Hey there Gamespot,

I visit your website several times a day from my mobile phone (Microsoft Lumia)...

For the past few days, your articles stream has been chronologically out of order...

For instance, scrolling down from the feature articles, the article at the top will be from 1 day ago, 1 day 11 hours, 2 days 4 hours, etc...

I have to dig down to find your most recent articles, and even then I'm not sure I'm catching everything...

I have tried signing out of my account, but the result is the same...

Is this a known issue?

Is there anything I can do to fix it?

Thanks!

It's not an issue, they choose to show popular articles first now and it is stupid. On mobile you can't even sort by recent.

@brn-dn: Thanks for the reply...

Yeah, this pretty much ruins this website for me... I'm sick of scrolling and scrolling then scrolling some more to find the most recent articles...

Bad Show Gamespot, Bad Show...

Edit: Very interesting how a Thumbs Down emoji and the mention of another gaming site have disappeared not Once, but Twice here, while I have yet to receive any word on whether there will be any kind of "Sort articles by..." feature added...

Coincide? I think not...

Sorry guys, we do indeed need a way to switch back to "Latest" news on mobile. I'll get a ticket filed for this.

Why would the most the popular articles show first? In what way is that preferable when this is supposed to be a gaming news site? Unless it isn't that anymore. Wouldn't you want the latest to show first? It's not even worth coming to on mobile.
