Gaming News Blogroll

Want to read more blogs on video game news?

Check out these other blogs, bringing you what’s currently trending in gaming. Read about new title releases, mainstream video game reviews, concept development, and watch countless trailers and podcasts brought to you by the professional enthusiasts of gaming journalism.

As an avid reader of video game reviews, I found many awesome games recommended by these blogs that didn’t disappoint. And I’ll bet other gamers are also keeping up with mainstream titles as they are the same ones joining community discussions to share guides, strategies, and what they like/hate about introduced mechanics. 

These are blogs even people who don’t play on PC can potentially enjoy. It’s true I’ve decided to switch to Steam but I still watch some playthroughs of games like Overwatch and the Persona series.

Not all titles will be available on PC so it’s better to cast a wider net when it comes to adding games to your collection. Gaming communities exist outside of the US and you’ll find journalist overseas, covering new titles on sites like Eurogamer. 

I’d suggest that you give them a chance since you never know what they might have in store. Blogs are an excellent platform to share your opinions and discover new games to add to your “wish list” as you prepare for your Christmas shopping binge. 

Or if you’re like me, and you’d much rather sit back and relax while reading the current topics of gaming, then reading blogs is probably your best bet instead of going out to video game stores to buy titles yourself.

Blogs provide the right amount of inspiration and guidance to gamers who want to add titles to their growing collections. Some of them cover gaming news in the US but others like Eurogamer are suited for an overseas English audience who have been buying exported games.

Are you unsure of what titles to buy or have interesting tips and tricks to share with the gaming community?

Then I think you’ll love this top 10 video game news blogroll I put up. I promise that you’ll have a lot of fun watching podcasts and arguing about which VR game is the next best Fortnite clone.

I’m happy to share with you some blogs where video games are expanding into other forms of mass media and people are free to talk about their experiences regarding the games they play.

Giant Bomb

Giant Bomb is one of the biggest video game databases around. It features plenty of mainstream game reviews, podcasts (Bombcast?), “quick look” videos, and new console games on the PS4, Xbox One, or Nintendo Wii U to read about. If you like listening to podcasts you might want to check it out.
