What G4F Is

Hey there everyone!  I don't have any new reviews for you today, but I assure you that we are working very hard to put something new out before the end of the month.  In the meantime, I thought I spend a little bit of time to explain exactly what G4F is really about, and why we are trying to break into the video game journalism market.  Any time we post our blog address on a forum or link an article on Facebook, we worry that people will just look at our posts and think "oh boy, another one of these sites" and immediately move on without clicking through to our page.  In reality, our vision for G4F is very different than what you might expect. 

Anyone can write a video game review, and most sites that are already established do a very good job of offering criticism of games, but we don't think this is enough.  Of course we will write reviews, and we will play popular games, but for the most part we want our audience to become part of the process.  We want all of the people who visit our blog and our upcoming website to make suggestions about new games we should try or old games that we may have missed.  If you find yourself on the fence about buying a game, let us know and we will be glad to give our own opinion about it. 

Keep in mind that G4F is still very small.  There are still just two of us at the moment, and we don't even have a fancy office or unlimited funds to buy games.  It's just two guys who love to play games, and we want to leave our own mark on how this industry works.  We will focus on console games exclusively right now due to our lack of a capable gaming PC, but as we continue to grow expect to see more variety from each of our sites.  For now, we play games in our spare time and go to our regular jobs during the day, but we are always open to game suggestions from all of you. 

In the coming weeks we will be working on getting some videos posted, and we will be adjusting the format of our website as we prepare for the official launch.  For now, here are the titles that we are looking to pick up in the next few weeks for new release reviews.

  • Never Dead
  • Soul Calibur V
  • Kingdoms of Amalur
  • The Darkness
  • UFC Undisputed 3
We will also be looking back at some of the popular games of 2011 as we head into the relatively light new release schedule of spring 2012.  This looks to be a promising year, and we hope you all enjoy the material we are putting out.  If you have any suggestions for current titles sound off in the comment section below.

Keep it realzzzz
