Is Game blogging more popular than traditional news websites?

So, where do you go for your gaming news? Is it a blog, or a news site in general? With the up and coming trend of blogging, and the ease of being able to do so without any real technological knowledge at all, it's becoming something that is a part of our everyday lives. You have that, then you also have your regular news site, that lists the titles of the latest posts, reviews, previews, etc., and you have to click the actual link to see the body of the news. But what is more popular, blogging or news sites? I personally blogging is going to become a lot bigger, and it's huge already, but there's limitations, a lot more than with standard website and some good old fashion coding. Plus, there are tons of blogs out there, and people can pretty much post what ever they want, whether it's true or not. Right now I think that blogs are more popular with gaming just because of it's ease of use, and it's ability to show you the news in a "hopefully" easy place to see and read it. Although regular news sites can add more interactivity, just look at Destructoid, there's tons of options besides "just" news, and there's a whole community behind it. So what do you guys think is more popular and why?

Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.

To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.

The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.

Once they re-evaluate exclusive all will be fine….

Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.

15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.

These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
