Thursday Funnies: Poor Mr. Gerstmann

During Episode 9 of the Gameshoe Podcast, the gang got into a short discussion about former Gamespot reviewer, Jeff Gerstmann. For those of you who don't know, Gerstmann was dismissed at editorial director at the site in 2007. Some say this had to deal with his review of Kane & Lynch: Dead Men, which Eidos Interactive said was intolerable. The game was heavily advertised, so Gerstmann told it like it was in his review but suffered a ridiculous consequence. So, Gamespot terminated him and gamers threw their arms up in anger. Since then, Gerstmann co-founded Giant Bomb, which we love to shamelessly plug. Enjoy Penny Arcade's take on Gerstmann's story. We salute you, Gerstmann, for the balls you had to write that review.
