Sub-Site Suggestion

[BrooklynKnight]

Hey Morrus I was inspired to suggest this by http://www.enworld.org/scifi/
that.

The new sci-fi segment.

Now what am I suggesting?

Enworld is the biggest pen and paper rpg gaming site on the net.
Now we cover sci-fi news as well but our focus is gaming.

Perhaps we, (er you), can also expand into PC/Console gaming. Its a cross platform thing. As gamers many of us participate in both.

As to how to go about this...well. Id think it would be a seprate sub page just like sci-fi, but for the actual gathering of gaming news (of that nature) we need someone really engrained in the gaming world.

For this I recommend the guys from Penny Arcade. They are Gamers and Pen and Paper gamers too from what I understand.

They get ALL the console gaming news and i'm sure they'd be happy to work with the biggest pen and paper gaming site on the net to help forward that news.

Please Art, one site at a time

lol, well when the sci-fi segment is done.

 

[talinthas]

god, dude, arent there enough pc gamer sites out there?

 

[BrooklynKnight]

whats that have to do with it?
Arent there millions of sci-fi news sites? Look at all the ones linked on the sci-fi page.

Thats not the point.

Its a natrual extension of gaming news. More so then sci-fi news. And that section is great.

I don't think ENWorld should concern itself with covering PC Games, console games, etc. news. This is about D&D/d20, pen-and-paper rpg, etc. Yes, I know there are a few D&D licensed CRPGs out there, but we have a forum to discuss those, no need to start covering them in the news.


(D&D 3e feels enough like a video game itself...we don't need to cover the news for them as well.)

then why cover sci-fi news?
whats with all the conserverationalism or whatever.
Isint the point to grow and expand?

Nobody is twisting your leg to read the sci-fi news, nobody would twist your leg to read the console news.

Nobody is asking you to scour for news to post.

Its not something we need, no, not at all. But its a logical progression if you're expanding the site from its gaming roots. We have Pen and Paper Gaming, Sci-Fi News (which includes TV shows, Comics, and Movies. Basically its Fantasy/Sci-fi Media news.) so why not console/pc gaming?

so why not console/pc gaming?

Damn video games these days, they rot your mind! Not like the old days, when they actually improved your health.

In my day, we had to walk 2 miles uphill through 3 feet of snow to the roller rink just to play Pong, and we liked it! None of this sitting on couches, eating chips and drinking soda while playing a game. We had rollerskates on and had to rollerskate to Abba in order to play the game. And we waited in line to do it.
