Well after the initial shock has passed on the bombshell that dropped this week gone, I've sorting things out about what my plans are concerning Gamespot.

You see I use this here blog to keep track of my gaming activities and I like to look back on it and reflect on what I was playing at a certain time or what I was upto. If I was to get up and leave Gamespot then this would cease to be and it would mean that it was all for nothing. So I've decided to stay, although I will never renew my Total Access account in protest, I will also never read another Gamespot review, it may sound extreme, but i just can't read them anymore knowing that it's passed through the filter that is Larson.

The only exception is Gamespot UK, this is where my investment in time now lies. Those guys are working so hard for the UK community and we appreciate all their hard work and energy. We're finally getting tournaments in our region and we've had our own podcast for a while now. I feel really bad for the remaining Gamespot US team, Ryan, Kevin, Alex, Aaron, Ryan Mc, Brad, Jodie, Bethany and Brian to name but a few. You guys are all in a horrible place right now and I hope things work out because it's been fun watching you guys these past few years, but I guess all things come to an end.

So here's to my blog, my personal reviews and to all the thousands of Gamespot community members, but most of all here's to

Jeff Gerstmann. Legend.
