Are there any reputable independent gaming sites left?
Are there any reputable independent gaming sites left?
I'm looking for sites not owned by Fandom, Ziff Davis, Tencent, etc., who still cover news and reviews.
I stuck with Giantbomb for years, even after Red Ventures acquired it, but, like others, drifted away from the site when its core members left/got fired.
I followed Easy Allies for awhile, but after Bowman moved on, it wasn't the same.
Anyone have any recommendations?
You're viewing a single thread.
I mostly just follow the nextlander crew and Jeff Gerstmann. They aren't much more than podcasts, there's little to no written work produced, and they don't really consider themselves gaming journalists, but that's pretty much what we're left with.
"Influencers" and corporate cash have largely killed games journalism.
Following this up with Remap Radio, the folks who were recently fired from Vice. They are Nextlander-adjacent.
EDIT: just saw @bogdugg recommended them a little further down
Oh damn yeah! The remap folks are FANTASTIC!
