" Just letting JIT know, they locked and moderated me on GS because you posted this here. They thought I copied it from you. Pretty sloppy moderation if you ask me. "
Yeah, I explicitly said that I made this thread too
" haha, sorry OP, but you probably weren't going to get many people actually reading your topic in the first place, and people just going "WHAT GAMESTOP > GIANTBOMB, NEVER NO NO NO" for that, I've never really used any other gaming site besides giantbomb, so... "
Hey, no problem, as I said, its copied from the gamespot board, but it seems like a nice welcome to see how GiantBomb's OT are compared to Gamespots OT
I'm a member at both sites and spend about the same amount of time on both. GameSpot for the blanket coverage of all things gaming related, and GiantBomb for the games I care about and the amazing staff and no BS reviewing. To be honest I'd spend more time at GB but I run out of content there, they have a small crew so it's pretty easy to read and watch everything they put out daily. But that's how I'd like it to stay, cause it's a lot like old GameSpot the days with Greg Kasavin, Giancarlo Varanini (before he left) Jeff Gerstmann, Andrew Park (I think he's kind of newer, but I love his reviews,) and all the others that I'm forgetting. Those that've been reading the site for a while know what I'm getting at, it seemed like more of a community back then. You saw more pranks and funny behind the scenes videos, and just content that was designed to amuse you. Now it seems like they've put on that "video games are serious business" tone and lost a lot of what I liked about the site....to the point where I just come here for the info. So I'm using both sites to satisfy my different needs...GameSpot for gaming information, and GiantBomb for the gaming community and character that got me hooked on video game sites.
Anyone else a member of both sites and have any thoughts on why they use one or the other/both?
Cheese smiles outside a returning rash. A terminology crashes behind a sweet wheel. Cheese exports chicken past a daily successor. Cheese parades the sensitive editor past the milk blade. Chicken toes cheese next to a proud cry.
