What is it with these gaming websites?!

Dasilva · 02-02-2006, 12:40 PM

Im so sick and tired of watching trailers and videos at 320x200, I mean I have a monster connection for what? Viewing blocky videos. I wish websites would actual display large resolution videos. [/end rant]

Lets start with Gamespot, lets go spam their forums, whos with me?

Gametrailers often let you see many of the latest trailers in high res. They specialize in trailers, trailers, and more trailers.

Game Trailers is rather outdated at times.

The price of bandwidth. Gamespot has hi-res versions of their videos on their premium service.

*stuboy* · 02-02-2006, 01:36 PM

Who actually subscribes to these premium services? I can't beleive people will actually pay for broadband THEN pay money to download advertising (demos, trailers etc.)

I know crazyness.

Money talks baby. If you want the high-res videos, you gotta pay for the bandwith. Gamespot premium is excellent.

Dasilva · 02-02-2006, 02:11 PM

You have it? Why dont the official websites feature these items at least?

A little off topic, but what kind of internet connections do you guys have, are there any 56kers out there anymore? I got 2MEGAS ADSL, so it´s about 200kb/s download..

I have a same kind of connection as you do.
