Fired Kane & Lynch Reviewer Gets the Last Laugh, 5 Years Later

Game reviewer Jeff Gerstmann, who parted ways with GameSpot five years ago after publisher Eidos took issue with his review of Kane & Lynch, has returned to his old stomping grounds. GameSpot parent company CBS purchased Gerstmann's website, GiantBomb, today. GiantBomb will still exist as an autonomous publication. [Justin.TV]
