Hey Fab, thats not an official sticky topic, thats just someone else's post. When there is an official sticky post on Feedback, I will post there. No where on this site does it direct me to post my feedback there.

So again here is my post:

Before I wanted to comment on the site changes, I wanted to give it a chance to sink in, and get use to it. Now being a Lifetime member of Gamespot, I just love this site always have and always will, but I have some issues with some things, so please humor me on the next few issues I bring up.

First, the Calendar and Most Popular on the main page, I hate them and I do not understand them really at all. There just clutter on the main page, you make them more efficient in my eyes if you do the following.

First off scrap the Calendar the way it is now. Move a "Calendar" link to the top of the page, and give us a real monthly calendar (like a share point calendar or even a microsoft outlook calendar, something like that) and then populate it with events.

So on my main page the way the Calendar is now, when its 5/13/2011 and I look at my main page, I dont have to see events for 5/19/2011 for 6 days in a row. (as well as other future dates) Its clutter.

But if I click on my calendar link at the top of the page, A Giant calendar takes over the screen, with populated events from Gamespot, and here's a cool feature, we can put stuff on the calendar as well. Like coming soon titles, or dates were reviews are expected to be released, things like that.

There is more calendar stuff but moving to most popular for a moment.

Now with most popular:

You have a "Coming Soon" there, now move that to the Calendar as well. You also have "Highest Rated" which I do not get because I can take my cursor move it to the xbox 360 link for example, and see the choice of "Top Games" and it shows all the Highest Rated games for 360. And that works for every system. But hey, thanks for telling me the highest rated game for the WII, but dont care, dont have a WII, so its clutter to me. More stuff I am forced to look at then what I really want to see.

And I do not get what the "Overall" thing is anyway. Lose it since that info is already in it's designated sections, it doesn't need to be there. Once you see it once your good, but you see it every day, day after day and it takes forever for the games to change on that list. It is just more clutter.

I have issues with "In the Mix" but I read your *about regarding that section, so I will let it be, but that section is terrible fyi.

As for the "Latest & Greatest" section. Here is the greatest flaw with it.

Five days ago, I read news regarding Mortal Kombat. I love MK, article was awesome. Problem is that it was five days ago, and its still on my main page of news. Thats the problem!!!!

Give us a check box next to every article so that when we are done with it, we can send it to an archive, or just remove it, and then let any other additional news fill it's spot. Every other news site I go to can do that, why can't you guys?

By no means am I trying to do your job, or call you guys out or anything like that. These items I listed, to me just do not make sense is all.

I'm sure no Dev's will respond to my little post, which I understand. But I do hope you take alook at the items I commented on. At least consider some changes with the news and calendar sections, because leaving those items up there for those many days, is just annoying and clutters everything up.

Thanks for the time

No worries Fab, I'm sure that's when the feedback was only on page 1 or 2 when it was still on topic. But people using caps say I hate it, talking more about IGN comparisons, its getting off topic.

Thats what I see

To me the thread is already kinda hijacked. People complaining about IGN look, people complaing about hiring practices, its stupid.

I read that thread, its getting off topic. Go take a look

Atleast I got the chance to give my say and I am happy with that,but do not lock it, for that thread.

Give me a break.

If it was atleast official and useful I can see your point. But sadly I do not see that. Just go read pages 3 and 4.

guess you never played the thief games on pc. All really good games based on stealth. And what I dont understand is people saying I'll get it when it drops in price when you can pre-order it for 20.00 less at its launch.

Buy the game at 39.99 at launch beat it in a week, trade it in and get max trade in value, like 30-35 bucks while the game is still hot and shiny new, or wait till it drops to 39.99 normal and then beat it and trade it in for 15.00.

Think you would be losing out on that actually. Just a thought
