I would say the biggest thing that killed this forum was EA creating the Battlelog forums (which I think is utterly useless, and just a spam and troll fest).

What was/is the whole story behind TGN and the OT section?

Or even just John Q. Public in general using social media (Twitter/Facebook again) to communicate instead of general or specialized forums. There are now also tons of different IM methods across all kinds of devices. Who needs a forum anymore?
Or things like the rise of theTomb RaiderSteam Community.
Or how games now don't really have "massive" patches that get hyped up days or weeks ahead of time (there are still some instances of this, but it's far less prevalent now) due to things like Steam and Origin where multiple patches can arrive in a day for a game and nobody really bats an eye.
Or the surge of YouTube and Twitch and those newer forms of media replacing the old. We even have devs and publishers streaming their previews, bypassing the need for news sites. Why waste time and effort getting someone out to preview something when we can do it ourselves to thousands upon thousands of people and all it costs us is an hour out of our day.
But nah, it's probably just me.
