They were bought out by Best Buy and the site is being revamped.

NO services plans, god dammmmiittt, better slit my wrists now.
 
Half the time the front page of CAG doesn't have any deal-related topics on it at all, just a ton of off topic stuff and here you guys are giving this guy shit for asking a question about a another gaming deal site. Way to go.
 
Geez, it's not like the two sites have exclusive readerships, I know I was a reader of vgtalk.com as well. It's a pretty valid question. Sadly I don't know what has happened, either.

Woohoo! Thanks!
 
I am also a MEMBER of both sites and I am glad you ask that question because I was thinking the same thing. It is to bad some people have to be JERKS about a valid question.

I was wondering the same thing. I might pm zoltek99 and see if he will respond.
 
I wasn't being a jerk, I was making a joke.
I was also wondering what happened to it, I rather enjoyed visiting there, but i have no input in the matter, so I didn't respond seriously.
 
I don't mean to hijack this tread but I have noticed allot of sites have been down recently. I haven't been able to access ubisoft.com for ages.

VG was started before CAG, please don't start this childish crap.
 
VGTalk blatantly steals deals from CAG. I posted about how La Pucelle was $20 here, some guy posts it on their forums (nice enough to attribute it to me) and the front page thanks him, even though I have a VGtalk account as well.

Plus that is some stupid ass site design.

Regardless of who came first, VGTalk was the best at actually posting deals on the front page. It wasn't until I moved to the forums on both sites that CAG took precedence.
 
If it means anything, I don't what's happened to the site either and I'm a mod there. I'm hoping to see it up again soon...
 
Damn, I was hoping someone had an answer in this thread.

I too am wondring what happened to them.

And for what it's worth thier front page was better.
 
I could say more of what I know about the situation, but I don't wanna start a ruckus here. Besides, this is CAG and not VGtalk, so whatever I say as a VGtalk member has no merit.

If you're a member there and want to know what's up from what I know, I'd suggest for you to PM me.
 
PErhaps they server got so bored it lapsed into a coma. I joined that site around the same time I joined CAG but it wasn't very long before I stopped checking for new stuff on vgtalk.

Yeah, they posted a lot of deals, but weren't very good at verifying that they wereen't YMMV, and weren't very good at updating their live/dead status either. And the quality of the forums gives GameFUQ's a run for their money.
 
*topic merged*

I have been trying to log on the website for the past 3 weeks and I haven't been able to get it. I'm wondering if anyone else is having the same issue? CAG is great but I like to have as many resources for cheap deals as I can. Thanks!

Actually, EA just bought it from Al Gore.
 
Honestly...who cares?

This is a useless topic and will warrant nothing but flames and poor comments. I am gonna just lock this as this is NOT the VGTalk tech site nor does this site have ANY affiliation with that site.

No matter what is going on over there is has NOTHING to do with CAG.
