Intrusive ads & greed
November 28, 2021

Loved ign, but over the last 5 years their ad policy has become the most intrusive in the gaming industry, so much that u cannot even scroll down the page without it stuttering, reloading, ads auto playing. It's basically greed, if u need that many ads to keep going, ruining your customer experience, then hey, lower your outgoings/employees/greedy shareholders etc so you can deliver a half decent service. Most of the decent reviewers have lefts it won't hurt the business if you let a lot of them go. But hey, greed will always come first, especially for American companies

Wide Coverage
January 16, 2024

My favorite thing about this site is their extensive coverage of different gaming platforms and devices. Content are concise and straight to the point. It's nice how they're always up to trend with recent releases of games, movies, and other entertainment.

As a gamer, I'm impressed by IGN's capability to deliver consistent reliable resources for the gaming community. The video and podcast also adds a unique element to what they cater because not every gaming news site have these features. I do hope that they improve the loading speed on some of their pages because it may take some time to load.

It's a pretty good and entertaining place to check up on to stay up to date with the latest news in the gaming world. They also have some fun content on their youtube channels and in other social media.

Can be better
October 7, 2017

Game reviews are just so bad across the board and IGN is just the epitome of it all as they seem to rate games slightly higher than everyone else while being the most known. There's only a few people like Jim Sterling that even properly review games. Even Yahtzee's reviews (which really aren't reviews) have more credence than most professional reviews.

Back in the day, IGN was one of the good video game review sites, but now, it's nothing more than a joke. The reviews these days are horrible, as IGN will give good ratings to Call Of Duty games while any game involving Sonic The Hedgehog gets a bad review. One Kirby game got a low score because of the complaint about the campaign being short (which is kind of expected from a Kirby game). This is not a site for those looking for honest reviews.

Overall... Good!
July 22, 2021

IGN is one of my go to places for game-related information, reviews and trailers. However, I think they should just stick to game-related stuff and step away from movie information and reviews. If I want to read movie reviews or information on movies, I will go to IMDb. Anyway, overall, IGN is a good website to visit.

My favorite site not just for video game news and reviews, but also for anything entertainment related. Great interface and easy to read. My only complaint is the amount of ads that pop up right over the article you are reading.
