I've been notified that this got fixed last week. Let us know how we can replicate the issue and if you have screenshots feel free to share them.

Hiya Jody - it hasn't been fixed I'm afraid. Today - just now in fact - I've selected most recent and that works fine. Click "page 2" and that worked fine. Then, clicked to go to page 3 and nothing happens. I've linked a screenshot showing Chrome displaying the target link. Notice it says "page 2" even though the link for page 3 is highlighted. Similarly, highlight page 4 and the link is for page 3. Don't know if that's how it's meant to be (if say pg1 is actually pg0) but either way the link doesn't do anything unless the above workaround is used.

Well, you clearly know your gumballs. This works for me. As you rightly say it's not great having to work around this, but at least I can now actually access the content using the 'most recent' category. That's really helped!

In the meantime I can't help but think somebody at GS ought to be taking your observations quite seriously since this work-around would suggest that the issue is fairly trivial if it can be worked around so easily (providing you know how).

This is still happening on a daily basis. Right now for instance, when I go to the videos page, I can click on 'most recent' and absolutely nothing happens. Worse still, on the default 'most viewed' page I click the page numbers at the lower right to move through the pages only for nothing to happen then either.

I only really pay a subscription fee to access GS video content. I want to do this in a timely and straightforward manner and something about your website is preventing it. It'd be nice for this to at least be acknowledged - I've been a paying customer for a decade.

Hi,

To browse GS video content I used the "videos" link. I then get navigated to a page showing thumbnails for the most viewed videos. I change this view to "most recent" to see all the new video content posted.

The past couple of days this has been playing up. Yesterday even when I clicked on the "most recent" view, the website wasn't navigating to a new page and just sat on the most viewed category. Today, most recent brings up one page of thumbnails, but even though there are multiple pages, clicking on the page numbers to navigate through in order of posting time and date does nothing and does not navigate me to a different page.

This seems to be something that happens intermittently on a semi-regular basis. Could this please be investigated and resolved because it's really annoying.

Using Google Chrome v21.

Kind regards.

Or if they are large fans, or old fans both of which will often have native molex connectors.

Depends really, are you using the stock CPU cooler? If so, definitely plug it into the CPU fan header on the mobo. If it is a four pin PWM fan then the RPM of the fan can be properly controlled by the system. No real reason to plug it into a PSU connection that I can see.

Has there been some kind of a mistake with these videos being posted?

I have watched these videos, and I can quite honestly say that they are essentially advertising and/or promotional videos. Why have they been posted in the normal video section? They are not original Gamespot created videos. If they are part of a technology article, they should only be accessible from that article within the context of what the article is about.

As they are, they're showing off Dell and Intel based products. Can I assume from this that Gamespot and/or CBS Interactive Inc therefore endorses these products? Do you recommend them? Are you being paid or otherwise renumerated for carrying and hosting these videos?

If they are an advertisement then they should be clearly marked as such. If they are not, then I suggest you put up a few videos of AMD's products and maybe some other performance PC manufacturers, so you can retain some journalistic integrity on the issue.

I like my Gamespot content untouched by the hands of outside influence, especially companies that like to push their products hard. There's a time and a place for videos like that. The video section of Gamespot that I pay for unadvertised access to is not such a place. Please keep your website free of "sponsored" material, unless you're going to be transparent about it.

When downloading HD videos from Gamespot (reviews, previews, interviews etc) there doesn't seem to be much consistency in which format a user is going to get. For instance, your Final Fantasy Dissidia video review is in Windows Media format, whereas your Blizzcon Diablo 3 interview is in MP4 format. If I'm not mistaken, the UK and Australia created HD content is often offered in a QuickTime format.

What is the reason for this lack of consistency? It doesn't seem very professional to use compression formats arbitrarily. I'm all for offering a variety, but then you'd have to offer mutiple formats for HD video. IGN, for instance, usually offer HD video in WMV format and sometimes in QuickTime format. But if it's in QT format, it's almost always available in WMV as well, rather than instead of.

Is there a logic behind these choices, or is it just the whim of whoever happens to be encoding these videos at the time?

You seem to be confusing framerate with rendering mode though?

1080p just means that the resolution is the same, but with each frame refresh you get a full frame, i.e. the "scan" is progressive. As opposed to 1080i where you essentially get half frame (every other horizontal line) whereby the scan is interlaced.

It has nothing to do with framerate, because a game running at 30fps can be engine locked to run no faster than 30fps, but could still render in both 1080i and 1080p. The framerate would be the same, but the rendering mode would be different.

So, I'm thinking about importing Ghostbusters for my 360, since it's not released here until October thanks to Sony's exclusivity deal.

Many websites, including Kotaku, note that the US version of the game is region-free, as I believe quite a few 360 games are. My question is though, if I import the game and play it, am I risking an Xbox Live ban or anything like that? I know it sounds like a stupid question, but I'm not really well-versed with Live policy. It's a legitimate purchase from an online retailer, so the publisher and MS are still getting their money.

I'm vehemently opposed to game piracy and shady dealing, so I really wouldn't want to be banned for playing a legit game in the wrong region. What's the skinny?
