    Is there still money in "gaming" sites?

    Doing reviews, selling kids PS2 games etc?
    Back in the day they used to do alright. Is there still money in it?

      Interesting question. I've always wondered what gaming sites like gamespot.com & co pull in?

          Well I had friends that started squaresoft gaming sites and made good commissions from affiliate programs.

              GameSpot, IGN.com Etc etc are all owned by large companies who run a bunch of different sites. GameSpot is owned by CNET, the GameSpot site is actually kind of an after thought. I honestly dont know how much money there is to make in that biz, it costs alot because you have to hire writers, design staff, etc etc..

              My grand plan was to develop a game review / porn site.. All in one..

              It would be like a portal where guys can go for their homepage, would have news, weather, stocks, games, porn.

              All in 1 place.

              Bigger than ebay, i tell you.. ;-)

                              if you're looking for an X-Box name I have PandorasXbox.com

                              for the UBI game LOCK-ON.COM and the .net
                              In November, you can vote for America's next president or its first dictator.

                                  I miss gamecenter.com (was bought by gamespot)

                                  But I like the Rottentomatoes of the gaming industry

                                  http://www.gametab.com/

                                  About the question, I think that the game review market is quite saturated. Unless you come up with a very refreshing and original idea.
