Four months, still haven't gotten a response on how to disable autoplay of videos. Do you not bother reading after you've posted something?

So, I guess my answer to your question would be a simple "No, I cannot take a picture that shows you what's happening."

From the front page (www.gamespot.com) the rage ad expands, when the mouse goes over the pictures beneath the latest headlines or clicks on the arrows next to latest headlines, it doesn't work. Not sure how I can take a static shot of a failed motion for you.

Tried taking a screenshot, but of course the mouse pointer is not visible, so it just looks like the front page, you can't see me moused over the Dark Souls image as it stays on the Gun Show feature. Also mousing over the top 10 thing to the right does not result in a pop out image of the game in question while the ad is expanded, tried doing that too.

Other than being irritating, that ad makes it impossible to change and/or open the latest headline scroller, as well as the graphical top 5 area freezing, mousing over new stories to change it, and clicking is disabled. The ad itself is slow as hell to close also. Remove the auto expand from the ad.

You want to put up annoying ads, fine, whatever, just make sure they don't break the damned site to do it.

How can it be completely developed in india by Fxlabs if they bought the game "The Lost" from Irrational Games? The game was practically finished for them by the time they got it. Though you did not directly say this was developed from scratch, that's merely a statement of fact about india, the HEAVY implications are that Agni was. That pretty much destroys any credibility you seek to have.

Review of Agni : Queen of darkness

There are very few games developed from scratch in India. Most of them seem like amateurish caricatures of AAA title, lagging far behind in terms of implementation. However today I have the pleasure of reviewing Agni which breaks the mould and delivers hope for the Indian gamer. The game breaks new ground on the Indian gaming scene, being the first to be developed and- tested completely in India by Fxlabs.

I played the game on two systems one with a Radeon 9600 and the other with a GeForce 6600GT and the game ran fine on both. Obviously this is no Crisis. But when you're in the mood for something fresh give Agni a try. There are no DirectX10 or HDR options here but the artists have done their best with the palette and come up with something unique. The environment are nicely textured,characters are very detailed and the animations are fluid. The main characters curves are perfectly recreated with a "polygon count" rivaling Lara croft!

No complaints in the audio department.. Let this be a note to other Indian developers with aspiring dreams of becoming a voice actor. Don't do it! FX Labs has obviously taken the trouble to hire professionals to maximize your aural pleasure. The sound quality is superb and I found it hard to hear compression related artifacts or ambient noises anywhere even on a high end THX certified rig. The voice overs are perfect. The music is atmospheric and can be creepy or toned down depending on the situation.

The artificial intelligence was quite competent and manage to block most of your best blows. On the low end system a couple of minor frame rate issues here and there but nothing show stopping. Of course this is nothing new and is to be expected from a game with so much content.

In summary, a promising game from a developer to watch out for in the future.

Whenever I click on a game for multiple systems, for instance the new information on the MK/DC game, I'm taken to the Xbox 360 site. I want to be able to set it to take me to the PS3 version.
