GBAtemp.net acquired by CNET Networks

[Tanks]

My pants = SHAT!

...

It all made so much sense too... That is until I realized what tomorrow was... XD

 

[phyl0x]

great joke, had me scared for a second, having those a--holes at gamespot buy the site..hilarious.

GBATEMP SCENE NEWS: KAIN & LYNCH unpiratable, best game ever, we recommend you all buy the game asap.

like a site about modding and umm legal backups would be funded by an a-hole licking corporate pandering company like gamespot.

Id be out of here so fast if it was true.

All the moderated posts are a nice touch, a nice showing of exactly what this site would be if it were run by them...a big ol' censored, userless site.

this joke would have worked much better if there wasn't the R4 1.18 kernel april fools joke already

Actually, it would have worked better if they had pulled it on April 2nd.

 

[pilotwangs]

Hehe,everyone wants this to be an april fool's and the R4 new to be real.

It's gotta be an April fool's.

April f00lz

Hey CNET_ guys, tell us more about you ... I believe you have a lot of common in between you all

Adam,Ryan, bla bla

I was at gbatemp's april fools joke thread and all I got was a stupid Ban.
That's okay because I'm behind at least 7 proxies.

I suggest we use "User Submitted News" as the new Testing Area.

 

[cupajoe]

This is more than obviously an april fool's joke. Just look at the banner. The day GBAtemp.net's banner has gamestop on it is the day I quit. If that doesn't get off of there soon, I'm done.

question to cnet:

how do forum members usually respond to acquisition?

 

[superrob]

Well i dont beleive this until cnet.com says they bought the place

 

[cupajoe]

Why isn't GBAtemp on the CNET banner?

 

[superrob]

I suggest we use "User Submitted News" as the new Testing Area.

I suggest General Offtopic!

[Hadrian]

Well done lads.

[Ryjuu]
