Another good website bites the dust....

Do you hear that sound of the toilet flushing?

does that mean you'll have to pay to access movie reviews and wade through full page flash ads? :roll:

Why, you don't enjoy that ?

Well.. It might not be all bad. It says they're keeping the same team and stuff.... shrug. I guess we'll see.

 

[Kadarin]

I'm all for it. But then again, IGN is a customer of the company that I work for...

Yea, I saw that. But you have to think that IGN has a vested interest in the website now.....

 

[Anubis]

this could be really bad

I hope they don't fsck it up completely.

Sometimes selling out is okay and acceptable. Sometimes it is a bad thing.

I got a feeling this falls into my second category.

 

[Rage187]

Yep, bad...

Knowing IGN they will mess w/ how the scores are tallied.

Then they'll charge you $20 a year to look at it.

 

[RedRooster]

Ouch, that hurts. I'm not a big fan of IGN at all, but RT was a fantastic site! Hope they don't screw it up, but I'd imagine they will.

I used to like IGN several years ago, then they started making everything member only acquiring all the other sites. Anyone remember Segasages/Gamesages before it became cheats.ign.com?

not to mention the ad-spammage EVERYWHERE! They will turn a 1 page article into a 3 page article, just to throw more ads at us.

[RedPickle]

[The Wildcard]

So now I have to load those ad pages where they ask you to click here if you want to "continue" onto the movie review?
