I don't want to browse every section (I'm a multiconsole owner) and I want to see the big hot topics box back!

What do you think?

They have the recent threads section on the bottom right corner. It's almost the same thing.

It's not as good as a dedicated Hot Topics box

IMO, the recent threads box should show more than 10 threads. I'd vote for 20.

Also, I miss the ability to filter "hot topics" by forum, within a single box.

I agree I want it back

AND THE SIDEBAR that went red when you got quoted (lol am I the only wanting that feature back)

You're not the only one. I think it was one of the best features VGC2.0 had.

Tbh, I do not like the new layout AT ALL!

I'd like to see the hot topics link back. Was nice being able to look at the popular threads.

Hell no bro.  I want it back too!

And Red/Green/Blue for Sony/MS/Ninty.

Forums are a bit to green!

imo thats one of the best features any forum ever made has had, because I don't go on any other forum that had that feature!
