Hero-of-Time Posted May 1 Posted May 1 (edited) Polygon is being gutted. Quote The video game website Polygon has been sold to Valnet and much of its staff has been laid off, Kotaku as learned. Founded in 2012 under the Vox Media, the site quickly established itself as one of the premier outlets for original reviews, reporting, and cultural analysis in the world of gaming. This industry continues to circle the drain. Edited May 1 by Hero-of-Time 2

Happenstance Posted May 1 Posted May 1 It’s so annoying what’s become of that site. They basically predicted a lot of the internet booms before they happened so to just see it fizzle out is really sad. 1 1
Happenstance Posted 23 hours ago Posted 23 hours ago Jeff Gerstmann addressed what’s going on with Giant Bomb at the start of his latest podcast. It’s a bit long winded but still interesting to hear how the issues have been going on a lot longer than fans probably realised.
