The New Games Journalism

aanand writes "Superstar UK games journalist Kieron Gillen (his blog seems to be down at the time of writing) has written a fascinating editorial/essay on what he calls The New Games Journalism, in which he discusses the future of printed and electronic games writing, and offers some good insights into where the next generation of writers might be headed."

Wow, the fastest /.ing ever, just submitting the story was enough to take the site down.

More advertisments with hip dressed posers holding there new console and looking all edgy with there semi-emo coolness just dripping from the photo...

more titties and celebrities who got paid more than what you make in a year for giving a little blurb about some game that "Omg I think its like totally cool"

More sidetalking taco goodness.

More articles that just make gamers look like morons who will snap up whatever POS they are hocking just because some guy name "Extreme Tony" who is as hip and cool as the guy in ad for a sidetalking taco says we should buy it.

More bullshit in general.
