Happy about the shift of focus to PC. My link to GON has always been http://games.on.net/?platform=PC and I guess I'm not the only one. :)

Could always make it look like gamespy... yaknow... everyone loves that site lol...

Layout is fine, just give a option for a widescreen version!


GameSpy's home page is actually really slick. The only issues I have with it are actually navigating to other parts of the site, forums and such. That and a bit of clutter on the left.

Hey does the changes mean whoever replaces the GoN bots will have to be up and have their news published before first run in the morning like they do with papers ?
Or will they keep sleeping in till lunch time ?

The whole News subforum needs a cleanup as EVERYTHING gets dumped in General for a very long time now.

First day seems ok with the new news setup so props for that.

I only support Magnet Nose, and only while eating ten mangoes and reading a mega sonnet.

Beware the agents omen of onstage men, for they are neat gnomes.

A segment on tango semen would be strange among teens.

Son, get mean.

10 times is enough.

+1, truly a mature and courageous decision (and before it's time, I think more sites will and should follow)

The "review" of D3 was just perfect :D
