I can see this post ending the life of this short lived GS account, but alas...GS reviews, both scores and text are trash....it has been a continuous downhill slide for quite some time now. Want somewhere else to go? Here's your list! Thanks to metacritic!

As unfortunate as it is, GS are considered one of the premier game related sites on the internet.

Hi, I just wanted to say that I'm again pissed off at Gamespot for giving a WRONG PS3 review. Like some other people have mentioned, this is becoming a big issue since they are giving continously WRONG reviews to AWESOME PS3 games.

I own 'Uncharted: Drake's Fortune' to me the game deserves a 9.3, it's one of the best games I've owned, (similarly happened with 'Ratchet & Clank: Tools of Fortune'). Several other Videogame Websites agree with this score by giving it 9.1, 9.0 and 8.9 in the least. And Gamespot as usual gave the stupidest reasons to support their false 8.0 score.

It's so bad at this point that a lot of people can almost accurately predict what score Gamespot will give to a PS3 game, by subtracting 1.0 or more from any other website review of the same game.

Is everyone absolutely so dependent on the score a reviewer gives... I could careless what they gave it, as long as they described the game in detail (what most of a review is about anyways) so that I have as much information as I need to MAKE MY OWN decision whether I would like a game or not. I don't understand why people get so freaking upset over a little number. This is also the reason GS puts player scores and critic scores up too so you can see those... like I said, I honestly don't see why everyone has to make such a huge fuss.

It was actually the post after the first one, where you admitted to ban dodging, that got you banned.
