I had an idea. What if we had a subforum dedicated to headlines? I like to know what's happening, but I don't want to dig into the recent pages of all these megathreads to see what people are reacting to.

You mean like a Kotaku/IGN/Gamespot subforum basically yea?

No. What? IGN and Gamespot don't even have news forums, they just have lovely comment sections. I don't think Kotaku even has a forum.

I think the idea is you want game headline discussion without the actual game headline site comments?

Any gaming news website is going to be terrible from start to finish. The articles being posted aren't actual news, they're just clickbait. Then the comments section is just morons posting memes and trolling each other.

A headline subforum would naturally focus on whatever people found interesting. For example, I imagine we'd have a thread like, "Oh poo poo, Crytek is on fire", and while new headlines about that rolled in, people would be talking about the gradual decline of Crytek over the years and how terrible GFace is.

Actually, with Gamescom next week, it might be good timing to get something like this started.

because they need a forum to themselves, you see :eng101:

Because right now I'm getting my headlines from neogaf and r/gaming and I know this forum could do it better.
