Good call :lol:

If by "sign of our times" you mean the internet boom slowing down/stopping, then yes. If by "sign of our times" you mean the apocalypse, then no.

Actually, most of their content will remain free. The subscription service is for high bandwidth downloads and freedom from ads.

Of course, who ever let facts get in the way of a good post?

Oh well, always some other site to download for free...

Those punks at GameSpot really are intolerable bastards to consider charging money for a service provided.

I can't believe that people actually pay to use those sites anyway. There are hundreds of alternatives... it just takes a little more effort to find them.

I'm just annoyed that they now lock access to their articles unless you login.

Currently it's May 5th 2019 at noon exactly. We had to reschedule since Sadaam had one of his sons' birthday party that day.
That work for you? The 19th is open as well.

[groth2757]

Sorry! I have a dentist appointment that day. Can we make it the 19th?

[FatBurger]

Sure, no problem. Can you call satan and let him know? I seem to have misplaced his cell phone number.

[groth2757]

I believe his cell phone number is 666-HELL. Area code not important!!! Blah

Satan is my master. He buys my Metallica records for me.

Clearly, because all services should be free to everyone *slaps forehead*. It's call capitalism and if we didn't have it, you'd still be living in a cave, smashing yourself in the face with rocks for entertainment. No-one's making you go to Gamespot - if you don't want to pay, don't use it.
