I feel they still have some flavour they used to, but it got diluted. Partially it's the natural author / rehiewer turnover,Partially it's the volume of Deals and Hardware video articles and generic press release news. They don't even call them wot I think anymore :).

It's still the single gaming site I follow the most. But it's not quite as concentrated fun as it used to be.

Cannot speculate how much of that is due to being bought out and integrated a few years back. I think it's correlation as much as causation.

Some of the old gang have started their own things but they tend to be very niche.
