No, it's not April Fool's Day. To quote the Simpsons: "I had a big company, and he had a big company, and now we have a very big company." Former rivals IGN Entertainment and GameSpy Industries have kissed and made up and have signed a definitive merger agreement creating the Web's largest network of destination sites for gamers. Both brands will remain separate entities.Source: IGN Wow! Big merger! I have been a member of IGN for a couple years now. It should be interesting to see what, if any, members of either service will get from the other service.

Being a member of ign for the last year and a half, I feel the site does not yet equal the cost of 20 dollars a year. Having seen Next Generation collapse and die, and daily radar fold, IGN.com has been temporary video game review site to fill a empty void. The merger hopefully will bring some new features that are actually worth 20 bucks a month. Personally, I think the Penny-Arcade comic, states this news the best.
