I guess it was meant for gamer news section.
actually he has a valid point, and he's not bitching about it either.
I've been here since 2001 and I never saw a game patch making front page news.
Except World of Warcraft maybe ..

I just feel that if the staff deemed it appropriate for the front page, who am I to complain? Does it hurt me in any way at all to ignore a news post? If it does, or I simply feel that it's actually a mistake on the staff's part, I'm quite positive there's a better place to submit my complaint using the Report a Problem link shown to the left of the article rating.
It looks like this is a pretty big patch for the game. If you don't wanna see it don't click it and just ignore it. You don't go on CNN and say WTF IS THIS I DON'T LIKE NEWS ABOUT IRAN
Never.
Visit the forums and you'll see the large number of posts begging for info. I stop in there just for the occasional updates and rarely post there anymore.

But pcDEV and JD2020 made posts that give the impression patch 1.6 is out this week, not next. The post you referenced was from Friday 9/11. Check this post from pcdev and then on page 4 is JD saying it'll be late this week instead of mid-week.
