Gamespot nominated Kane and Lynch for Best of 2007, and left out GoW2

I find it hillarious tha you all think Kane and Lynch still had anything to do with Jeff Being fired. BTW: if you watch the original Video Review, it IS crap Quality like McDonald said it was, so I understand why he took it down. black_awpN1

If you want to buy into that garbage and believe it had nothing to do with it, by all means you are entitled to your opinion. But I wasnt born yesterday, and they arent fooling me at all.

Im not Condoning what they did. I think it sucks. Im just saying we shouldnt rub GS's good name in the mud for it. Do you think Vinny or anyone else wanted him fired? NO. It was CNET who did it, not the GS Employees who make this site what it is. But hey, like Alex already said on the podcast, you already made up your minds about this and wont listen to facts.

I listened to the HotSpot yesterday and it sounded like the guys at CNet spent a few days reading the forums & blogs to figure out exactly what to say to cast doubt on the whole situation. The podcast sounded like the fluff PR pieces CNet sent out last week.

IMO, the guys sounded scared. Firing Jeff G was a sign that no one is safe

CNET honestly couldnt afford to fire any other Key Employees. THis JEff thing has produced to much Backlash. Next I suppose your going to say a CNET guy was in the same room as them when they recorded the podcast to make sure they said the right tings? Take off your Tin Foil hats people.

#1 CNEt can "afford" to fire anyone they want. Firing people = less employees on payroll = more money for CNet.

#2 Maybe not in the same room. But you'd be naive to think CNet didn't review the podcast before OKing it for download.

This contradicts GS's hotspot thing, Ryan even stated GowII was one of the best action titles of the year...it even got 9.friggin 2!!! Dumb GS. Oh well i voted for Cod4. Kratos_OMEGA

At least it's not even close to winning.

Was kayne and lynch really more anicipated than GOWII? I think not.

O RLY? if the kane and lynch review had nothing to do with the firing then

• Why did they take all the kane and lynch ads down?
• Why did they edit the review DESPITE THE FACT that it was perfectly fine and had been checked over by the editorial team
• Why did they take down the video review then put it up without any changes once their lies and corruption became public?

1. Eidos Advertisement Time was all used up. They paid for so many days, then nthe ads went down on the last day.

2. THey added the differences between the PS3 and 360 version, which they should have had in the first place.

3. IF you watched the original Video Review, it was very bad Quality. They only showed the first level and the Microphone was pretty messed up.

Got any more?

You're right. It's all internal issues and had absolutely nothing to do with K & L. Some "internal issues" caused one of the best and most original members (who wasn't afraid to speak his mind) and who has contributed so much over the past 11 years to be fired. Whatever, it's all stupid. Why not reveal the reason for him being fired? That's right. They won't. All they will do is lie or spin it in someway. If it was only some internal issues, they would have already revealed it, or have they already and i've just been sleeping (mind you i have been on vacation for the past week or so overseas).

Rule of thumb... anytime you are dealing with big companies or corporations, sleep with one eye open. ALWAYS. Otherwise, you are going to get shanked in the back at the first opportune moment. I hate to break it to you, but that is simply how it is. How does that fable go? When the animal thought it trusted the scorpion, and the scorpion stung it... it asked, "Why did you sting me?" and it replied, "Because I'm a scorpion."

Seriously, man.... remember that. The guys and gals still there want and/or need their job, therefore they are doing whatever they have to do to please the bosses, its as simple as that. I dont buy it for one second.

Wow... nobody knows how to actually read something before they make fools out of themselves huh?

This is the list of games that were voted into the "Game Watch '07" I know many other people have brought this up, but THOSE GAMES can ONLY include the highest hyped games from "Game Watch '07" That isn't the GotY, just the vote to see what games lived up to the hype.

God of War 2, The Witcher, STALKER, etc will probably all be on the actual GotY vote. This isn't that list though. Please System Wars, be smart and actually have some competent reading comprehension.

I said that a number of times in this topic, and no one seems to notice. But we shouldn't get in the way of all the gamespot hate.

The question is why would they put it up there... They already know the games suck and how people are hating on it.

[QUOTE="Pariah_001"]I like Kane and Lynch. So I support this decision.Jandurin

Hehe. That's new.

Did you even read what you're complaining about? They dont nominate it at all. The ask if people thought it lived up to the hype, along with a bunch of other games. And the answer will obviously be no.

Jeez...

The amount of useless crying in this thread is laughable.

You silly children havent even read the link.
