New vs Old Games Journalism


Old Games Journalism:



This form of journalism is the type I expected to find regarding games, this method focuses and analyses the separate parts that form the video game such as graphics, gameplay, interface and control. This would be seen as a more factual style article. You would normally see this type of article written as a 'pro's and con's list' or in paragraphs of text in an overview.





New Games Journalism:



This would be best described as an article written by the writer/player responding to the thing they have experienced in the game world including interacting with other players online. this primarily shows the personal opinion of the game and can often be heavily biased depending on the  players preference/ability to enjoy that genre of game this sort of journalism can often be found on areas of youtube.
