Just saw this on digg:

Looks like your right. I think the road back to timely (credible) reviews at gamespot just got longer.

If there is somebody in management that who reads these posts, please realize that your audience is almost out of patience. Maybe it's time to make up with Jeff Gerstmann and get your reviewers back. The reason you have an audience that comes to your web page is due to your credible reviews made by credible reviewers. Negative game reviews will happen and people can't be fired for giving them regardless of what your advertisers want. In fact, negative reviews of high publicized games increase your credibility: especially if they are correct. The reviewers who quit appear to understand that. The message you sent to them in firing Jeff appears to have been received. Now the fundamental reason for your existence is in jeopardy

There is still time to keep your audience. You need make amends now.
