More Kane and Lynch Review Shenanigans
Just noticed this on Digg… but apparently Eidos claimed that Kotaku gave K&L 5 stars. Only catch is, they never gave it five stars, and Kotaku was quoted from a hands-on preview at E3.
A minute ago I was willing to give Eidos the benefit of the doubt, and that they didn’t have anything to do with the Gerstmann firing. It’s believable that this was entirely Gamespot trying to protect an investment. Well, forget that. Who knows anymore?
So, who’s the new Sony? Gamespot, or Eidos? We need to pick one because my non-EA hate can only go so far, here.
UPDATE: Wait wait wait… stop the presses. Kotaku wasn’t the only reviewer that was misquoted. Apparently, they also had gamespy giving it 5 stars… when in fact they gave it 3. Oh, man, Eidos. Horrible timing, bub.

Wow, I think someone needs to just come forward and spit out the truth. The way gamespot and edios kept quiet at first really makes me think something FUBAR went on, but I think there might be more to the story then just the review.
