| spemanig said: I feel like it shouldn't be like Neogaf at all. Instead, it should be something like NintendoLife's most recent layout. Clean, simple, modern, and with the focus being on the articles primerily, the sales numbers secondarily, and the forums being relegated to its own separate page and accessable through a tiny tab on the main page. |
(Goes to check Nintendolife) It looks very good but the main page is too big. I like the Neogaf style because it's simple and short (a bit dated maybe but I rather have simplicty over style). Your idea is nice but I wouldn't focus on stories... Most of the gaming news are the same on every site, so in the end you depend on original content from writers. That's not VG Chartz's specialty (even though we have great articles), this site is known because of the sales dat.
I would take the Neogaf template and place the HW and SW sales on the main page, a bunch of important articles titles (3 or 4) on the right with a news section button and a forum section button! No need to scroll to get to the good stuff. But that's my vision for this site.
