Welcome to GameSpot Entertainment

i guess this post is misleading, because i see movies news on "news" link!!

Please NO! IGN is bad, please stop trying to copy them.

Huh. Now there's a listing for Staff Writer that vaguely describes this kind of content on the job site...is that what that new writing team is about, or am I off base?

so this is not related at all to the post, but i feel compelled to post something. it would be nice if the upvote button would let you know who upvoted your comment, i found it useful for finding like minded people. also an auto-refresh, for the comments, would also be nice :)

thanks for your time :)

@CallMeDuraSouka: no reason to personally insult someone.

This feels a lot like the Xbox One presser at E3 2013...

Trying to do way too much, and all you're going to do is piss off gamers. Good luck with this.

Wait....didnt Gamespot just layoff a bunch of good people, not too long ago?

They have totally cut their live gaming videos which is what originally made me a fan.

Now they are expanding into entertainment like IGN.

Hey, if the numbers say that is the way of the future, and the past Gamespot line up of videos and features cant make the bottom line work anymore.....i understand. Who am i to want to keep Gamespot from succeeding.

Entertainment is just not an area that interests me and its sad to think that the gaming end of Gamespot has been severely neutered to make room and budget for priorities so far from what made this site great.....and more honestly, what i enjoyed.

I miss Shaun, Carolyn, Kevin, Seb, Johnny, Maxwell, Ryan, Justin, Cam, and even Tom McShea. I know some left voluntarily but, things obviously changed on purpose.

Gamespot is blessed to have a Danny, Chris, Alexa and Mary Kish still around to make us feel like the place still has heart, but now i will worry even more about them. Oh, and Lucy James is a rock star.

Yes, time marches forward...things change...i get it.....

Ill stick with the gaming crew.

PS Shaun McInnis still rules!

when i click in "news" i dont want to see nothing about movie and comic!! put this on entertainment and let it die there.

And pray tell, which movies, TV shows, toys, and comics am I as a gamer interested in? Gamers are diverse, we're interested in lots of different things, and personally I don't care for comics and geeky toys. I'm sure we all have different tastes as far as movies and TV shows go as well. All you're doing is perpetuating the typical stereotypes about gamers.

I remember when Gamespot actually had quality articles, but for some reason they decided that the market no longer wants intelligent pieces on video games, that all we want are superficial videos. What a shame.

Wow, what a shitty move. Might as well just go to IGN.

Never gamble with your bread and butter.

Yah right, now make another domain for this, like entertainmentspot.com or similiar. Do not mess with this site, please.

As long as it's not being shoved in my face with the game news. I personally don't wanna see them or read them on this site.

I think having both sections go to the front page is fine if you guys want to just be a general entertainment news site however I think it would be really great to have the normal news section be specifically video game stuff since there is already a separate entertainment area. For me, the entertainment stuff is just noise. It's the reason I stopped going to IGN and why I came here. Thanks!

Or you could, ya know, make the website a place people actually want to go. Maybe don't run an ad before literally every video, or maybe make the website a little tighter and faster loading. Maybe if there were a proper comment system, where good posts could actually thrive, the community wouldn't be so toxic. Idk, spitballing here.

Dear Gamespot, will you guys be covering anything with Anime stuff since that too is Entertainment? I would love to see that as well.

It was bound to happen, and at least now there's an official announcement towards branching the website's coverage out to other forms of entertainment. I don't really have a problem with this, as the website has faced an extensive transition that pretty much conditioned most of us that spend a lot of time in the forums and the comments section to these changes.

Well I kinda made a suggestion that Gamespot should have there own Entertainment secion when I commented on Bugs Reporting & Feedbacks forum and this is exactly I always wanted to see. A separation of gaming news and movies, t.v, ect. on there own page.

Thank you Gamespot for doing this and I do like it when Gamespot report movies and stuff like that, I like to be on the know.

I just created an account on this site since visiting for the last couple of months. I've been on IGN since 2010/2011 and loved it up until the last 2 years. That site has went downhill so fast. They never post news when it is relevant half the time. There are errors in almost every article. They post way too many rumors that are from untrustworthy sources. They can't take criticism at all. As a gamer that is primarily on the PS4, they have stopped posting deals on the PS store. Ever since Greg and Colin left IGN the playstation department is a joke. I also have a passion for movies and television shows and that is what kept me on the site because I like to have news for most of the things I love in one place for convenience. After visiting this site, the gaming side is far more superior than IGN. I like this move to add entertainment, but I do think there should be a way to filter to see the content you want to see. I look forward to using this site so I can leave IGN behind.

It doesn't come as a surprise to me. You guys shifted to movies and TV shows and stuff a while ago. I kind of like it, actually, because I don't read specific movie/TV show sites and so I can get my news for both video games AND other stuff I like (because you're right, I do like many super hero movies, sci-fi/fantasy movies and TV shows, etc.).

What I would like to see is perhaps a separation, so that if I want to see both Gamespot Games and Gamespot Entertainment in one feed I can, but also the option to filter by ONLY Gamespot Games and ONLY Gamespot Entertainment. Maybe make it an account setting. I feel that would appease both the haters of TV shows and movies (who only want games) and also those who would like to see both.

No,no, please....that's why I stopped reading IGN....

Sounds logical to me; it can draw a larger user base. It's the IGN formula.

"At last we will reveal ourselves to our readers. At last we will have even more non-gaming articles"

Yeah, Gamespot has been doing non-gaming articles for a long while, so it's a very public secret, but I just watched The Force Awakens last day, so I'll comment with remade Star Wars quotes (even The Phantom Menace has some good quotes).

"I don't like change"

Also it should stop the MOVIEspot.com posts and the like from the morons !!

Good News !! Been enjoying the Movie news etc !!

Honestly, I only go to IGN for their reviews of episodes and such, so I'm all for you guys doing other forms of entertainment. I'm sure that's an unpopular opinion, but there it is.

That being said, make sure to separate them entirely. If people want gaming news, that's all they should see. If people want TV/Movie news, that's all they should see. If they want both, well, they can do some extra clicking to go between tabs. Don't throw them all in one news feed, it's too cluttered.
