This issue has been addressed before. I waited, but there were no real concern by site admins. Adblock is the way to go.

Trying to navigate this site on a mobile phone is nearly impossible because of the ads.

Not because they are there, but there seems to be a conflict with the ads and the structure of the site. I'm on a decent phone (iPhone 5) and this site stutters/freezes/crashes constantly. If I manage to close out the bottom ad it starts working much more smoothly.

Jailbreak -> Cydia -> Adblock = Better experience.

Still finds a way to crash once in a while though.

iPhone = Great gaming device. Don't agree? Who cares, because you're wrong.

I don't want to block ads, because they're pretty much what makes the world go 'round, but I'm increasingly tempted. Sometimes this site is unusable, and the video ads are the worst.

It's been getting silly recently. The titan fall one appears on screen twice on every page... downright frustrating. So looks like adblock for me as long as it works on safari.

I refuse to use Adblock - I feel that the disruptiveness of the ads should definitely be toned down.

Yeah I tried not to go to it, just because I dont mind websites showing ad's around the pages, I might even click on them. But when they are annoying and ruining the browsing experience, what can you do. After seeing about 50 Titanfall ad's just appearing on screens, it just gets unbearable.
