I've been an IGN Insider for years now and one of the best thing about their site aside from the videos was their extremely detailed game search lists which were seperated into game system categories with each game name appearing on one line for the particular game name you put into the search field but now they've gone and replaced it with a tedious ad-ridden multi-page format that's very hard to read! And to top it off any system prior to current gen is lumped into the other category. :angry: Talk about fucking with a good thing.

Ok, Maybe im looking in the wrong place
but when i look at the game search and in the game collection place
it doesn't really look much different than it use to
the design is the new design but nothing's different
is that where you mean or am i crazy?

The IGN lists are detailed? I've always thought they were crap (especially for importing). The game values...eh, what a joke.

That's why I only use it to keep track of what I have. But lately it has been pissing me off. Takes forever to get a page to load when it has over 600 games.

Luckilly the game collection pages have remained the same for now, which is what the game listing search pages use to look like now they look like this: http://search.ign.com/find/find?objtName=all&ns=true&query=final+fantasy&so=exact&sort=date
You'll also notice that it says "new!" beside the search button on IGN's main page in the top left corner. I'm beginning to think their is something in calling them IGNorrant. @_@

Wow, that definately is a downgrade. Not to say there was ever much reason in checking IGN out, but now, even if I want to find something, I can see it being a real bitch.
Confirms to me why I don't pay $20 or $30 a year for Gamespot or IGN.
