Not to get your hopes up but it's just a mock design. It's unlikely that anything from a design perspective will change greatly on VGC any time soon.

The site needs both a visual overhaul and enhanced features to modernise it. The green needs to go, along with the bright white background . We lost gamreview and our database a little over two years ago I believe. Possibly around three. That was a huge change! People lost their minds! Before that was another change...guess what...they lost their minds! IGN made a change about a year ago. Is garbage now and have not gone back since. That used to be my secondary review site, but the change destroyed it. Always be careful when changing too much.

I'm not talking about losing features. The site hasn't changed in four years, and we've actually lost features with the site design staying the same. Everyone freaks out when changes happen, but after the dust settles , it is easier to gauge how the change has gone down. If you were to ask a sample of VGC users which version was their favourite , i'm pretty sure it's not this one ( No it's not just nostalgia ). Overall, layout, usability , visual appeal etc taken into account VGC prior to the 2011 version was the best. 2011 version SPLIT the whole site completely . 2011 was the worst change , thus improvements should be made.

You really are an awful tease Tachi. But that looks pretty awesome, shame nothing will come of it...

Machina said: Nah, not beyond the work Truck's already doing (which doesn't encompass a full redesign, although there will be small changes to the front page at some point). The new logo was created and sent to me by Tachikoma when she joined the writing staff, and since it's a massive improvement on what we were using before I decided to use it on our social media accounts.

So only after I leave the team you decide to heed my suggestion to bring on a female writer and a Japan based writer in one swoop?
