Jeff is a ghost: CONFIRMED

Well it is Wikipedia.

must have been a damn good thanksgiving. 
  
/salute.

Fake.

that playstation all stars review really got to him i guess.

This is precisely why we're not allowed to use Wikipedia as a source in papers.

Whoa, thanks for the verification. I was about to start the memorial before I saw your post.

Well, he was on twitter 9 hours ago. Remember kids, don't drive and tweet. Some livestock might run out and try to kill you.

I'm sure if Jeff was dead he would have mentioned it on twitter.

Time to update the date of death on his Giant Bomb page.

RIP

Please refrain from spreading info of troll edits on wikipedia, it has been seen to.

I'm guessing he was so desperate to find people to play Syndicate with yesterday that he was willing to drive to Tennessee to meet them...

Shit like this is why schools don't let wikipedia be a source

If Jeff's been killed off by the Internet, he is officially a celebrity now.

I actually got upset clicking on this link. That's a stupid prank.

This is the user responsible

I've reported him to the Wikipedia admins.

I'll believe it when I see it on wikipedia.

oh, wait...

You come at the king, you best not miss.

But guys... What if he's really dead!

Also, this was hilarious.

I'll put this here for references sake.

Death

At approximately 8:30 PM on November 25, 2012, Gerstmann was pronounced dead in a Tennessee hospital. His vehicle is reported to have collided with a tree on the side of I-55 as a result of swerving to avoid some livestock escaped from a local farm

If this turns into a meme, I might just have to find a new site.

This quote made the thread worth reading.

Maybe Brad won't leave now that Jeff is dead.

If anyone is writing a paper about Jeff, I want to read it.

Oh troll Wikipedia edits, how you continue to be unfunny. Anyway, I'm pretty sure that Jeff is immortal.

When I was like 15 I used to take the Star Wars Wikipedia page (considerable length), run it through babelfish to translate it to German, and then translate it back from German to English and re-post it.

It seemed funny at the time.

Some time past, in place far away...

@FizzleNizzleBear: Haha. Based on my experience in Tennessee, that's entirely plausible.

I'm thinking of the ways people could run this into the ground. It's terrifying.

Well it was nice knowing you guys, with Jeff's passing and Brad leaving to IGN I guess it's par for the course.

It was suicide. he just could not get over losing Spanner to that Fox. RIP Jeff and Spanner.

It'll be run into the ground before the day is out.

Don't worry, Leigh Alexander's coming to fill in for them. She's loud enou... Fuck, I can't do this, I can't become what I fight.

What? Are you thinking Brad orchestrated the whole thing? That's SICK, man... but probably true.

This makes me wonder... what if a murderer setup Wikipedia edits of people dying before it happened, only to make sure it did happen exactly as described?

The Wikipedia Killer! Oh no, Jeff!

#TeamWikipediaKilller

That is kinda . . . disturbing.

If there is a way to truly win a thread, you've certainly discovered it.

Say it ain't so

If anything was going to kill him I thought for sure it would be the raid. Crossing my fingers for a resurrection.

I do. The guy responsible for this deserves to die. I´m serious.

Even threatening Jeffs well being in the most remote, virtual, nonsensical way = a ticket to the slaughterhouse. You have all been warned.

Is it confirmed whether that local farm was funky or not?

Disgusting, simply disgusting.

Funky barn?

Why would anyone do this if it's not true?

Guess you can say he was stumped.

Damn. Video games will never be the same anymore.

Guess I should head to the gas station and Party City. Anyone knew his favorite 40?

Will they live stream the funeral? WILL THE FUNERAL BE ARCHIVED????

@pyromagnestir I don´t care about any fake Jeff Gerstmanns out there. They may live and die as they please.

But this wikipedia scumbag is on my hitlist.

I hope all the Jeff Gerstmanns of the world are okay.

@iAmJohn: @BlastProcessing: No regrets, The Man has paid me well.
