Now that all types of fanboys have had some AAA hyped games flop (i.e. Crackdown. Zelda, and VF5), can we all now agree that Gamespot is not biased against our favorite console and that sometimes our hype creates more excitement than it's worth?

Gamespot is not biased. I declare that from now on, anyone who says GS is biased is stupid. People here should stop whining and/or teasing about scores on a game from ANOTHER video game console and play some damn videogames! :evil:

there not biased. but they are very picky. very picky. wether u think its bad or good is ur opinion. me i guess its good. i mean they dont give high scores often like gameinformer. how many 10s have they given in the last 3 years alone like 12.(i know its like 6 or 7 but u get i mean). do i always agree with what they give AAA. no personally graw, splinter cell, pdz, warioware, and god of war dont deserve it but whatever. they have there opinions i have mine.

Jeff Gerstmann is definitely biased against cooking games. He better not get assigned to the Cooking Mama: Cookoff review!!!

I agree because Game Informer IMO it seems they give really high scores to games that have Shooting in it, alot of games I like they give bad scores because those games they think are Kiddy, but if your game is a shooter or a game where you kill people they always over rate it, I might be wrong but I know that is how it was 2-3 years ago I don't know if it is the same today.

Because every game hyped AAA by fanboys is already guaranteed AAA, whether Gamespot wants to accept that or not.

well they also gave god of war a 10 and a 9.75, way to overrated IMO, also i love Zelda but TP is not a 10, 9.5 IMO, same with wind waker. RE 4 should have got 9.75, gta and halo both should have gotten 9.75 come on way to many tens.

LOL, oh well its all in good fun

lol... Crackdown wasnt crazy hyped.... Zelda for the wii is one of the best games ever made. And VF5 has recieved really good reviews. So i dont know what games your talking about. But anyways, Gamespot isnt biased at all. We can agree on that

They like to nitpick at EVERY SINGLE game. If they aren't being distracted by someones head blowing off, they are looking with their electron microscopes at all the little jaggies (OMG). Thats one of the reasons why I believe Gears got a higher rating, it was a great looking game with lots of blood and chaos amongst the many cruddy games with less going on, so the flaws were overlooked. Everything since then seems to suck according to GS. (R6V excluded)

If we are all gonna agree on one thing it should be that Jeff Gerstmann is an idiot and that his reviews are basically based on shock value and not merit. At leased he isnt biased though. He pumps out terrible reviews for all systems. Way to go Jeff!! As long as Gamespot keeps letting this stupid little boy review games, I will not take their reviews seriously.

I can so make a joke about Jeff and Cooking Mama but as a sign of civility, I wouldn't. :)

Nobody bats 1000. The guy is paid to present his opinion, not facts. Sometimes his opinion is out of sync with the majority but how does that make anyone an idiot?

Name the last good review he did. His reviews are meant to piss people off and establish himself as a hard critic but really they are just making him look like an idiot.

Agreed, but looking at you sig, I was kind of hoping the Browns would draft JaMarcus. He's a big dude & looks like the only quarterback who could stay healthy while getting sacked 10 times a game. Maybe one day, they will actually put together an offensive line...
