The best videogames website




English Review:

As a businesswoman who doesn’t have much time to chill out and enjoy some relaxing moments thanks to the incessant necessity to work hard, I always do my best in order to save a few hours every week to dedicate to one of my biggest passions: videogames!



In fact, women may not be so deeply related and connected to videogames but the truth is that I and my friends have been playing these videogames ever since the Mega Drive came out many years ago! Keeping this in mind, I can almost say that I saw the videogames industry growing out of nowhere as well as all the concepts, magazines, websites, etc around videogames, each one of them playing an equally important but different role in the development of the videogames industry.

Personally, with so many years of female videogame experience, I must emphasis that Playstation has really revolutionized the industry with outstanding visuals that have really left a mark in the last decade. Moreover, many magazines such as the official Playstation magazine started to inform players about the upcoming games with a whole new level of detail, making sure that we started to live videogames with much more intensity and passion!

In what relates to websites, I still remember when GameSpot first appeared on the Internet and how it used to be a great place for gamers to chill out and share videogame experiences, advice, tips and other important interaction that proved to be benefic for the videogames industry. Still, as my daughter also loves videogames and we are planning to move to Spain for the next 5-6 years because of my expanding business, I did some research around the Internet looking for GameSpot alternatives in the Spanish language so that she could both be having fun on the website discovering new games and learning the essential Spanish language so that she could communicate with their school colleagues. Fortunately, I came across trucoteca.com which is a website that has really surprised me with its user-friendly interface and overall interesting theme of the website that really made me remember how websites videogames websites should all be! Plus, users are given the chance to use a very efficient search engine that immediately shows you the results that you have been looking for, allowing you to get important tips for that particular game, watching some videos, reading reviews, collecting cheats and other important advice, etc.

As a matter of fact, I would say that the design of the website is also extremely well conceptualized as it brings us back memories from games that we used to play in the past with the well chosen colors that add some intensity and passion to all the pages that we browse around the site. Still, I would personally recommend that the old-fashioned buttons on top of the page allowing us to select “PC”, “PS3”, etc should be replaced with more modern ones so that the website can keep up with a more futuristic view, which I would consider to be the current theme of the website. Moreover, I would also recommend the webmasters to give more emphasis to the extremely addicting free games on the main page so that people can be aware of these amazingly interesting free games that many of us have never heard about.

In what relates to the content of the website itself, I would simply say that everything is well organized with different sections with reviews, tricks and all the other important things that any gamer would expect to get in a videogames website. Furthermore, I would personally say that some of the reviews and guides are so well written and explained that it is a good example for many other International and more reputable websites to follow, which means that this website is getting 7 million visitors every month but has far enough quality to get over 50 million visitors every month within the next year or even sooner as the content of the website simply couldn’t be better!


Spanish Review:

Como mujer de negocios que no tiene mucho tiempo para relajarse y disfrutar de unos momentos de relax gracias a la incesante necesidad de trabajar duro, yo siempre lo mejor de mí para salvar a un par de horas cada semana para dedicarlo a uno de mis grandes pasiones: videojuegos.



De hecho, las mujeres no pueden estar tan profundamente relacionados y conectados con los videojuegos, pero la verdad es que yo y mis amigos han estado jugando estos videojuegos desde la Mega Drive salió hace muchos años. Teniendo esto en cuenta, casi puedo decir que vi la industria de los videojuegos cada vez mayor de la nada, así como todos los conceptos, revistas, sitios web de videojuegos, etc alrededor, cada uno de ellos desempeñan una función igualmente importante pero diferente en el desarrollo de la industria de los videojuegos.
Personalmente, con tantos años de experiencia de videojuegos femeninos, debo Playstation énfasis que realmente ha revolucionado la industria con imágenes excepcionales que realmente han dejado huella en la última década. Además, muchas revistas como la revista oficial de PlayStation empezado a informar a los jugadores sobre los próximos juegos con un nuevo nivel de detalle, asegurándose de que empezamos a vivir los videojuegos con mucha más intensidad y pasión.


En lo que se refiere a sitios web, todavía recuerdo cuando GameSpot apareció por primera vez en Internet y la forma en que solía ser un gran lugar para los jugadores para relajarse y compartir las experiencias de los videojuegos, consejos, sugerencias y otras interacciones importantes que resultaron benéficos para los videojuegos de la industria. Sin embargo, como mi hija también le encanta los videojuegos y estamos planeando mudarse a España para los próximos 5-6 años a causa de mi negocio en expansión, hice algunas investigaciones en torno a Internet en busca de alternativas de GameSpot en el idioma español para que pudiera ser ambos divertirse en el sitio web de descubrir nuevos juegos y aprendizaje de la lengua española esencial para que pudiera comunicarse con sus colegas de la escuela.

Afortunadamente, me encontré con trucoteca.com que es un sitio web que contiene realmente me sorprendió con su interfaz de uso fácil y el tema de interés general del sitio web que realmente me hizo recordar como todos los sitios web de videojuegos debe ser! Además, los usuarios tienen la oportunidad de usar un motor de búsqueda muy eficiente, que inmediatamente le muestra los resultados que usted ha estado buscando, lo que le permite obtener consejos importantes para ese juego en particular, ver algunos videos, leer comentarios, recolección de trampas y otras importantes asesoramiento, etc
Como cuestión de hecho, yo diría que el diseño de la página web también está muy bien conceptualizado como nos trae recuerdos de los juegos que jugábamos en el pasado con los colores bien elegidos que agregar algo en intensidad y pasión a todos los páginas que navegar alrededor del sitio. Sin embargo, yo personalmente recomiendo que los botones de la antigua en la parte superior de la página que nos permite seleccionar "PC", "PS3", etc deben ser sustituidos por otros más modernos para que el sitio puede mantenerse con una visión más futurista, que yo considero el tema actual de la web. Por otra parte, también quiero recomendar a los webmasters para dar más énfasis a los extremadamente adictivos juegos gratis en la página principal para que las personas sean conscientes de la existencia de estos juegos increíblemente interesantes que muchos de nosotros nunca han oído hablar.


En lo que se refiere al contenido de la propia página web, me limitaré a decir que todo está bien organizado, con diferentes secciones con comentarios, trucos y todas las otras cosas importantes que cualquier jugador se esperan obtener en un sitio web de videojuegos. Además, yo personalmente diría que algunos de los exámenes y las guías son tan bien escrito y explicó que es un buen ejemplo para otras organizaciones internacionales y muchos más sitios web de confianza para seguir, lo que significa que este sitio web está recibiendo 7 millones de visitantes cada mes, pero ha de calidad lo suficientemente lejos para conseguir más de 50 millones de visitantes cada mes en el próximo año o incluso antes que el contenido de la página web, simplemente no podía ser mejor!

Airlines showing better results in July


Just as you know, the current financial crisis is menacing many companies and airlines are probably some of the most menaced ones. Keeping this in mind, it would be normal to expect that the quality of their work would increase during this difficult period and that is exactly what is happening as you can confirm by reading the msnbc.com article just below:

"

MINNEAPOLIS - Airline passengers got to their destination on time a little more often in July.

The Transportation Department said on Tuesday that 77.6 percent of airline flights arrived on time, up from 75.7 percent during the same month last year. July's showing was also an improvement over the 76.1 percent on-time rate in June.

Airlines have generally been flying less because of the recession, and that seems to be helping them get their remaining flights to their destinations on time.

Among the largest carriers, Southwest Airlines flights were on-schedule 80.7 percent of the time, followed by US Airways at 80.6 percent and United Airlines at 79.6 percent. United's ranking was a big jump from June's on-time performance of 72.6 percent, among the worst of the big carriers.

American Airlines was last-place among major carriers, with 72.2 percent of its flights arriving on time. Delta Air Lines was a little better at 75.5 percent, and its subsidiary Northwest Airlines came in at 76.4 percent.Airlines said the biggest cause of delays was the late arrival of the airplane to be used on the delayed flight. Other big causes included delays from airport operations and heavy traffic, as well as delays the airline could control, such as maintenance or crew. Weather was cited as a factor in less than 1 percent of all flights.

Nineteen Airlines report monthly on-time data and causes of delays to the Department of Transportation. The delays are labeled under categories such as "Extreme Weather" and "National Aviation System Delay" that were created by the airlines, industry groups, travel agents and government officials.

A flight is considered on-time if it arrives within 15 minutes of the schedule shown in the carriers' reservation systems. Canceled and diverted flights are counted as late.

Among all 19 carriers, Hawaiian Airlines topped the list, with 93.6 percent of its flights arriving on-time. Comair, a regional subsidiary of Delta, was last at 63.6 percent.

The airlines lost less luggage in July, too. The rate of lost bags dropped to 3.98 per 1,000 passengers in July, down from 4.87 in July 2008. Baggage fees became more widespread during that year, causing many travelers to cut back on the amount of luggage they haul to the airport. That has helped airlines do a better job with the remaining bags. The total number of baggage reports fell 21.4 percent to 215,276, even though the number of passengers fell only 3.8 percent.

AirTran Airways had the best performance, with 1.78 mishandled bags for every 1,000 passengers. American Eagle, the regional carrier owned by American Airlines parent AMR Corp., was in last place with 7.9 mishandled bags per 1,000 passengers.

Among the biggest carriers, US Airways had the best performance with 2.75 lost bags per 1,000 passengers, while American was at the bottom with 4.73.
