I've converted to Giant Bomb. Regarding GB, I just wish their article titles were more descriptive and the site layout was better because I enjoy the content.

I get a lot of news by way of CNET and I hate seeing more news organizations merge because it generally results in less coverage overall and less valuable/reliable coverage. Not that any one news organization is great, it's just that when there are many independent news organizations, you're more likely to get better coverage than when just one big conglomerate is covering the story.
