So a few hours ago GT posted their video review of uncharted 2.  I was shocked to see that the video review actually contains some spoiler about the game. Having seen countless of video review I really don't think I ever saw that level of unprofessionalism from people who are considered to be professional gaming journalists. I really don't have the slightest idea of what GT were thinking when he was writing, recording, and then VOing  that review. I wonder just how many people in Naughty Dog and Sony GT have just pissed off.  Bottom line that if you are going to have spoilers in your review then just make the effort to put a spoiler warning and let people make up their own minds. Sad to see a major website lose credibility just for the sake of hits.  
 
DO NOT WATCH THAT REVIEW!!!! it will spoil plot points for you. I wish I never watched it.  
 
Update: It seems I made a mistake by blaming Geoff for this review. He had nothing to do with that video review and all blame falls on  shane satterfield and Brebdon Johns. My apologies. 

I couldn't care less about Uncharted and now that you said there is a spoiler then you have caused more problems for everyone.
 
Congrats.

" I couldn't care less about Uncharted and now that you said there is a spoiler then you have caused more problems for everyone.  Congrats. "

Lol. Owned. Personally, if I don't want spoilers, I go on media blackout. You can't risk it. But that's rare really, I don't mind a spoiler here and there, few games have worthy storylines at all, their main draw is interactivity, the actual game, and the rest is mere dressing for most of them. Even movie trailers nowadays show you almost all the plot points, you don't go watch it to see if the good guy wins in the end, you go to be entertained, as also most movies plots aren't that worthy by themselves either. Well, that's my 2 cents. Sucks for you though.

Yeah. GT is pretty much notorious for having straight-up factual errors in their reviews, this time they just went a wee bit too far.

How has he caused more problems for everyone when he is warning people of spoilers? "

I used to post on gametrailers, Geoff Kieghley didn't write that review or say it. It was a guy called brandon and the media director shane satterfield is the one who decides all the scores for the reviews. 
 
Usually I forget the video review when I play the game and watch it again when I finish it for a new perspective on the review.

I'm not watching it then, fuck that.

Hes right. There is a big gaping spoiler near the end. One of the clips with one of the characters who'd they'd been setting up doing something that was obviously a big twist. Anyone with a brain can work spoilers out from circumstantial stuff. Stupid gametrailers.

You know... game trailers used to be a website that only played "Game trialers" :D 
 
but.. um.. what are we complaining about? I don't see anything wrong here.

now I am going to watch it right now. I can't play the game anyway so I wouldn't mind seeing some of the story 
 
@bonbolapti:  yes yes thats all fine but now its so much more!! I'm not complaining

Spoilers never bother me.  Because telling is never anywhere as good as seeing.  
 
Someone told me the end to Fight Club before I first watched it.  But the second Jack said, "Trust me, everything's going to be fine."  It was, and shivers ran up my spine.   
 
  

Casually watching that I didn't see anything glaring wrong. Well, other than the review going on for ten minutes and meandering about. Nothing happened there that I didn't half expect was going to happen anyways.

Where did you get the idea that Keighley does any of that? "

I watched the video review for the heck of it and I didn't get any glaring sense of being spoiled.  Only thing that was spoiled IMO was the video showed a lot of crazy game events that happen (think things exploding, crashing, collapsing, and such).

As an executive producer and host of the TV show you would think he gives the final OK for everything. you your ass that he approved it.  extremely unprofessional on his part.  "

"you your ass"? Anyway, no I wouldn't think that. That's a TV show. I thought we were talking about the site's review here. He is not a reviewer nor does he do the voice-overs for them. The final OK would probably be done by the editor-in-chief, Shane Satterfield. "

Dear dude you are right about the review but HE didn't review the game. 
 
He is not a reviewer in GT...It think it might have been Shane saterfield . and the voice is Brenedn Johns.

Ok I'm gunna just say the spoiler that they spill in the review. 
 

SPOILER ..... SPOILER ..... SPOILER ..... SPOILER ..... SPOILER ..... SPOILER ..... SPOILER ..... SPOILER .....

SPOILER ..... SPOILER ..... SPOILER ..... SPOILER ..... SPOILER ..... SPOILER ..... SPOILER ..... SPOILER .....

A note if the 'spoiler' is what those worried that they've been spoiled is what is spoiled above.
 
In Uncharted 1 the same thing happened, but it turned around by the end.  So really you don't know anything until you play the full game.

i love the comments on the review going "OMG 360 BIAS this game should have gotten 0.2 more!" when the review basically gushes over the game for 10minutes. fanboys are funny
 
the spoiler didnt really bother me, i still want to play it bad

I haven't watched the GT review yet, but I'm gonna go with 'The people without American accents are bad' ??  If so, I'm not sure you can really describe that as a 'twist' anymore.

GT's reviews have always been and will always be pretty shit anyway, just ignore it like the fucking plague that it is.

" @Killjoy: Dude. He completely gave away plot points and the one of the last cutscenes was just "TMI Geoff". Go watch the other video review and you'll see how GT just completely botched that video review. Besides, a 10 plus minute video review is too damn long. Video reviews should be 5 minutes long, 6 tops, thats why we have written reviews. I really hate those kind of reviews that brake down the different elements of the game instead of judging it as a whole piece of work. It's the equivalent of a music reviewer listening to master tracks and then writing a review about the album based on how he thinks the record will sound when all the tracks are combined. I don't understand why you are trying to defend GT when it's clear that GT just did a horrible job and it makes them look like amateurs. If being angry and complaining about a video review from a major web site that contained spoilers and did not even give the courtesy of a warning label is nitpicking then so be it.  "

Watched it now.  Dollars to doughnuts this 'spoiler' isn't as it appears in the video review.

Yeah really. For all you know, this "spoiler" happens in the first half hour, and if the premise of the remainder of the game is based off this story quirk, then obviously they have to talk about it to some extent. Is it a spoiler to find out the boy from 6th Sense sees ghosts? No, the premise of the whole story is based on that. And you don't find that out till like 30 minutes in.

I didn't even realize their was a spoiler when I watched it, and if it is what somebody has already said, it has been known for a while...because a video of the game was released a very long time ago that showed this "spoiler"

For the last time geoff keiley is not the one who said or wrote the reviews of gametrailers, shane satterfield is the one who decides everything like the score and videos on the site and brandon says the voice. Geoff is part of spike t.v a host of it, he is a host of a different network that is related to gametrailers because they are both part of viacom, he's not the media director. Maybe I have to prove it to you because your statements are so wrong. 
 
Brandon, here he mentions he voices most of the video reviews.

That Brendon Johns has a great voice.

I watched it and didn't see any spoilers whatsoever.  
 
I ain't got a clue what you're talking about. 

" How do you know that spoiler doesn't happen within the first half hour of the game? People bitch way too much about spoilers. I get if it was like super end-game spoiler or something but knowing one little thing that people happens early in the game is nothing to cry about. "

I just saw it. The review didn't have a spoiler until the end and it was annoying although nothing too big. "

" @Scooper:  Also apparently according to GT the game has many doublecrosses to the oint where you will actually not know who is on who's side, in a good way, so hey, it might not even be too much of a spoiler. "

GameTrailers' reviews are terrible. They always spoil parts of the game because they don't know how to review games properly.
 
GameSpot and GiantBomb are the only ones who actually can, but GS only reviews popular games or shovelware that nobody cares about.

Eh. I'm more annoyed with the score GT gave it. The review partially doesn't match the score and it feels like GT low-balled the game a bit. But that is personal opinion knowing full well I've not played the game yet. I'm just going by other reviews.
