| GamechaserBE said: Well something people should not forget about Gametrailers is that users could upload their own videos, you had AVGN who had a contract with them to make two videos a month but you have now 20 or more succesfull youtubers who started to upload their own videos on gametrailers and became popular think for example Nostalgic Critic. |
Like I said it was like youtube but dedicated to gaming. They did a lot of great things, and they had an editorial team, so it wasn't like youtube where the good content is lost in all the crappy stuffs.
But ultimately youtube won because it isn't dedicated to anything, and it just relies on everybody else to promote the videos and the website. Now people just use Youtube. And I know that because I used to go to gametrailers EVERY DAY. But then I just stopped.
The only way they could have saved gametrailers was by stopping to host the videos themselves.
