Eine neue? Seite rund um News/Reviews etc. zu Videospielen. Unter anderem mit einem "Game Popularity Meter". Scheint ein IGN Ableger zu sein.

What is GameStats?
If this is your first time to this site, let us welcome you to what we hope will become your new daily source of gaming information. Instead of adding another voice to an already crowded market of game sites and magazines, GameStats is focused squarely on providing the most objective view on games, both released and unreleased. To do this, GameStats assembles articles from around the web, allows gamers to weigh in with their opinions, and lets you access daily popularity statistics for thousands of games.

The Database
GameStats uses the web's most detailed game database, courtesy of gaming and entertainment network IGN.com. That means information and media for more than 22,000 games is right at your fingertips, including game and company data, release dates, cheats, walkthroughs, screenshots, movies, and more. If you find a game that's not listed, submit it and we'll add it as soon as we can.

The Gauge
The Popularity Gauge is one of our key features. Every game catalogued on GameStats comes with its own set of statistics, expressed in what we call GPM (Game Popularity Metric). This number shows you how popular a specific title is at this point in time. While quality has a big effect on the staying power of a game, GPMs are not representative of a game's quality -- they express buzz, desire to play the game, awareness, and post-release activity. How is this done? Instead of taking our website's traffic data as the be-all-end-all metric to determine popularity, GameStats uses data gathered from IGN.com's more than 12 million monthly visitors and compiles wishlist and collection list activity, email requests, message board posts, article, faqs, and cheat code pageviews into a number between 0 and 100, then displays everything in form of an easy to read gauge. You can find this gauge on every game summary page. Simply use the search engine, the top game navigation, or the front page links to find the games you're looking for.

Take a look at the sample gauge above. Underneath the graphical gauge, you will find the GPM rating in numerical form along with a trend arrow. This arrow shows whether a game is gaining in popularity or losing it. The color of the number changes from red (80 or above) to blue (20 or below) highlighting what games are hot and cold.

You can also see the game's relative position within the entire database of titles (overall GPM ranking) as well as its position within the platform's lineup.

Finally, the checkbox at the bottom of the gauge element allows you to take advantage of the GameStats on-demand newsletter, powered by IGN. Check off a game and we will send you the updates for that title by email whenever something new gets added. That way, you'll always be able to read the latest reviews and previews for the games you really care about. Don't want to get emails anymore? Just uncheck the box.

Du meintest wohl Gamerankings-Ableger, oder?

Falsch.

IGN-Ableger: weil wohl Mitwirkung von IGN, evtl. sogar eine Unternehmung von IGN.

Gamerankings-Derivat, wäre ein passenderer Begriff, da es die Inhalte dessen aufgreift.

Yup. Ergänzt um ein paar Extras. Ich bin mir allerdings noch nicht so ganz sicher ob ich die Seite in meine Bookmarks nehme.
 
Ich glaub das kann man sich sparen, bis auf die sog. "Stats" wird man eh zu IGN umgeleitet. Und das Halo 2 heute most wanted ist, wär ich auch nicht gekommen... :rolleyes:
