After some years of political wrangling, the good folks at Gamespot.com’s US headquarters have agreed to allow us UK peeps to start doing video reviews, starting with FIFA 09.
I guess I should explain in case there’s anyone who doesn’t know me that reads this blog :) I work as a video producer for CBS Interactive, formerly CNET Networks, who own Gamespot.com. Gamespot.com have an editorial team working in the UK office, just over the way from where I sit, only, until now at least, all the video reviews have been done in the US, for reasons that are largely beyond me.
Doing a star turn in this vid is UK Features Editor Guy Cocker, who I go some way back with now, all the way to the bad old days of the CNET.co.uk launch in 2005, where he and I were founding members of that now bustling consumer gadget reviews site.
Anyway it’s kind of a big deal for us to be working on games reviews now, and it was great to work with Guy again and we’re both pretty happy with the way it’s turned out. Check it out!
