I will be taking a leave of absence from the gamespot community for some time. Questions have recently been raised, in my mind, about the over arching integrety of CNET and Gamespot, when it comes to editorial journalism. I in no way mean to demean the individual employees of gamespot and I feel sorry that they have been put in this situation. However, I have a need for objective, unrestrained journalism. The mere fact that the editors at GS want to keep their job may very well preclude such journalism. I will certainly check back in to monitor the objectivity of GS, but until I am convinced that marketing plays no role in the editorial process, I cannot, in good concience, support the site with my traffic or subscriptions. I encourage every GS user to view the site with a skeptical eye and if you don't want to have your purchasing power dictated to you than do as I have and leave. Good Luck fellow GS community members annd especialy the GS team.

PS. You guys ( The GS crew ) should all leave and form your own site. you have the talent, you have the passion, and now you have the reason.
