Other than sounding like a bunch of idiots...what exactly do you have against Gamespy and IGN?
Do I read IGN regularily, no, sometimes I check their reviews, what reason is there to hate them exactly?
Gamespy on the other hand started as a little server scanning utility (that everyone praised just a few years ago) that has grown into a very nice network of gaming sites and other software programs. Their software alone has been used in hundreds of game titles and has significantly contributed to the way games are played online in the last several years.
About 4 or 5 years ago I bought Gamespy for $20 and still use it to this day. Best $20 I ever spent. And recently I even got a Fileplanet subscription so that I can get high speed downloads without having to wait in line to download behind hundreds of other people.
Just to add, a few years ago when Gamespy announced the Fileplanet site and it had a miniscule 50 or less downloads available listed under a couple of categories, people we touting it as a great idea. Now that Fileplanet is a huge success the same people are bad mouthing them for being successful and making a good business out of it.
So getting back to my point...what legit reason do you have to hate these companies? They are more successfull than you and contribute to the gaming industry, is that your problem?
You dont like that they have ads all over their websites? Neither do I, but that's the way the internet is these days. You have to deal with the ads. At least they offer payment options to get rid of the ads. Blue doesnt even do that, even though I've posted several times requesting it, and emailed him about it too.
