As far as I know, it's down to the fact that our pals at Edge have only recently wrestled control of this site away from the NextGen folks. Given that they were, in many respects, quite seperate when the web-accounts were created, nobody linked in the forum accounts.

Rob_Jackson said, "Needless to say I will not be jumping through this dog's dinner of a process to chat on the forum." If his 'chat' is always in that tone, I for one am not disappointed by this.

@Rob_Jackson (below): While the release cycle for videogames will never make July one of the most exciting months, saying that there are no good new games just shows laziness. Equally, writing off all sequels as poor quality is a fool's errand. Besides, sequels sell by the truckload, so your point looks out of place below an article about sales. Perhaps amazon is suffering because in these hard times a lot of people simply don't have money for games. Forty quid is still forty quid no matter how much value it represents. If PSN is even showing half the ingenuity and quality of XBLA then amazon will also lose out to some very worthy DLC sales.

Now being discussed in the Edge online forum:

Awww, your sad little face! Me no likey change either, but the website is infinitely more attractive than the Next-Gen one, which was pretty horific, as aesthetics go.
