For almost two weeks now giantbombs videos have either not been loading for me or have begun streaming only to cease streaming at some point before finishing. The thing is I haven't the foggiest idea why this is happening. Every other website I visit is not having this problem, my video drivers, windows drivers, flash player and firefox are all updated to their most recent versions and my internet connection is as perfect as its ever been.
What makes it even weirder is it seems to be totally random, its not a specific resolution of each video that is doing this. In the space of 5 minutes I can attempt to watch the low, medium or high versions of any of the videos and they will either load or not load.
Since clearly this has nothing to do with me or my pc as like I already stated every other website I visit is not giving me this problem their has to be something going on with giantbombs servers. Maybe the traffic spiked to an unimaginable level in recent weeks and thus any video being viewed by too many people at any given time isn't working for me. I dunno, thats the only theory I can come up with.
But surely I am not alone in this, their must be other people out there having this problem and if so is anything being done about it? God damn is it frustrating.
