This is all a bit 'he said, she said'. Interesting though.

On the bright side I'm sure he could pass for a fat elvis presley, so if he can sing he has his next job sorted!
IF this is true then noone will ever believe a review done by gamespot again

The funny thing is that I thought a 6/10 was a high mark for the game. At the end of the day its yet another example of poor game design, coding and control. It's absolutely crap this game and if the rumours are true then Edios and Gamespy need to disappear. Edios haven't release a single decent game in years.
yep, this is what a guy gets for honestly reviewing games.
Well, if its true then I plan on never trusting Gamespot again. Its sad that there are major sites that don't have the courage to separate the advertising from the reviews.
At Eidos this isn't up for discussion, they're just locking the threads.
But sites need to give an honest review, thats what the guy did and was being paid to do. Sounds to me like wrongfull dismisal.
The next time gamespot recieve a large amount of money for advertising and they give that game 9/10, beware!

How is 6/10 not above average? What is 5/10 if not middle of the scale?

I was surprised that after such a vitriolic review the game still managed to garner 6/10. The game looks like crap and apparently plays like it also.
