Adblock is disabled on latest version of Chrome (24.0). Gamespot links and videos work in IE and Firefox. This is the only website that has these issues on my computer.

What happens when you click a link or try to play a video? I only ask because I use Chrome and I haven't had any problems with this site, but I have had problems playing videos on other sites. Most of the time a video will start and then it will stop and start loading, but will never play again.

I know you say that you've got adblock disabled, but I have a suspicion that that might not actually be the case. If links aren't working at all, then it sounds like you might be unknowingly blocking some of the tracking javascript that CBSi sites use (at least that's been a Chrome issue on giantbomb lately, so it may also affect here). Videos can then be explained that they won't load as they can't load the preceeding adverts.

i have adblock enabled on firefox but it still loads and plays the video (without the ad haha)

my google chrome is vanilla. no extensions nada. and it still doesnt play videos. sometimes it does. like once out of 100 attempts. and that doesnt mean refreshing 100 times, it means,, by chance

so adblock is not an issue i think. any solution?
