Turning on performance cookies works for me. However, even though I confirm settings I have to go back and turn on performance cookies every time I close the site or relaunch chrome.

Still very annoying but at least I can get the videos to work.

I've been paying annual subscription since it was first available. Since the original crew left the only reason I still come here is to watch old videos. But now I can't watch anything here. Pretty hard to justify paying the fee anymore

I am on chrome and cant watch any videos new or old...

This may have been brought up before and I apologize if it has. But where can I find things like the old obscure videos that used to be in the "Features" menu selection of the old VIDEO drop down?

Things like The end of The Matrix Online, The Star Trek Online Beta videos and the old Random PC game Feature? There is a bunch of old vids that I used to enjoy watching from time to time. Dave and Ryan did an all night Elder Scrolls stream with Morrowind and Oblivion the night before Greg Kasavin streamed Skyrim for 12 hours straight.

For the life of me I cannot find an easy way to find these without going page by page through every video on the site. I know that the live stream is always playing random videos but sometimes I still would like to peruse some of the old lesser known features.

The old Blade Runner adventure game and the Vinny and Drew Load our Last Save with Freedom Fighters were great. I know the search function will find these but if you can't remember the name of something than it's really hard to search, especially if it is something you forgot even existed.

I hope these things will eventually get categorized in the new Shows menu

After watching Mass Alex, I'd like to see them play through Jade Empire. I played through like half of it when it was ported to 360 and always meant to finish it. I probably never will but I'd like to watch the GB folks play through it.

I've been going through this for about a year now. I just bought a few games that were on sale recently but haven't played any of them. I am looking forward to RDR2 and hope Fallout 76 will be good, but I've barely played any games at all the past year or so.

For a while I kept buying them hoping that one would grab me like they used to. So far nothing has really kept my attention. Zelda was probably the last game to keep me wanting to play. Actually I got pretty into the most recent Deus ex also and actually played through it earlier this year. Just about an hour ago I was thinking about going back to The Last of us cause that game really engaged me.

To me it kinda feels like most games these days are so stuffed with things to keep track of and things to constantly manage that it just gets too easy to get fatigued by everything you've got to do. I end up putting the game down and when I think about picking it up again the thought of the management aspect makes me not want to, so I don't.

I'm looking for a game (I think) where I can get back to just being immersed in a world and explore without a ton of map icons, or being told to do this six times or that eight times. Or a game that just wants to take me through an engaging story.

Maybe I just need to step away from games for a few years and come back when things feel new again.

I hardly played any games from like 2000 to late 2008 when i got a 360, played Halo 3 and liked it a lot, Gears 2, liked it also, and Fallout 3 is what made me really Fall in love with games again. Maybe I just need another long break...

I was born in 77'

Had an Intellivision II when I was pretty young. I don't remember actually beating any of the games on that system tho. (possibly BurgerTime)

Got a Commodore 64 around the same time as the Intellivision and had a slew of games that my grandparents copied for me. So I guess my grandpa and grandma were the gamers in the family, but they lived Down south in Washington. I live in Alaska so I really didn't play games with them unless we were visiting them. I remember playing golf with my grandpa.

Got an NES when I was in like 4th grade. The first games I remember beating were Zelda, Metroid, Zelda II, Final Fantasy, and Star Tropics. I think I beat Ninja Gaiden also.

Never really thought about why I'm the only gamer in my family currently until remembering about the grandparents.

My two daughters play somewhat. In fact the three of us beat Magicka, and Rayman together when they were younger. We played Splosion Man and Ratchet and Clank All 4 One also. But they are older now, (both graduated high school) and arent as interested in games as I am, they do play games tho.

I'm 40, I've got two daughters (20 and 17). I've played games most of my life. Took about a 7 year break when my kids were born. Got back into it about 10 years ago when me and their mom split up. It was one of the things me and the kids could do together. We all still play games but not together so much anymore.
