Ricardo Torres,
after working for Gamespot for 10 years got promoted to Gamespot EIC (editor-in-chief) of the site. "I'm excited to have the opportunity to help further GameSpot's position at the forefront of the industry," Torres said in a statement. "I'm eager to continue the site's tradition of excellence and I'm confident we can move forward into 2008 and set a new industry standard for how video games are covered." The job was open since former editor-in-chief Greg Kasavin resigned to work in game development just over a year ago. Torres and Jeff Gerstmann were co-editorial directors after that departure, until Jeff's controversial firing in December. In an official notice about the firing posted on the site, Torres said he and the rest of the Gamespot team "wish him (Jeff) nothing but good luck in his future endeavors."
