Seriously Gamespot this has been ongoing ever sense the new site rolled out. Why should I have to go through PS4 and Xbox articles when I am browsing PC news from (http://www.gamespot.com/news/pc/).

Here are some examples from the latest 2 pages:

  • Nintendo Forces Takedown of Super Mario 64 HD Browser Project
  • Batman: Arkham Knight Special Edition PS4 Announced
  • No Man's Sky on Xbox One is Something Microsoft "Would Love to See"

  • Gaming Deals: $220 New 3DS XL Smash Bros. Bundle and 10% Off PSN Games
  • XCOM a "Starting Point" for Bringing Wasteland 2 to Xbox One and PS4

Get my drift? Kind of defeats the purpose of a gaming website that has only two tasks at hand : 1)Provide content 2)Organize that content, pretty ridiculous that Gamespot users have to deal with this crap. Get it fixed.

@SiNoNaX: Sorry about that, I'll reach out to the news team and see if they have any insight regarding this. I assume this is a tagging issue but I'll double check. Thanks for reporting.

@SiNoNaX: Hi and thanks for bringing this up! Our writers are always working to bring relevant content to people who will want to read about it. Though looking over some of those headlines, I can definitely understand your frustrations. I've talked with the team to make sure that they're tagging stories properly so that if they're specifically about consoles (or console version of games) that they don't filter into the PC page as well.

However, stories like our gaming deals (since they encompass every platform -- including PC) and the Nintendo Mario HD version (because it's a version of the game that you can only play on PC).

But anytime you see something where we can make the site better, just let me know!

@DigitalDame , @justinhaywald Thanks for the reply it is appreciated. I suspected it to be a tagging issue, with a small amount of effort into tagging future articles it would be greatly beneficial. Will make sure to let you guys know if I can find anything else.
