Yikes! All those "Edios" spellings were really appalling. Now I know why I catch errors on Gizmodo and Joystiq all the time. This story hit me personally as I've always been a staunch defender of GameSpot, even when its critical reviews have driven away people looking for all 9s and 10s. I still think they have a great staff and I hate to see them watch as their castle crumbles around them and their fiercest knight is forced to ride away just because the king wants them to cheat at jousting tournaments. Or something like that.

And, Chad, expect to see a VF panel based on this incident at MAGFest 6. I can't wait to see you all there! We love the PBC Productions.

I wasn’t aware of the many ripples and depth to this story until I surfed here through Joystiq. Great job, VF.

This is a great article, but can you please at least make sure to spell the company names correctly. You have Eidos misspelled Edios in several places.

Ooooh well thats all right then. Apparently gamespot is a standup operation with integrity coming out the wazoo and nevermind the fact they pulled the review.

But maybe that was just the boss’s decision. Well home many decision’s does the boss have final call on? Probably all of them?

Gamespot hasn’t been about revenue generation for the passed two years, thats just an unfortunate byproduct of popularity. Right?

When I want games news/reviews I go real gaming websites, not the likes of gamespot, and thats the truth.
