My problem is I just don't have the time to devote to becoming intimate with any games (without forfeiting my real life). Kind of funny because I was addicted to video games when I was growing up, but I've been completely out of it for years. So I guess this is a difficult nut to crack for someone like me with minimal exposure. I'll have to come up with something that doesn't require a lot from me personally. Nothing comes to mind immediately, so I'll have to leave it on simmer. Hopefully an idea will strike at some point.

I ran a PC game site and forum a few years ago; it was lots of work & the revenue was insignificant. One high value area is third party marketplaces for online game items & gold. Jumping on new online games early & achieving top SE placement could be one strategy to get these ad dollars. Trying to build sites and communities around already established games is very tough.

Not sure what your thoughts on this are, but wondering what direction you would go as web publisher in making a play on this. Forums? fansites? straight up affiliate sites? What kind of avenues do you see the most promise in? Maybe you're not comfortable talking these kinds of details publicly, but this is my unabashed attempt to pick your brain.
