This here is also a very interesting link. Someone called "gamespot" posted in a comment on a blog what seems to me like a very credible account of the current internal state at GameSpot.

Wow, now that's a scary report.
Gamespot's essentially lost all credibility with the one demographic it catered to: hardcore gaming nerds. These are the people who expect honest reviews (and Gamespot always rates a little lower than IGN or Gametrailers.com, etc...) and would be pissed at this exact situation.
The last paragraph, where reviewers at GS are now scared about giving a bad review is especially important. The whole website could crumble if no fans consider it an honest source now. Already people are canceling their online subscriptions.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
