title: Request a GET failed in Node
body: <p>I am requesting a <code>GET</code> to a 3rd party api service from my <code>node</code> back-end.<br>
  I am getting a response of <code>403 forbidden</code>:</p>
  
  <pre><code>request("http://www.giantbomb.com/api/search/?api_key=my_api_key&amp;field_list=name,image,id&amp;format=json&amp;limit=1&amp;query=street%20fighter%203&amp;resources=game",(err,res,body) =&gt; {
      console.log(body);
  })
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Querying the same request in my browser return the expected results.<br>
  Any idea why this can happen?</p>
  
  <p>EDIT:</p>
  
  <p>Logging the response body, I receive the following page (without the JS):</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;h1&gt;Wordpress RSS Reader, Anonymous Bot or Scraper Blocked&lt;/h1&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;
      Sorry we do not allow WordPress plugins to scrape our site. They tend to be used maliciously to steal our content. We do not allow scraping of any kind.
      You can load our RSS feeds using any other reader but you may not download our content.

  &lt;p&gt;
      Or you're running a bot that does not provide a unique user agent.
      Please provide a UNIQUE user agent that describes you. Do not use a default user agent like "PHP", "Java", "Ruby", "wget", "curl" etc.
      You MUST provide a UNIQUE user agent. ...and for God's sake don't impersonate another bot like Google Bot that will for sure
      get you permanently banned.
  &lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;
      Or.... maybe you're running an LG Podcast player written by a 10 year old. Either way, Please stop doing that.
  &lt;/p&gt;
