I tried each of your sample code lines and I just get enumeration yield no results. The site isn't down or anything.

Yes, it looks like the Metacritic's site has changed therefore breaking the scraping. Will try and look into this weekend (or if you've got a fix already, happy to accept a PR).

Not going to be as straightforward as I hoped, the structure has changed a fair bit. It even looks like "Features" have disappeared completely.

Sorry about that. I guess that's the way these things go. It's a shame they don't have a public API.

It is a shame. I've just discovered it's against Metacritic's Terms of Use to scrape their site so I've decided to sunset FluentMetacritic and will not be fixing any issues. Sorry.
