Some guy said his ex, an extremely small-time indie dev, slept with five people at games journalism sites in exchange for positive reviews. IIRC he posted it on 4chan, which is the most normal social media to do this on.
This was used as proof that the wamen were destroying vibeo game.
...and if I recall all the people and companies involved were basically irrelevant and it would've been hard to argue any meaningful benefit derived from the supposed sexual favors.
More or less. The game she was supposedly getting good reviews for was free anyway. It was always a weird thing to care about when you consider that "video games journalism" was largely just outsourced advertising.

I know what gamer gate is, but what does this have to do with five guys?
Literally just that she allegedly slept with five men, and 4chan tried (and arguably succeeded?) at making the phrase a meme.
Oh lmfao I’m dumb. I thought five guys the burger chain was involved somehow.
