I was wondering how many people here pay for GS... if you do, is it worth it, and what are some of the differences?

I don't, and I won't. I don't think it's a good way to spend mah moniez.

No. Apparently Gamespot has something against Paypal.

Nope. I've been thinking about it though. Wouldn't hurt to chip in since I like Gamespot so much. ;)

Yes, Gamespot Plus and Total Access (previously called Gamespot Complete back in the day). You get no ads, a user created board, colored usernames, game guides, live event coverage, HD video downloads, and more with Total Access.

Years ago, though, you had to pay in order to watch most of Gamespots video content.

I paid for Total Access in my first year, used pretty much none of the features, and that was that.

I do now ;)

Thanks for reminding me TC. I thought about upgrading a while ago but I never got around to doing it, and now I'm signed up for a year! Might as well support this site since I use it so often.

No. the only reason I would is to get a colored username, but that isn't worth having to pay every month for.

I did, but next month is my final month. The reason was to get a UCB. I used to be hugely active back then, but now... I am still, but not as much. I can still keep the UCB while i'm not paying, so.. no harm done. I'm guessing that's why people still pay if they are... either that or the colored name which I don't understand. :? Everything else they offer, you can get for free... really.

I never have paid for Gamespot and probably never will. I have a Total Access account because I was a moderator a couple years back ...

I pay for GameSpot. I like contributing to one of my favorite video game sites.

I don't really see any advantages...except maybe no ads.
