While I don't have any particular problem with Joystiq, it is interesting to see the move away from standard Video Game coverage and into more independent avenues. I think people like Jim Sterling and TotalBiscuit cover the news better than anyone working for any of these larger sites and I'm glad that they are getting more popular while standard sites seem to be getting less popular.

I am sorry, but I cannot agree with you.

While it is the truth that oversupply of gaming website dilluted the quality of journalism considerably, there are still some good journalists that are able to report the news objectively.

I find none of the YouTube personalities that qualify as an objective journalist. They are great if you seek an entirely subjective opinion that you tend to agree with, but are never a source of news themselves (unless they make an effort to make news out of themselves).

I do agree that there is a need for a reduction of gaming websites, there will be nothing good coming out of the abundance of youtubers.
