Topic: Ideas for the site.

@KidBoruto There is no link as such, as it is just a section on the homepage:

@JohnnyShoulder I see it now on the site, thanks for the heads up!

I wonder why they decided to do that instead of an article people can comment on?

@KidBoruto That tab on the site has always been there, the article wasn't replaced by it or anything. I honestly don't know what happened to it, though!

@KidBoruto No worries, that is my good deed done for the day lol.

@LiamCroft I tried asking @get2sammyb earlier but he never responded, must be really busy.

@KidBoruto Sorry, I missed the question. What did you want to know again?

I wanted to know what happened to the old guide article that showed all of the upcoming gaming showcases/events. Was it retired in favor of the smaller section that shows on the homepage?

I couldn't find said article anymore, and it was very useful to me in keeping track of everything.

@KidBoruto To be 100% honest with you, I don't even remember that guide. But yes, you'll find all that information on the homepage now!

"All Upcoming PS5, PS4 Events, Live Streams, and Press Conferences"

I was referring to this! Sadly the link inside the tweet doesn't work anymore, just takes you to the Guides page.

@KidBoruto That's so weird, I can't even find this article in the database anymore. Hm, I'll have to ask the others next week if they can remember what we did with this.

@get2sammyb Why do you write about PS news exclusively? If you cover PC, Xbox and Nintendo you will attract a lot more people.

@Bismarck I don't know if I'm in the minority or not here but one of the main reasons Push Square is my primary gaming news site is because it's fully dedicated to the platform I do my gaming on.
Also, if you look at Nintendo Life and Pure XBOX, you'll probably notice that they're all part of the same network.

@Voltan PushSquare can make those other websites go the way of the dodo. Total world domination.

@Bismarck Why don’t Pizza Hut sell flugelhorns?

@nessisonett You know damn well why

@Bismarck All of us are Sony Ponies here , take it or leave it .

@nessisonett Don't give them any ideas.

@Bismarck Single format sites are great. While there are disadvantages, I find it gives us the freedom to discuss/cover things that would just feel out of place on a multiformat site.

People do seem to like it as the network is doing great!

Whether you choose a Single Platform or Multi-platform based website, each comes with its pros and cons. A dedicated single platform site will often bring you news, reviews etc that multi-platform sites may not cover or will get lost in the sea of information.

A lot of multi-platform sites do exist - IGN is perhaps one of the biggest known multi-platform sites - but you may not easily find a review or news about some small 'indie' game because its not going to get the 'clicks' that a big AAA game coming in a year or more generates.

Whatever decisions are made, you aren't going to escape the Toxic Fanboys - whether that's just the audience or even the articles that flame these. That's just the nature of the industry it seems. The difference is that a multi-platform site tends to bring more conflict because of opposing fanboys where as single platform sites tend to be much more heavily bias in both Journalistic and audience so can be much more 'free' to attack their competitors without much (if any) retaliation.

Point is - both have pros and cons and I think it's great that both exist. As a 'multi-platform' gamer, I still regularly visit both single platform & Multi-platform based gaming sites. In fact, both PushSquare and PureXbox are the 2 main sites I check multiple times a day for 'news' as its collected from the internet and put into a convenient place to check for the main Platforms I use. On IGN for example, their news is filled with TV/Movie news, Nintendo news, PC only news etc etc so not the easiest to find 'specific' news to my interests.

I don't think (or want) PushSquare (or PureXbox, NintendoLife etc) to disappear or 'merge' into one multi-platform site so that single platform users can easily find all the news, reviews etc specific to their platform of choice.

The scrolling article ad thing at the top of the homepage is broken on mobile. It expands off the side causing horizontal scrolling. It doesn't happen immediately, like 5 or 10 seconds after the page finishes loading.
