I know that Mass Effect only got an 8.5 from GS, but they piss me off even more when it isn't even nominated for best Xbox 360 game. And it obviously isn't nominated for GOTY. Thanks to Kevin VanOrd, it's not getting the credit it deserves. I mean, exactly, who cares if the frame-rate gets somewhat ugly in a few parts of the game? Mass Effect shouldn't be bashed that much simply for that reason, and it's one of the most replayable and best games I've ever played.
How many of you here agree that GS likes to simplypiss us off now-of-days by events such as Cnet firing Jeff and now them not nominated Mass Effect for GOTY, and not even for best X360 game because Kevin gave it an 8.5? This could be the end of me trusting this site's reviews and yearly award events.

I stopped trusting gamespot's reviews a long time, and only refer to my local gaming magazine (Hyper) for an informed view on a game. Why? Because gamespot have been sucked up and molded into a team of elitists who complain far too much about a games fault and not enough focus on it's good qualities. Mass Effect is a prime example. A perfectly good game, with some minor issues, and it doesn't even recieve an editors award, whereas something like, Assassins Creed, which is simply plain, boring and just tiresome compared to ME, recieve that honor.
I'm sorry, but the people who review the games on this site stoped being gamers a long time, and have become mainstream journalists
But yes, I understand WHY it didn't recieve GOTY nomatation, or best 360 nomatation.
