    Just spent a few minutes watching the Best Of 2009 intro videos by GS. I've been around GS for many years now, and this year I couldn't recognize any of the GS guys on video. Did all the old GS guys leave this year, or are they just not featured in the videos?? I haven't really been keeping up with who's gone where, although I notice some GS guys on Giantbomb and IGN. I just didn't think they're all gone

    You mean the year in review video? That is the domain of our news guys, so therefore, our news team provided the talent. Because they are in news, you rarely see them (they don't do previews or reviews), though if you watched Today On The Spot, you'd recognize the wonderful and slightly insane Tor Thorsen. The guys you see there have been with GameSpot for many years.

    Yeah! I've been working here for two and a half years and I still have no idea who "Brendan Sinclair" is. His accent sounds Canadian.

    The year in review video is the people you mostly 'hear' in the podcast, TheHotSpot, and they don't really get on the shows too frequently. Glad you keep in touch with our old pals though; we still see them all quite frequently from visits to the office to press events to conventions.

    You don't know who I am? YOU DON'T KNOW WHO I AM?! I'm mother effing Tom Magrino, of GameSpot news fame! But to second Shaun, I have no clue who Brendan Sinclair is. I think he telecommutes?

    I'm on my fifth year of working for GS. Let me know when I'm old enough to count. Or to have my coworkers remember who I am.

    Hello? Are there any women here?

    Are you a beautiful woman?

    This is not as hot a party as I anticipated.
