Thanks for extending the invitation to us. We recieved no such special treatment from IGN. I created an account over there a few days ago, but I think their site is just aweful. Considering how much presence they have in the gaming community, their blog, a community of real people, is tucked away in the dark recesses of their site away from their glorious ads, as if ashamed. Honestly, IGN looks like giant billboard!
What I appreciated about 1up, is that they featured their community of bloggers on the front pages as equals to their writers. I can't think of any othe site that does this, except maybe here.
The follow feature was a tremendous addition. I found and followed everyone painlessly and easily. I appreciate that.
