Hey guys,
As a few of you may know, I'm involved with the running of the Telegraph's new video game site. We're aiming to become the leading non-specialist video games site by getting in before a lot of the competition and finally get video games the mainstream coverage they deserve. It's still very much a work in progress and the stuff that goes up may be a little piecemeal at first while we try and convince management to give us some darn money to run the thing properly!
I'd really like all you guys visit the site and keep an eye on it, so I thought a thread in there would be a good way to do it without intruding on any GGC stuff. Unless of course the article is of particular interest with scope for debate (I'm hoping to have something like that at the beginning of the week actually), or can pop any previews etc. into the game's 'official' thread. I don't want to come across as too much of a 'pimper' but at the same time as a long time member of this community (without you lot and particularly DPAD Dave and the marvellous D+PAD magazine I wouldn't be writing at all) it means a lot to me for you guys to read it! Also, your feedback will be invaluable to get a site out to the masses that people want to read. So please leave any comments, suggestions or even requests and it will all be gratefully received.
As I say it's a little 'bits and pieces' at the moment as there are only a couple of us working on it part-time but hopefully it will take off and be updated regularly. Right now we have a Fallout 3 and a LEGO Batman preview which are of particular interest, plus a few comment pieces and articles. As I say I'll try to keep this thread updated with anything of interest, but if you guys don't mind I will drop the odd piece into official threads if I genuinely believe them to be worthy of it. I hope many of them are!
So do check it out and leave me any feedback here. Cheers guys!

PS. I also have my own blog on the technology section where I'll be regularly gassing off about various bits and bobs. There's even a tribute to GR up there right now, plus a lament at the death of my latest 360.
