N4G now sucks. No comment field and user profile.

Now? That place has been a shithole for years.

These moves are actually an improvement

I thought this was a hacked account for a second.
It's very popular gaming news site. Comprehensive gaming news from allot of different sites are shared and a community who can give your opinions through comments. It is almost the same age of neogaf.
 
About 3 years ago they banned me and deleted every post I had ever made with no reason given and the site owner(I guess) and editorial staff blocked me and or never responded. I still don't know why.

That site is very much dead now... what have they done?!

Now I think they will get no more than 5 visitors a day and a few clicks...

No one there 😂

Yup they have finally killed the comments section. Thing is the site has been broken for a while.. laggy loads, constant errors.. it needed it. Worst part of N4G was the mods, some of them are fully fanboys and would fan the flames of console wars to drive traffic.
Used to visit it religiously just to be on top of all gaming news, but stopped years ago and never looked back. Sad to see the communities die though.. some good peeps on there. Did enjoy the comments sections though, now no reason at all to visit the site.

I noticed it the other day and laughed , I was there since 2008 and got banned like so many last year because the Sony ponies couldn't handle the justified criticism being thrown at them the past few years . I've checked the site every couple month since to see how bad it kept getting, the only posts commented on were people glazing PS sales numbers and circle jerking each other while downvoting and spam reporting everyone else.

That's about the time I found Neogaf and it's been super refreshing , every other gaming site a scouted was woke trash or seemed super biased towards particular thing
 
I used to really like the site, same with Gamefaqs. It eventually got where most of the articles were....well, shit. I quit commenting there on a regular basis ages ago.

If the news they post is any good then it might be ok, but I doubt it.

Yeah, the quality of the content is just horrible. It is a breeding ground for click bait for sites like thegamer and gamerant. The people who used to post there weren't that bad, but the discussion reflected the horrible content.

Curating the content was a good move.
 
Fuck, Christopher and that Nineball son of a bitch. I hope one of you pieces of shit that mod for N4G sees this and gives me another 9 year ban since I don't give a photonic fuck what the staff there thinks.
Fuck them all collectively. 😎👌
 
That sucks, but I honestly only ever came across N4G for aggregated news, and never even knew there were community features.

As game journo sites have gotten worse, and they mostly source from social media sites anyway, I've barely ever used N4G in years.

Which one was the guy who posted/defended that quarter to three crap?

Not sure, but after around 2009/2010 I got banned and never looked back. The ban was for a few years and I talked shit and it went to 9 years.
Not really bitter. But a nice Fuck You out of nowhere to the staff, if they should find this thread? What's the harm? 😉
 
I clicked the link and...

That site looks like shit.
Last time, when I checked in on them… it was sad and pathetic.. They over moderated that comment section into a sterile, boring uneventful place that continues to hemorrhage users as time went on.They got asshurt because the open zone was getting more traffic and engagement than some of the articles. lol….

Probably back in 2010s, but now? The site went crashing down after the launch of the PS4, who the hell even cares about it anymore

Site was peak console wars, but when the PS4 got the gen on lock, the xbox branch fizzled out and the Nintendo one was long gone, that was after the Wii U failed miserably and their prediction about the Industry collapsing didn't come true, that was in 2012-2014
 
Getting rid of comments is probably the best thing they've done in years.
From what I can tell... nixing the forums and user comments will be their final nail.
If they did that, they must have found that maintaining those cost extra money they don't have.
I still laugh at the thought of being banned longer than the website survived. :messenger_grinning_sweat::lollipop_grinning_sweat::lollipop_squinting:
 
I have no idea what N4G is and I am so clearly in the minority that I feel I should know at least something about it.
 
Did the site still do vote ins to get the article shown?

It was junk. Long time ago my friends had a small game site. This was the tail end of the 360 gen. They told me they'd try getting their article published but would usually get voted down by users. Then youd see all these other indie articles posted. So there probably was some form of buddy buddy system where they'd work together to approve some and deny others. Like how Digg would do that with lots of power users purposely upvoting certain people's content.

Biggest ego tripping fanboy around he is. Couldn't stand the moron. I do hope the owners Wake up and realize how bad hes hurt the site. Its all PlayStation fanboys and has been for a while. Once upon a time it had Xbox, Nintendo and ps gamers. Hack of a site, with no talent, no writers, no content creators just steal other peoples content and push it out to get clicks. Annoying as like I said, enjoyed the community at one point and was a good place to get all gaming news for all platforms, since it became an unpaid shill for Sony.. completely stopped going there.

It's sucked for a long time….im not sure when it happened. I never engaged with the community but it was for a long time my go to place for games news. Then it just became crappier and crappier in some intangible way. I then increasingly migrated to gaf and have hardly been there for years.
