    http://www.gamefaqs.com

    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.

    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.
