Too bad it crumbled, Gamecenter and CNET most likely provided descent payment and a bit of extra traffic. Also Macgamefiles was the spawn of this calaboration. I noticed no mention of the Gamecenter Alliance ending at C|Net or Gamecenter or the game center page. Strange... |
Yeah, no more funding for IMG! |

That's not the only thing CNET gave IMG, they also provided funding. It was explained many times in the forums that the ads were necessary because many of our Mac-specific advertisers weren't paying up. Sad as this capitalistic-society is, IMG requires money in order to operate. I'd gladly take PC ads over no ads and no funding. While we'll be fine (IMG is really a labor of love for everyone involved anyway), having to find a new network is a pain in these dried-up dot-com times... Who cares about the ads anyway? You don't like em, you certainly don't have to click on them. |
Yeah, no more PC ads on IMG! |

I'm glad the CNET Game Center Alliance is closing. The only thing that the GCA has done is force IMG to display banner ads for PC's and PC-only products.
I even emailed IMG about this, but they ignored me. |
