Site Update

Written by: Charles

Hey guys, just wanted to touch base with our amazing fans. As you can tell, the new design that we’ve been talking about for the past month is finally here! Keep in mind that it’s still undergoing a beta phase so please, let us know if you encounter any errors.

Now to draw your attention to some things you may not notice, we are using a new video player, as showcased here, which allows you to embed videos, and more importantly, it gives you the power to seek specific sections in the video instead of having to wait for the video to fully play first. We are also starting a weekly newsletter which will help keep you up to date with news during the week, and it will also contain a few goodies so be sure to sign up for it! Our twitter connect is now live, though we are having issues with facebook that may take some time to resolve, you can see these features in the login/register page.

We have also categorized our contests for reference purposes, so be sure to check those out. We had a bunch of giveaways here and there that were not documented…oops. Another neat thing you’ll find in our side bar are the sites like us, we support these sites 100% so please check them out!

Finally, the forums were taken down as we’re moving to a new platform that will be easier to use and administer, we believe the forums are an integral part of a community so we want to do it right.

We did not have a Fancast this week due to the work on the site, also be sure to follow us on twitter, and be part of our facebook community for your chance to win a copy of Little Big Planet GoTY edition!

Please keep in mind that since the site has just been upgraded there are several things that can and probably will go wrong, so please bear with us and continue to be the awesome people that you are!

Charles is the Founder and Editor In Chief of thegamefanatics.com and even though he didn’t grow up with the opportunity to have as many systems as probably a lot of hardcore gamers did, he always had an avid passion for gaming. He currently does most of his gaming on either the ps3 or pc, and gets irked when people try to discredit the pc as a viable gaming console. He does have a life outside of video games; playing the drums and acoustic guitar as well as playing basketball and football are some of his hobbies. He says the only thing he love more than gaming is being around a community of gamers. Email him, find him on twitter, or stalk him on facebook!
