GameDB #36

1) Community allowed to post their thoughts on AAA industry or gaming in general 2) Emphasis on AAA/gaming-related news on the front page 3) Instead of traditional category/platform topmost menus, proposing something a little different, these tabs:

  1. AAAs
  2. Classics (AAA games made before 2003? to distinguish them from indies)
  3. Indies
  4. Apps (iOS/Android/Metro)
  5. Console (AAAs and indies available on console platforms)
  6. Web (browser-based, flash, platform-agnostic web games)

plus Browse Games button (guiding members to the games browsing page). So GameDB split into 6 main divisions encased in an ultra minimalistic design, without any focus on community/forum pages whatsoever?

One of the biggest problems of GameDB, it would probably reuse/duplicate content of other DB sites and thus be Google-unfriendly. Also, the site itself would not really be innovative in any particular way so it would be hard for it to stand out when considering all that massive amount of gaming websites out there.
