Sorry for a triple post ;0

...But Quantcast also states that we are ranked 6,186, while NeoGaf is ranked 17,444

So, the latest screenshots and vids have disappeared. The main page loads faster now though :)

The news, the numbers and the forums. That why I visit VGChartz.

I visit vgchartz to see if there are so good interesting threads. I visit vgchartz to chat with some of the users. I also visit vgchartz to make threads about the latest news in gaming or if I want to make a Real Talk thread for the week.

I come here for the community, a great mix of people and actually help me. (sometimes) The sales are also interesting to look at.

I just wish that the site was smaller and less cluttered because I have a small monitor and I have to sideways scroll all the time. :/

Also ads could get quite annoying.

If the site wants to easily expand then it needs to start tracking retail pc sales. The pc fans on the site are by far the smallest group and by tracking the sales it would attract more pc gamers to this site.

Instead of focusing on expanding into non-sales related areas, you should be looking to expand the sales tracking. Track more markets etc. If that requires more people to be part of the sales tracking back end then so be it.

Furthermore I'd suggest adding as many (useful) analytical tools as possible, any increase in the flexiability with the data would be welcome. I have no ideas what these tools would be, its just a though.

Its good to hear that pc sales will be added is due course.

I understand your point about increasing accuracy which is unfortunate as being free and readily available is what makes this site so great. I was thinking more in terms of tracking more markets visibly, and showing the sales instead of just putting them in under "other Europe" etc. Increased clarity would lead to increased credibility even it the accuracy of the tracking is the same.

I think the biggest problem is irregular sales updates. I think if hardware and software numbers were released on a more steady basis like they used to be it would keep people interested. The system you have now that leaves us in the blue about number updates and some times doesn't even get updated until the week after.

For your review section you should try to make a more comprehensive format. The reviews definitely need something akin to IGN's closing comment section and a tally of different scores for the general main parts of interest for video games. A video review for major titles would also be helpful.

Finaly the advertising used on this site needs to be integrated much better. My browser slows down and crashes far more on this site than any other. You need to tone down the sites flashiness and focus on making it more streamlined in order for us users to get to the information we want with as little hassle as possible. If you could make this website faster and more reliable you will find more people browsing through the different functionalities of your website.

Thank you! I'm quite happy with this, I was still not sure whether you were considering completely separating the parts of the site from VGC, but I see that that's not the case.

As someone else said, it's important to emphazise what is unique to VGC, the sales, the prediction league, etc.

If it's possible, maybe expand on the editorials n'stuff? Bring back roundtables, maybe invite some members in.

And for naming, for the database, I'd maybe take a leaf out of the IMDB book and call it VGDB or something. And might I suggest we take another feature from IMDB, and maybe include info like voice actors in the DB?
