When I first discovered N4G.com I was excited. I thought it would be a cool site that would collect the gaming news from around the internet into one easy to find place. Maybe I was drunk when I found the site because I was way way wrong. The site became a place where low rent game blogs would spell out the five same reasons why such and such console would fail while their champion console will rise above the rest to cure cancer, find pi to the last digit, usher in the third age of mankind and play the latest space marine brown tinted first person shooter best.

Yet I still go there everyday. Not for news but for interesting opinions on my favorite hobby. Well one of my favorite hobby’s. But after going there on a regular basis for over a year I’m thinking of just cutting it out of my daily internet routine because of the reasons above. You may have thought those were exaggerations. You may have thought that I was attempting humor. You’d be wrong.

Though I’d love to get on their front page one day.

    I completely agree. This is the worst gaming site I’ve ever been to. It is an infested breeding ground for misinformation, for all the reasons mentioned above. Whoever created the site had a great idea at hand and is making a lot from advertising, however this site doesn’t promote healthy competition, it is only an advocate for bigotry.

    My main problem with N4G: tons of whiners.  Oh, random website didn’t give this game a score that I agree with.  Boo-hoo!

    Exactly.  It’s one of the main reason’s why I stopped going there.  I check in on it every so often and get immediately reminded on why I hate it.

    That’s why I started using vgn24.com. I got tired of the n4g BS.

    The site is f*cking garbage. Trolls get away with too much shit but the mods do nothing. These trolls get together on their little coalition groups to mark people as spam and trolling. There’s no sense of justice on that site. PS3 forums is better.
