or the whole process of reviewing a game is pointless. You may as well let the publisher review the game themselves.

I've been the a paid subscriber since 2004, and always came to this site as a source for legitimate and honest game reviews. Gamespot, you have lost all credibility in one stupid move. I hope this costs you 10 times what the lost advertisting would've... and I have a feeling that it will. Do you not realize how fickle a place the Internet is? If you cannot be trusted, the readers will go elsewhere. Now, every single time a game is reviewed, your readers are wondering if that score is inflated or the review is false because you have financial stake in the game via advertisers. Gamespot can no longer be trusted. Luckily for us readers... there are alternatives. Off to become an IGN Insider!

For those of you who are sticking around... may I suggest Firefox and the Adblock Plus add-in so you don't even have to view the full page ads Gamespot is willing to fire their employees over?
