For those not up to speed on the Gerstmann incident, Jeff Gerstmann was a review editor for GameSpot, who was tasked with reviewing Kane and Lynch. CNET owns Gamespot, and happened to be running quite the intense advertisement campaign. After Jeff turned out a negative review, he was unceremoniously fired, which Gamespot insists the two events were unrelated, but most of the industry suspects otherwise.

Now, the represcussions are still being felt as Alex Navarro, review editor for Gamespot, and a full time employee of 8 years has also announced he will be leaving the website. It’s hard to say whether the two events are related, but they seem closely well timed, especially for Alex, the review editor. It’ll be impossible to know exactly what went on over at Gamespot, but the infamous event will continue to live on, over the internal debate about whether reviewers really get to speak their mind without fear.
