An option to see 'Guests' comment
Sometimes when I read an article I notice the first comment has been blocked due to to other users 'flagging' the comment.
I think it would be good if we had the option to see the removed comment if we choose to (similar to youtubes 'see comment' option)153 votes -
Make it easier to find review
The new format isn't very good. I can't find the comic book section or all the reviews for the comics released. Could you make it easier to find them again?

Allow users to see removed comments if they choose to
On almost any high traffic article, the top comment gets flagged and removed, leaving an entire page of comments responding to something that the reader can no longer see. When a comment gets flagged, hide it by default, but at least allow people to read it if they want to.

Video
Change your video player. It's extremely snow compared to Youtube. To those with fast computers, the problem is almost none; those who don't have fast computers and Internet, IGN's video player sucks.

PS3 App
The Xbox 360 was just given an IGN App to use while on their consoles. Good deal! However, at the moment I can only afford to support one console and believe that many gamers are in the same boat. I own a PS3, and as much as I'd love to own a 360, I can't right now. I'd would love to be able to go and watch IGN reviews and videos on the console I own with an IGN App or program of sorts for PS3.

More like "Get to Know Diablo"
the "get to know diablo" article by charles onyett looked great. as did the mass effect 3 review.
please, ign, more articles like this. well written and visually stunning.
also, i know you hear this a lot, but your video players kind of suck sometimes. i understand there are numerous reasons for wanting to host your own videos with your own video players, but you have yet to reach the streamlined reliability of youtube. i often find myself leaving this site so i can find the same video on youtube knowing it will work first try.
overall though, you guys…

Where is the summary rating?
The usual "summary table" is crucial in order to know where exactly the game excels or has flaws...

Tell Colin to stop making up facts
Colin you say everyone has forgotten about the Mass Effect 3 ending. There's no proof you are just saying things. It's not a fact at all. Did you take world wide polls because I never was asked, so your statement is wrong.

Feedback Button Location
Current feedback button on the right side of the screen obstructs the view of the webpage. Please move it to the top of the page next to "newsfeed"

Better comments section.
The comments section is not very intuitive. The refresh time on comments is very long. There is no reliable way to search for sub discussions inside the comments. The way to track comments you have replied to does not work very well. I think a dedicated form for each comments sections would be nice.

More review pages like this one!
I really enjoy the new layout of the page, it gives the look of a magazine article. Great work!

Change the commenting system
The commenting system is absolutely terrible. Make it more like youtube so that the newest comments are displayed first and comments that receive thumbs up get their place on a top line. You should then make a tab for the replies that we can decide to open or collapse so that we aren't forced to see all replies. :)

view comments and replies in your profile
at the moment when you are told you have a reply to a comment you have made you then have to scroll through pages of comments just to find a one line reply, this can be very annoying. the comments should be connected to your profile more. so there is a place you can view all of your comments, and the comment threads you have been a part of, separate from the article. kinda like the way facebook deals with showing you comments and replies.
