farlaff on 12 October 2013

I think it looks like a ripoff from IGN. Thoughts?

I wouldn't go there anyways since it's a piece of dog poo. Gamespot has always been shit at the start and will be in the coming future forever and ever.

The look does look nice and clean but it came with a bucketload of bugs.

-Cant change avatar unless I open up my browser settings and changing something just to enable a avatar (the Upload your own avatar feature is broken)
-The number of forum posts went down a lot - I went from having 2k posts to 600.
-When editing your reviews or making new reviews - the user review scores no matter how high you scored it always comes out in 0.9 or something which makes no sense since they stopped doing decimal scores (8.5, 7.5 etc).
-When adding a new game to your collection , the number of your collection doesnt go up.
-The score breakdown list in the user review pages still shows default 0 even if you have user reviews submitted.
-When clicking on Inbox to check your messages - it either works but takes a long time to load or it doesnt work at all.


The only good thing that came out of this is the fact that the limitation for posting blogs is reduced from only limit of 6 a day to no limit - but that might be a bug on its own.

Been a member of GameSpot since 2006 and this has to be the worst upgrade they've done lol.

Dude you should quit gamestop. ;)

I'm more angry about their "second opinion" review of Bioshock: Infinite. 4/10 is simply an impossibility.

I hate that all sites are now using wordpress script - they look all the same and generic. GS had a fantastic custom script years ago.

They banned me three times. Their new look isnt quite well organized yet. Its a bland mishmash of facebook, ign and many other sites.
