Please help! Ever since you changed the page format I have not been able to download anything. Today, the download button for Dolphinity Racer gives me a "404-Page Not Found" error. Quite frustrating!!!

I find your new website very frustrating. It seems to go in circles and takes you no where. I like the old set up better at least if you are offered a download it was available to download and not just screen after screen of going no where!

I agree with outbackbob01 in that the site is not user friendly. It sends you all over the place when all I want to do is find the download. I don't want to test my PC for speed as the site tries to direct me to a third party site to get me to purchase software I don't need or want.

Count me in to! I do not mind the look of the new design, but too busy with ads. I'm also am not sure where to get the downloads. Also, what about user reveiws?

I agree with previous comments. All I want to do is download the game, not speed test my PC. Unfortunately there is no download links, or even a link to the author's website.

Also you may want to test these changes with IE9. THere are a lot of images missing and somse of the bottons overlay text. I tried compatibility view at which point the comments disapeared.

Very disapointing that a tech site doesn't seem to know what they are doing with technology.

Let's see; I just read a teaser of a review - if there is more to it I can't find it. I still know NOTHING about this program, let alone how or where to get it. WOW - that's really helpful!

So what this page does is give us the name 'Dolphinity Racer' to Google or IE or FIrefox or whatever to do a search and find a place to download the game.

As ndgreen says, the new pages do not reflect well on PCWorld.

The game download is just below the "sponsor" try before you play link. It is confusing no doubt, but it is right there on the page. Sad that they have to hide things, and make it next to impossible to get the software with out having to guess which link to click.

After downloading, it is virtually unplayable on my laptop (asus i5 K42J)
I will however try it on my gaming computer. The control mapping is not the best I have seen, but it might just be the laptop can't handle the processing that this needs. Will wait and see.

As for the comments about this being a frustrating site, I agree fully.

WOW! WOW! WOW!

I have been with PCWorld since 2000. Your new web page is not an improvement. Actually it is so bad that there are no longer any comments for the program listed... Only comments on how bad your new web page is.

WHAT DOES THAT TELL YOU?

I agree with the other users. I have gotten to a point where I seldom even open the email I delete it instead. Please change it back

Don't advertise that something is free when it is only free to try. Very misleading

new here, read pc world occasionally and just joined to try a race game. I was able to download game by right click on "try it free" save. You'll need 7 zip or comparable software to unzip. haven't tried game yet but all files seem there. thanks.
