Forums - Website Topics - The appeal of VGChartz is gone.

I don't know about anyone else, but having charts, reviews, news, and forums all in one nice place was the best thing about VGChartz. The new site is a chore to maneuver between different areas. VGC3.0 gets a 0.5/10.

I give this thread a -10/100.



Random game thought :
Why is Bionic Commando Rearmed 2 getting so much hate? We finally get a real game and they're not even satisfied... I'm starting to hate the gaming community so f****** much...

Watch my insane gameplay videos on my YouTube page!

I agree with this, give it some time they will improve on it and make the site better than ever

Why is it everything after a comma does not show up in a post?



There is a reason there is a hub site, though functionality will improve as time goes by please just hold your horses lol

I will say I agree. This new layout seems more form over function. I think the other one work out well and it was easier to navigate.

Bleh, I don't know. What I used this the most for was clicking the games in my collection and wanted list to see how they're selling each week, and that doesn't happen anymore. Or at least it isn't at the moment. Hopefully they can fix that. The concept of a hub site just doesn't appeal to me though.

I don't want to go around complaining, really, because it feels disrespectful, but I kind of agree with the opening post. This new design feels way overcomplicated compared with what it used to be, to me. :/



I liked the central-ness of the old one. I happy for change but keep it central !!!

I know little about websites except what I do and do not like about them lol Anyways what do you mean by hub site??



I agree that what was great with VGC is everything in one place, you could follow the latest sales numbers and sales articles from the front page, check out recent gaming related news AND see what's going on in the forums, all at once.

To me it looks like most of it is still there, the reviews and the blog/news posts have been chopped out (tho it seems sales related news still remains on VGC). It is a little confusing that some of the news posts appear both on VGChartz page and the gamrFeed page, I think I preferred when all of them showed up, but I can certainly see the reason for this, some of the blog posts were a little childish and kind of unrelated to what VGC is about.

On an even more positive another note, I really like that you can see YTD sales on the main hardware graph now

Look and feel - I dunno, will have to use it a little more, certainly glad you got rid of the dark look of 2.0.
