More to the point, does linking to this (http://www.penny-arcade.com/images/2003/20031205l.jpg) affect us at all?

EDIT: err.. yeah.

And presumeably all it will do is let you access IGN cheats through GS Arcade or sommat (:wtf: ) and be bombarded by twice as much... superfluous ... imagery if you happen to activate GS Arcade by accident.

Great...instead of two great, bumbling, money driven gaming networks that used to be the fantastic hubs of real gaming culture, now we have one.
