I decided to interview my friend Nick on my gaming blog
because compared to my other friends he is much more into technology and video
games. Thus, he would be well versed on this topic to provide opinions in order
to bring more diverse views into this blog.
The first question I asked him was “What is your favorite
video game of all time?”
This was his response: My favorite video game of all time
would have to be super smash bro’s on the N64. I grew up with a lot of my
friends playing the game, so it brings back a lot of good memories. I thought
the chaos of the game made everything more fun and exciting. It brought a lot
of competitiveness and laughter, so I thoroughly enjoyed the game to a high
extent over others. One major thing that this game did compared to others is it
brought a lot of my friends and family closer. I would play it with my cousins
during holiday gatherings or with my friends when we hung out. A bag of chips,
salsa, and a pop along with playing the game with a bunch of people made it
time well spent. I also just loved the fact that you could have more than four
people playing at a time, it allowed everyone to get involved in the same room
which is something that games nowadays are missing.
The second question I asked him was “in your opinion, what
makes up a good gaming blog?”
This was his response: I think that the number one thing you
need to do in order to develop a good gaming blog is you need to find a way to captivate
your audience. One way of doing this would be to stay up to date with new
upcoming games and other technology that could be releasing. It is also
important that you do not completely spoil the game for your readers. I think
you should strive to be concise and straight to the point with your reviews and
information. I get bored whenever I am reading a review and the reviewer
rambles on and on about information that does not really matter. I think it
would also be important to connect with your readers. Be present in the comment
section of your posts and start up conversations with them, it doesn’t even
have to be about games. I also think it would help to throw giveaways to your
fans consisting of products and merchandise. This could help keep people looking
at your blog content and attract visitors by giving away free stuff. You should
try to really personalize your blog in order to make it unique. I think
visitors would be much more attracted to your blog if you really show that you care about them and appreciate them for taking the time to
read your content.
