Gamespot... It's Been Good While It's Lasted, But I Gotta Say Bye

Now I've been a member of this site since 2002. I lurked before that. I came up when the whole Cow, Lemming, Sheep, and Hermit names were created. I remember when anything under AAA became a flop on SWs and all that good stuff. It's been fun when I look back... but now I can't say that I think of Gamespot the same as I once did. I used to think that GS's reviews were superior to everybody else with a few minor setbacks. Now I can't go off of these lack luster reviews anymore. The whole bad ass moto that the site has about reviewing games isn't needed and it's a bit old.

This site hasn't grown much since I started here. It's too strict and it feels like a kid orientated board now that I have grown up. Gamespot should of never changed the review system, now they can blindly give games whatever score they want and the users of the site cannot just see exactly why the game got the score it got. The whole .5 incriment scoring system is just lame, it's too general with the amount of games that come out now.

I feel like I've been loyal to the sites reviews since I joined, now I'm done with em. The system was unique, now it's just stale. And giving great games like R&C a 7.5 makes the decision that much easier also. I rarely EVER bought a game that scored below AA status at GS. But after playing R&C for PS3 and seeing how great the game is, I just wonder how in the hell can somebody possibly give it a 7.5? The same as Conan? Heavenly Sword scored an 8 from here and R&C is clearly a better game in every single category. Reviews like that have made me think about the sites credibility. GS isn't where it used to be. I'm pretty sure people will bash me but I don't care, audios GS. You're heading in a bad direction, go back to the roots, and this is coming from a guy who's been a part of your site for 5 years.

Peace

:cry:

You will be missed my friend , you will be missed.

Come back once iin awhile so we know how you are doing with your life.

GoodBye for now dear friend , Goodbye !:(

I may have cared about what you said if your spelling was better.

Wait. No, I wouldn't. Your post is full of the same half-ass immature whining I have read for a week now. They havent changed the world, nor will this.

If you feel that GS has to grow up, why dont you help by doing the same. Its a game. Its a toy. Its nothing that is going to have a great impact on the future of the world.

it is true...

its like gamespot "OMG I LOVE HALO 2 IMMA GIVE IT A 9.3!!'

and then halo 3 comes around with better everything and you give it a 7.5

but now replaced halo with r&c.

its a good game, solid platforming and shooting.

it really didnt' deserve a 7.5.... graphics and gameplay alone should give it a 9.

sorry gs, stop hiring biased reviewers.

Before you go, here is a parting gift:

Please feel free to help yourself to more than one...you might need them after the holiday numbers are released.

I'm sorry bout the spelling but considering that your post wasn't grammatically perfect you should just STFU. K?

heavenly sword = original ip

r&c = 6th in the series since the ps2

get it?

gotta love how much people are overreacting about r&c

See ya,

Need the WAAAAmbulance to carry you out?

Actually Neogaf is just fine. I don't even post there I just lurk the site, better posters on that site hands down.GoldenGlove

It's the most Cow-centric forum out there.

What does that have to do with them delivering a 6 hour game with horrible loading times? R&C beats Heavenly Sword in every category.

So , When are you leaving exactly?

Wow the cows can't take the ownage. They can live in denial but thier games are trash. Good luck and hope you find the ps3 is trash.Nin360

Spoken like a true fanboy.

The guy is moving on to greener pastures. I guess he is just following the herd to where it's new grazing grounds.

1 has a reputation to live up to however

r&c either wasn't enough change to the series to make the 6th a standout title

or the mechanics were simply too varied for the reviewer (which is said in the video review)

if it's just the difference between .5... the difference between a franchise or an original ip is taken into account in reviews

...I rarely EVER bought a game that scored below AA status at GS. But after playing R&C for PS3 and seeing how great the game is, I just wonder how in the hell can somebody possibly give it a 7.5? The same as Conan? Heavenly Sword scored an 8 from here and R&C is clearly a better game in every single category....

Another Gamespot....

FATALITY

TCHBO.

Well not really a cow, I own a 360 and PS3. I was just pointing out one of the main reasons I'm done with the sites. I even compared another PS3 game to it. So your logic is flawed. GoldenGlove

Your inability to leave now CONFIRMED!

Face it, you like to argue.

Funny people man, I'm a cow because I brought up the R&C review? I've been playin' my 360 more then my PS3 for the last 3 months now, and I'm a cow because I call BS on a BS review. Okay carry on.GoldenGlove

It seems like you are slowly being brought back and will forever be trapped in the abyss that is SW.

Buh-bye!

see ya later with another account...

But regardlessmore people are leaving and its a shame....i remember the old GS too....

Starts to CRY....

*Group hug*

I'm going to leave GS if they don't fix these annoying bugs all over the place!

Can't quote. Can't edit. The PM system is all screwed up.
Seriously. This is supposed to be the most important gaming website on the Internet? How unprofessional.DireToad

Use the quick quote feature. It isn't as good, bu seems to work...

LOL. You know GS is biased if they rate Conan the same as R&C.

This place is ridiculous.

Nobody cares if you leave or stay, it's a forum, unfortunately, inhabited by 14 year old boys and to take it seriously is just testament to your own immaturity.

We'll be seeing you in a week anyway.
