Astonishingly blatant plug

A new site I'm working on has just gone live at www.gamesindustry.biz - I realise that it's probably not going to be of much interest to the casual gamers, but I figured some of the more hardcore gamers might be interested in the occasional insight into the workings of the industry.

It's not feature complete as yet, but please feel free to have a poke about and let me know what you think...

Hi Shinji,

Content is really cool and informative, and I've now bookmarked the site, and will include it on my 'daily-view' list, if it's updated regularly.

Choice of colours is a little bit suspect though...
Reminds me of '70s Whip-Express TV Ads....

Oh, and a quick additional comment -
Looking at some of the pages, i.e. the publishing feature , there is just too much information on the page.. You need to draw the readers eye towards the article you want them to read...

Maybe you could just include the news headings on the RHS, instead of including the first line from each article.. and in some way, try to centre the main article in the page, instead of having it slightly off-centred on the left...

My 2c... I'm a website reader, as opposed to a designer, so what do I know?!

I'm a writer, not a designer. But I do get to poke my webchimps with a pointy stick over stuff like this.

Thanks for your comments - the right hand side bar is a bit messed up, I reckon, so I think I'll try and get one of the guys to have a look at improving that and helping the readability.

Glad you seem to like the site
