This is an interesting trend I've noticed lately, especially with Giant Bomb up and running: People on both Gamespot and Giant Bomb just can't stop bitching. It's either about the other site, or about people on the other site. GS's Off-Topic board has at least 1 GB topic (good or bad....usually the latter) and GB's Off-Topic board is much the same, only they talk of GS.

Why are people so hung up on this crap? They are just video game websites. They don't affect anyone's life in a dramatic way, yet they feel they have to bitch and moan about the flaws on one or how much the other sucks.

Let me ask you this: Do these gaming sites honestly affect your life in any way? Could you go on and live a normal life without GS or GB (or other sites for that matter)?
I think we all could, but hey, human nature tells us otherwise...
