As my title says, they suck. I have been commenting a lot less now. Ill be completely honest... it's most likely going to drive me to other gaming sites. SERIOUSLY... THEY SUCK!

Hi all, I am primarily a console gamer. I have built gaming PC's in the past, but I never liked sitting down at a desk and playing with a keyboard and mouse. Now that I am married, it's even more of a big deal for me because I like being able to sit in the living room with my wife and playing on our big TV. My gripe with consoles is how console gaming is becomming a nickle and dime scheme with every little thing being absurdly overpriced and laced with DLC.

With all that said. I've been eyeing the Alienware Alpha. At $500, it's not too bad and from the review's I've read the graphics are comparable to the PS4. I also appriciate the steam sales and how many games can be had for anaverage of 50% off console prices often including DLC.

Does anyone have an Alpha? Anyone have any thoughts on it?

What is that supposed to mean? Windows mobile is the third largest mobile operating system. That's like saying, you don't support Ubuntu/Linux in the PC world.

When viewing the website on my Windows mobile phone, a pop up ad appears but is displayed behind the page content while at the same time meshing with the page content with sort of a bleed through effect. It makes the page unreadable. Please fix this.

As someone who came from IGN and was an IGN reader since the days when they were originally segasages.com, I can tell you that just In the little over a year I have been reading Gamespot, that Gamespot's news is always breaking a day or two earlier then most others and that the comments are generally pretty mild and aren't filled with useless console flame wars. Gamespot has become my go-to for gaming news. IGN on the other hand has become less of a gaming site and now writes articles on movies, comic books, and bad tv shows that people don't care about. Gamespot is a good site. :)

Yeah that's fine. One last thing... Is there a list or do you have any specific community managers in mind? Thanks in advance for all of your help.

So, I've messaged DigitalDame few days ago, and I have not heard back from her? Is there anyone else who can help me, or help me get in touch with the proper people?

Hi all,

I just wanted to say, that I really find the discussions on Gamespot to be really quite enjoyable. They are much more free of trolls unlike, lets say IGN or Kotaku. I was wondering, how does one become a Mod? I would love to help contribute and keep this community safe and calm from pointless console wars and flaming. Thank you in advance.
