Oh crap. That sucks. I really enjoy going to GT.com. Hopefully MTV doesn't mess with it much.

Interesting. I would never have figured MTV to purchase Gametrailers.

damn, well i guess it's good for the owners of gametrailers.com, but this is just a quick way for mtv to get some legitimacy in the gaming community. they better not change GT, i like their video reviews. i don't want want their reviews to become to the video equivalent to a maxim gaming review.

Didn't they already do enough damage to video games with that Video Mods shit? :roll:
It's not really going to screw up the content, just more ads around - look at gamefaqs when it got bought out. The negatives are the disabled direct linking and more advertising, but the faqs are still good.

I really hope they dont mess it up. That is one of my regular sites that I check out. I guess the thing that I would be most worried about is what has already been mentioned as far as the reviews not being as reputable.

Can someone mention the Video Game Mods thing? I've not actually watched MTV for years, so I'm not aware of anything that has gone on there.
