Gamerankings just turned into Gamefaqs :(

Gamefaqs(despite being a good site) was always one of the worst looking sites on the net so it was a shock to me when I logged onto gamerankings and found it was now identical ins style to gamefaqs - which has been keeping the same look since about 1998.

Metacritic for me from now on.

Do they have the same content?

Style of substance eh

Just glad gamespot didnt brand gamefaqs when they bought it a few years ago.

Give me good content over appearance any day.

Gamespot must have bought them both

I assume I'm not the only person to see initially see gamefags instead gamefaqs?

I liked the layout of gamefaqs.com to be honest. Keeps things simple, and doesnt shove massive ads in my face. So this is a good thing.

I agree, it's a great, simple layout for when you just want information.

One of the worst looking sites on the net? I know that's an exaggeration but come on :rolleyes:

Go to Metacritic then, just going from one evil to another tbh

That's exactly what I saw :eek:

Am I the only one that doesn't see a logo on gamerankings? They both have the same favicon for me too so maybe the two sites are merging.

I don't use either.
