Major Victory

As you're no doubt aware, the GameSpot reviews team is in the process of staffing up after a number of well-publicized departures. Today, we're pleased to announce that our first new hire is none other than Chris Watters! You may know Chris from such literary works as his Nanostray 2 and EA Playground reviews, or from his screen roles in our Halo 3 and Team Fortress 2 Tournament TV shows. You do not know Chris from an episode of Desperate Housewives or as "Major Victory" from Who Wants to Be a Superhero?

In other news, we'll be posting our review of Gran Turismo 5 Prologue later today and, at the time of writing, one of our reviewers is ranked #8 in the world on the Xbox Live Arcade version of Battlezone! It really has been a day for the ages. No, really.

    Chris Watters needs to get his head examined. Team Fortress 2 with an 8.5? That's an insult to good taste. The game is one of the most played shooters on PC for a reason, the game is far better than any other multiplayer shooter in recent history, just ask the gamers. What a bunch of BS.

    All gamespot truly needs is more desperate housewife guest stars.

    Sarcastic comment aside I am very excited about this guy coming to gamespot.

    It's always nice to see a new face who can deliver the content that as well as the personality and humor that GameSpot is known for.

    It also doesn't hurt to have a fan of The Venture Bros. on the editorial staff.

    That's right, folks, I'm officially on the editorial scene. My first review, after my hard-hitting We Cheer expose, will be for a title sure to flip the industry on its head -- Teenage Zombies: Invasion of the Alien Brain Thingys! If you like brain-eating, there's never been a game more perfectly tailored to your interests.

    And for the record, I do not know shaunmc. I don't even believe he is a real MC.

    I see you're throwing him right into the fire to cover only the biggest games:
