I wouldn't be surprised if they have. They've lost some star players in their team, afterall, and I don't think they have been replaced...then again, I'm not constantly checking Gamespot for reviews like you guys.

I don't think any us of are constantly checking anywhere for reviews. Let alone Gamespot.

I don't know about anybody else, but I read game reviews very rarely. Most of the time, it's after I've actually played the game, and I have a habit of reading reviews of games I've already beaten.

I pretty consistently check for reviews on Gamestop out of habit. I'll basically go there, read the news and then see if there are any new reviews I wanna read. That's just kinda what I've been doing for at least like 6 years now, I guess it's a hard habit to break considering how much time I spend online/thinking about video games, and due to the fact that I really like to try and make very well educated purchases and avoid wasting my money. I think the only thing that's changed is that I actually started using that as a hub to check what scores other sites gave a certain game as well in light of recent events.

I do the same thing. I like to think that my judgment in purchases in higher than the average gamer. Can't really think of a game I've read a review before purchasing in the last two years.

You really just keep on leading us right back to Sonic The Hedgehog.
