And thus, their quest to become the internet version of Spike TV draws ever so near. Any bets as to when they start advertising Enzyte on every other page?

NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

IGN is seriously a plague on the internet and I dont even wanna think about what they will mutate RT into.

[dave is ok]

Damn nigga

I doubt they'll change the content.

I doubt they'll change the content.

It's the design Im worried about... RT's is functionally perfect. IGN's is the worst Ive ever seen not on Geocities. You do the math.

[Cheebs]

Nooooo!!!! I love RT. Please don't change it.

[Drewbacca]

Relax, they didn't change Gamespy. They didn't change TeamXbox. They just want the traffic for advertising (more money). Changing a site usually uproots its loyal fanbase.

It'll remain the same.

The biggest change to a popular site was Gamefaqs. But after people got over the initial change and saw it was the same content with a better look they gave in.

[Despair]

I dont like new look of Gamefaqs. Its not necessary better, than it was, and the searching for subjects you need, and more confusing.

[Drewbacca]

It looks better and it's just as easy to navigate. Click on the navigation bar for a system and you're there. What's hard? People get too attached to schemes. But the point remains: The content has remained constant and unharmed.

I don't think this will effect RottenTomatoes in the slightest.
