After covering 15 or so gaming platforms in the span of a decade, you can imagine how difficult it is to effectively display the plethora of content IGN created over the past 10 years.
With that said, you may have noticed some of the game profile pages have a slightly different look today than they have in the past. IGN are currently in the process of switching over our entire site to better organize our content and make our articles, videos, and user tools easier to find.
Square Enix launches Final Fantasy X 25th anniversary site, revealing new Nomura art, books, music releases, and merchandise.
Look I know VIII has its issues and all that but how on earth can the do big anniversary events with new artwork and merchandise for VII, IX and X yet VIII got sweet f*** all.
They could have given it something during its 25th anniversary yet all it got was a single Happy Anniversary post on their social media.
they should know that we are OG fans of VIII as it sold truckload as well. not as much as VII or X. I personally didn't like IX but X and VI are my personal fav.
Shadow Hearts 2 covenant is another game I love. I hope one day someone can make remake, I would be delighted
Final Fantasy VIII is great and you are always the first to defend it in the comments
The Wii is now a retro console. Let’s get nostalgic about an often maligned system.
Crazy to think the WII is to the Switch 2, as the NES was to the WII back then. 20 Year difference.
My wife asks me to bust it out (heh) everyone once in a while to play bowling and tennis with the kids. There was a ton of slop on it but some good stuff as well.
Wii was great but boy howdy did it cause Microsoft to go on a dark walk with the Kinect and the disastrous XBox One launch that they arguably never recovered from.
Not nostalgic for me.. I was there.. anyone who wasnt a little kid realized it was a gamecube with shit tacked onto it, it was the "joke" system and was well below even the switch in terms of comparing it to the latest machines at the time. The machine was well loved by young people and "casual gamers" who now remember it 20 years on, or in most cases more of its sales came in the 15-20 years ago range not right at launch- but again its not nostalgic for people who were "gamers" then really, just for those who ended up with one in their house, the games , graphics, interface and online features were archaic already in 2006.
A brutal reset, a smarter story, and a return to what made it great—Mortal Kombat (2011) revived the series.
Underrated comment. I used to hate that game so much that any time my siblings asked me to play it, I just picked Hom and shut myself down mid-match.
15 years went by so fast. I remember playing through the story mode at launch.
You can never have enough upgrades, its good to see IGN taking their site seriously. I know I went to the site and parts of the site would not load up right(partly due to maintenance, not my connection).
I like the new design ^__^
While I like the content of the site, i find it almost painful to navigate. I don't want 50 things happening on every page. With the obscene amount of ads on each page they forever to load. Then throw in the "to continue, click here...." ad's. Is there a good gaming site that isn't completely overloaded with CRAP?
IGN needs a complete redesign. Its current layout, while functional, is outdated, ugly, and cluttered.
As much as you guys hate its editorial content, GameSpot has the best site design out of the big-name game sites. Its design is fairly clean, looks nice, and its gamespaces show all the important info in an easy-to-read layout.
live for me. Probably not missing anything.
