It just all feels like filler in place of a couple of stories they could have posted such as a recent rumour that new details of the Medievil Remaster could be announced at PAX East along with the funny story that Randy Pitchford embarrassed himself by pleading for cross platform play to CEO Kaz Hirai's twitter, not knowing it's a parody account. Both stories could have generated just as many hits and discussions then nearly ten Far Cry 5 guides.
Discussion? Possibly yes. But unfortunately I can guarantee that traffic-wise this couldn't be further from the truth.
However I would add that we've actually expanded the team; Glen Fox is focused mainly on guides, while we've added Stephen Tailby on "traditional" editorial. Effectively this means that we can cover more than we ever have in the past, although we still need to pick our battles.
To be fair the sites gone loads busy over the last year. Great stuff. I checked on Alexa the website traffic website and its in the top 29000 websites in the whole world. I dont know how accurate that is though.
In a few months Push will be that popular you can lobby Sony to get the games want on psplus!

I can see peoples points about the guides and they do clutter a bit but I don't think that us, as the core community, are the target. If these bring in the views, bring new readers and support the team then all for it. I would prefer it then click bait articles, like you'll never believe what Hideo Kojima said now...
If I remember correctly, I think I first came to the site while looking at The Last of Us remastered articles.
Now I may be an idiot, but there's one thing I am not sir, and that sir, is an idiot
@Rudy_Manchego I actually looked up this article on Google. And off course, it's Buzzfeed and of course it's as cringeworthy as I had expected... Thanks, I guess.
@Kidfried Ha I didn't know it was an article, I just know that Kojimo posted loads of photos of Mads Mikkelsen. That said, clearly click bait works I'm more than happy to write click bait for Push Square. You'll never believe what what Sammy said to Rudy... click here.
See, easy!

@Get2SammyB There's an advertisement covering the help/feedback/suggestions board...I had to use the search function to get to this thread. I'm using the Wii U browser at the moment, but this hoppened the other day on my Android phone as well...
@ReanSchwarzer7 Unfortunately, sounds like that's just outdated browsers. Obviously we try to be compatible with everything, but the Nintendo Browser accounted for 0.03% of our views last month so it's not really worth our time to cater for it.
@get2sammyb you also cant revisit your old comments. Under your profile - then comments - it prompts you to click to view the last 50 but wont open.

One of my favorite things that magazine reviews used to do is have a "Second Opinion" for the reviews by another reviewer...i.e. a small 2-4 sentence blurb after the main review with a different score (written by someone else). After all...reviews are subjective, so it would be nice to know what other staff thinks!
