Those who will say "why do we have to pay for this now".... if it means enough for you to complain about it, it probably means enough to you to pay for it.

That's just not true.
 
In addition, asking a question is not complaining.

It's also extraordinary expensive to host and deliver TNT videos as they all are really, really, long.

Wait, what? When did we whine about it being for us only? As I recall it was a top man issue, so take it up with Dave.

Actually no one was really watching the archived TNTs, yes you will say you and many others were but according to the numbers your in a small minority, so they decided to make it a perk for subscribers. And if you really want to watch them you can still do so on JustinTV.

They weren't lashing out at you, they were referring to Agent47, you just asked a question, he made an  ignorant statement.

@RE_Player92: Because the first TNT just appeared one day with no mention/announcement on the site and being another Starcraft 2 TNT, that lead to not that many views. If they would've done it for a few weeks to get a better sample size and still got similar results, that decision would've been more reasonable. It's like putting out a terrible quick look of an unknown game as the test to see if quick looks should be exclusive to the paid members.

This was actually a pretty good TNT because it... wasn't really a TNT lol. Here's the Justin.TV page for non-paying members.  http://www.justin.tv/giantbomb/b/281772155 
 
Ryan McDonald does make an appearance!

@Agent47:  @FoogleSmoogle:   

You only have to be a member to access it via Giantbomb.  You can get it for FREE archived at JustinTV.  This is a treat for the members because the numbers showed it was getting very little traffic before and decided to do something a little extra for the people who support them financially.  Even if it was because members wanted it for themselves, there is nothing wrong with that.  Before, no one was getting it archived outside of JustinTV so its not like nonmembers are losing anything whatsoever.  Its an addition for members; nothing was taken away.  Also, its FREE, as its always been live on Thursday nights.

I disagree with Jeff. 
SF is way easier for a novice than MK, 
I am not really into 2d fighters, I am more a  3d Tekken and Soul Calibre fan. 
But I can get through the  the arcade mode in SF , but can not and never have completed the arcade/ tower mode in any MK game.
