Default Re: OT - Looky, I\'m on Gamespy!

The writing staff has done some interesting and amusing articles, though they seem a bit full of themselves sometimes. They also seem to mainly like vapid graphics/action games.

What I don't like is the way the gamespy program used to be a spiffy unobtrusive little utility that found games well, but since it was corporatized, now it's trying to sell you stuff, makes you register in their database, and various games require you to install GameSpy in order to play multi-player.

Also, the general mega-hype style puts me off.
