I've personally always liked it better in that the boards are plain and simple. No flashy icons everywhere you look, much better, straightforwardleveling system (IMO), and a much more efficient way of enforcing the rules.

I'm also kind of a newb to Gspot, but I've been at Gfaqs for a long time. I was also wondering, when CNET took charge of Gfaqs, did the users here throw a big fit about it like they did on Gamefaqs?

Gamefaqs somehow seems to house even more morons than here.

Heh, I expected as much. That's exactly what Gamefaqs users say about Gamespot.

Cjay needed the money I think... :P

Yeah, probably. Btw, in case you didn't hear, Cjay left Gamefaqs a couple of months ago, and now Sailor Bacon (SBAllen) runs the site.

Each side likes theirforum because they are used to it. We have the same asshats here that are at Gfaqs. The same can be said for the good people on both sides

Gamefaqs = flushing down the toilet

Never liked the site, its full of morons who have nothing better to do than insult, flame and troll your posts left right and centre. The few veterans on there have their heads so far up their arse i find it hard to believe they can still type.

*hugs Gamespot* theres only one gaming site for me, and only one site that has a good OT board :D!

Many GameFAQs users seem to think of themselves rather highly compared to us, which is rather pathetic. I prefer GS because of all the extra features.

I prefer GameSpot since I've only ever been on GameSpot, but I like the simplicity of GameFaqs. It's a straight forward design, but it can get messy since you can't quote. The people on there are generally nice until they find out your from GameSpot, then they can be pretty rude and useless(of course not all users are like that).

well, when you have a few (not saying all ) gamespot users typing like 12 year olds and ask us questions they could have answered themselves, it's obvious we'd act like smart asses and ignore them.

I have always liked the gamespot forums better. I use gamefaqs mroe or less for help in games, cheats and that kind of stuff. Kinda went downhill when CJayC left and Gamespot took over offically.

I used to only go onto Gamefaqs until I found out that that account = Gamespot. I do agree that there are a lot more morons there and they allow illegal crap on their forums which I disaprove of.

They have nice faqs. That's the redeeming point of gamefaqs. Community - not as much.

I go there, specifically RI, when OT is being lame here. So, I go there basically all the time now. The users are more intelligent and funnier there.

I'd never stick up for the whole community, but there are a few boards where the people are funny, type well, and are not underaged.

I actually started at gamefaqs searching for some game info but found gamespot easier on my eyes at the time. The merger was kind of a non issue since the appeaance never changed over here at GS. There are bungholes at each site though so take your pic. :)

Where else can you discuss specific game related topics? Not to mention the plethora of FAQs they have. Also the site runs a lot smoother and is less buggy than gs.

I don't like GF. Their boards are blinding, they limit how much you can post, and the users are evil incarnate (especially to newbs).
