New Game Network (commonly referred to as NGN) is a Canadian-based website that covers news, articles, previews, reviews and blogs about videogames. New Game Network has offices in Canada, USA, Australia and UK. The website was founded in January 2009, and contains over 200 articles and features, with over 1,500 news pieces. Primary focus is on the PC, Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 platform coverage.

History

Notability

As of August 2010, New Game Network's database has expanded substatially since the website's origination. Approximately, there are:

Over 290 original articles
Over 3,000 screenshots
Over 1,500 news pieces
650+ games in the database

After upgrading to a new content management system, the website went through a traffic resurgence. Beginning in late 2009, traffic to the website began steadily rising, ultimately reaching up to 500 unique visitors per day. In 2010, a new marketing campaign helped pushed the website to over 2,000 unique visitors per day, rising to the top 100,000 websites on Alexa[4].

Review Scoring

New Game Network rates titles based on a free-form system that includes category scores and a final score out of 100. The categories scored include Presentation, Gameplay, Single Player, Multiplayer, and Performance. The overall rating is determined based on category scores, but not as a mathematical average. There is also a tiered system for the overall score that gives readers an overall impression of the game based on the number.

The website’s review scores are currently tracked at GameStats[1] and N4G[2]. The site is also referenced by game publishers such as Frozenbyte[3].
