ReedPop seeks buyer for Eurogamer, GI, VG247, Rock Paper Shotgun and more

ReedPop is 'investigating the potential sale' of its Gamer Network business. The UK-based operation includes GamesIndus…

This is potentially terrible news. I love Eurogamer and RPS, if they get sold to a more greedy network like Fandom the quality of content there will go downhill fast.

    I wish we lived in a universe, where these platforms can exist on their own, without falling into the trap of needing financial support from literal satan, in companies like Fandom

      If these were all getting financial support from a large company, why did they all switch on more ads, newsletters, anti-adblockers, and subscription prompts at basically the same time? Must’ve been only crumbs, I think they will move on and be better off. A few less click-bait titles in the aggregators are all that is lost I suppose.

      The games “news” coverage system is a-changin’ again, the more things change, the more they stay the same.
