I wouldn't mind the Giant Bomb in white but this white version doesn't look too great.

I'll stick with black. The white background is going to give me headaches.

White looks like it took less than a week to develop and test.

This thread is racist.

Also, white looks like ass because alot of the site graphics are still designed for a black layout.

White site.  Even though its easier on the eyes and loved the dark gamespot since it was dark green in 2001 I do enjoy the white theme here and really think it looks great and is just not a white background, seemes like a lot of new assets were made to make it an actual theme!

white looks weird.  Its sort of like a big textpad.  There needs to be more trim and some cool looking stuff.  Perhaps this runs better on lower speed internet computers?

The politically correct way to say it is "using black face for the site".

The black site looks much more well thought out and easier on the eyes in my opinion.

White needs some tweaking. They shouldnt have the full on black parts still, some sort of other toned down colour. Also it needs tweaking where some areas dont get seperated by lines properly.

The white site may as well be a yellow background with neon green text, because it makes my eyes burn if I try to read absolutely anything on it.

they need to tone the white down a few shades.

even if its not directly white, it will appear whiter against the blacks.

like #cccccc

I'd really like to use the white, but the fact that the header, footer, and main page are still black really ruin it for me.

White seems almost too bright. Black is defiantly easier on my eyes. Also, the site doesn't seem to flow as well with white. (color wise)

I would enjoy the white if, like everyone is saying, it was a little darker, but how about the best of both and have a gray background.
