I have been trying out numerous other gaming sites lately and while none have me hooked quite yet, I have been very much displeased with Gamespot. 1. My number one issue is that the forums are completely whack now, and I have a lot of trouble loading certain links, too many timeouts, and also the site simply loading very slow at most times. 2. The community seems to be strong, but I do see dwindling activity in game forums as well as the main forums. 3. Fuse is pointless and tracking games and your friends is still not as intuitive as it needs to be.

Anyway, this site offers a ton of content, but I'm starting to lose fate in its reliability and community. I have enjoyed my time here overall and I've had plenty of great conversations and made some friends but I may altogether just find another site that can provide me the same content with less frustration. I am still in consideration right now so nothing is official yet but I thought I'd let you all know :)
