Is there a reason for years now gamespot is taking Article posted already changing the date and reposting as new news? some times gamespot actual bothers to change the "title" but just copy and past the whole article along with original comments.

Seriously why they articles arnt even update most the time stricly copy and pasted to new title with new date or it just the date changed.

And ton of people are aware of this too. one can just look at articles comments and see how many people comments about this been reposted

use uBlock Origins

this has been complained about for years and gamestop still refused to stop it, it gotten so bad cause other sites do this, that FF has hidden option to STOP autoplay search about:config for "media.autoplay.enabled." set it to false

chrome is gona add function to stop this too soon http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/chrome-finally-adding-autoplay-video-blocking-ability-mute-entire-sites/ and i bet when these function become on be defualt gamespot will cry " our setting " are breaking there site. cause such setting might break the player as noted here https://www.ghacks.net/2015/06/11/finally-mozilla-adds-working-html5-video-autoplay-blocking-to-firefox/

why am i getting harnessed with such pop ups on almost ALL game articles if i am not loged in? it almost like gamespot is tring to find new ways to annoy people.

for those that are not loged in and annoyed by this

ublock my filters

||lightboxcdn.com^

or as "my filter"

* lightboxcdn.com * block

alright if your using ublock origin update your ublock filters,

and wont need this and it will fix other things too

eh well the fix i post to to fix the image viewer is broke again, and other fix to fix the posting,comments is no longer needed

or better yet

https://www.gamespot.com/pyre/images/

image view for this dont work this with ublock on

https://www.gamespot.com/sundered/images/

image viewer for this does work ublock on

i have fix for this and comment/posting issue posted here

unfortunately this will revert most video back to the shitty ad player and have none of this autoplay videos crap either granted they do have subcription option

i have fix for this and comment/posting issue posted here

unfortunately this will revert most video back to the shitty ad player

GiantBomb has none these issue and video player is always the good player, and it ran and managed by same people , which make you wonder

great news and bad news

under my filters put

gamespot.com#@#script:inject(abort-on-property-read.js, _bt)

@@||static.gamespot.com/js/compiled/c27ebcd.js$script,first-party

This will fix the forums/comment issue and picture viewer not loading, unfortunately this will revert the video player back to the shitty ass AD player with autoplay and no quality control there will be update released for this so we can choose dont comment or post in forums have broke piture viewer and have the good player or fix post in forums./ comments and picture viewer and have shitty video player.

Update.

I can whitelist the whole page, and click on the image will NOT open the viewer or open big image, so long as ublock is enabled it will not matter, ublock literately need to be disable on site for it to work,, which is same reason why post on forums or comment dont work.

So gamespot is basically saying if you have ublock enabled even if the whole site is whitelist ( which leave ublock enabled but should let everything go threw) they we will break our own site.
