Yep, it's true. Anything is possible, and GTA IV may just be the first game in the history of all things gamey to be absolutely perfect. It may just bring mortal men, weeping, to their knees, cure world hunger, restore the worlds environmental balance, and discover the cure to ageing. On the other hand, it may just be a very good game. Hi Andor. Yep, it’s true. Anything is possible, and GTA IV may just be the first game in the history of all things gamey to be absolutely perfect.

On the other hand, it may just be a very good game.

The odds are very high that this game is not perfect in any way - note, that does not mean it can't be great. The odds, however, shouldn't really have any say in this sort of thing. I agree, no one should trust GameSpot, nor many other reviewers. But shouldn't we wait for the game to actually come out? You don't *know*, it *might* be proof that God does in fact exist. Seriously. It could. Anything is possible. You can't deny that. But you haven’t tried it, have you?

I'm interested in hearing what you have to say about it, and the other games you're reviewing. Good going by the way, it's great what you're doing with the journalism thing. One of many links http://ve3d.ign.com/articles/news/35614/GameSpot-Fires-Jeff-Gerstmann-for-Bad-Review. The game in question was Kane and Lynch: Dead Men. Eidos had ads for it all over Gamespot and allegedly threatened to pull them. It doesn't give game reviewers a good reputation really. Thanks mate.

I let you know if I get to review the game & I agree a perfect score should never be touted for a game. Do you have the link to the news piece on the Gamespot sacking reviewers?
