Whats happened to all the reviews on gamespot... even after the release date.... and never have a review, only a preview... they used to be really good, get in the first reviews, must be going poor or sumit...

Yeah i agree with ya, no conflict denied ops review or turning point i don't believe a frontlines and definitely not an army of two one up yet. But they seem to have alot of time and manpower to write "hands on" previews no one really cares about.

i personally lost my interest in GS when they changed their review system...its not precise anymore and the wow factor is gone because they lost their top reviewers (GS used to be very strict and whenever it gave superb review, it felt like something big) now the games have inaccurate reviews example Assasins Creed 9.0, God of war CoO 8.5, Mass Effect 8.5...i just come here for the forums to get new info on games... and GS now takes alot more time to review games than ever before...

no Army of 2 review, no Turning Point review, no Bully review... I'm sure it's all because the Jeff thing, since he was fired, pretty much everyone left...

I never paid much attention to their reviews, because I rarely agreed with them. If I do watch/read them it's just to get info about the game and I filter out all the bias and opinions.

They sure had time to put up that Super Smash Bros Review wicked fast. And on a Sunday no less.

This site used to be awesome.

Their review team has been cut down by like 40% so I don't really blame them.

IGN FTWW Besides You get suspended here so easily even posting a thread about needing help.

IGN'S XBOX STAFF Hilary, Erik, and Nate are the best! Listen to their Podcast its really good. ( Its three red lights podcast)

I know seriously...where is the review for Army of 2? this makes no sense...video games is all you do. They certainly have plenty of adds for it plastered all of their sold out website...but can't take time to review that mediocre game?

I smell something VERY fishy with this website!!!

IGN is better anyway

They won't put up reviews until ad campaigns are done for each game. I'm not very reliant on gamespot any more at the moment. I'm waiting for Jeff G's giantbomb(dot)com to launch for good reviews/funny podcasts/funny videos once again(although he is doing it in blog form at the moment)... The man knows his games, and he will not fall under the pressure of suits.. since he will be the owner of the site. Can't wait until its launched this summer!

I agree. It kind of annoyed me that they change the rating system but it takes them ages to write reviews now. I think the problem should be adressed.
