In 1998, the network consolidated the individual sites as system "channels" under the IGN brand. Next-Generation and Ultra Game Players Online were not part of this consolidation; UGPO dissolved with the cancellation of the magazine, and Next-Generation was put "on hold" when Imagine decided to concentrate on launching the short-lived Daily Radar brand. As of June 2005, IGN claimed 24 million unique visitors a month, with 4.8 million registered users through all departments of the site. IGN is ranked among the top 200 most-visited websites according to Alexa.[1] In September 2005, IGN was acquired by Rupert Murdoch's multi-media business empire, News Corporation. IGN celebrated their tenth year on the 12 January, 2008.[2]" |
This is one of those instances when Wikipedia IS wrong. ign64 is just like all their sites now, where it is just directly related to 64 gaming only. Just like ps3.ign.com, 360.ign.com, wii.ign.com and so on so forth. That's when they started doing it to seperate all the consoles from each other. I'm still waiting for somebody to know the original name of IGN.com, and I'm actually sorta disapointed, this is supposed to be a gaming site afterall.
The Halo francise is the most overrated bland game to ever hit the console market. It provides a bad name to all FPS that even showed effort at creating an original entertaining plot.
I probably have more ps3 games than you :/
