Post by: tomrob on April 30, 2001, 05:12:45 PM: Yeah they started of brightly as a site, but I noticed over the last couple of weeks they have been slowly updating less and less. The past few days they have hardly done anything. R.I.P

p.s Do they have anything to do with Future Publishing and Playstation Power mag?

Post by: ddaryl on April 30, 2001, 05:13:56 PM: Well

Internet advertising money just isn\'t there anymore.

More and more sites will slowly die.

Post by: Lavan on April 30, 2001, 05:25:58 PM: Although I did not particularly like the site, it is a shame to see them go down the toilet. IGN will be next, they are already desperate with their \'IGN Insider\' crap.

Yes, snowball.com is in deep doo doo. It\'s all hitting the fan now lads, like ddaryl said, there\'s no advertising money.

Post by: EThugg on April 30, 2001, 07:15:07 PM: One small problem Lavan.... snowball/ign are totally seperate from DR/Future.
Title: Daily Radar closes!
Post by: EmperorRob on April 30, 2001, 07:17:30 PM: That was probably the best Hardcore site out there. The letters and Q&A were awesome. They even published some of my letters.

That sucks ass. I HATE GETTING LAID OFF (not to be confused with getting laid, which I like).

If DailyRadar goes, who\'s next?

Post by: Lavan on April 30, 2001, 08:16:37 PM: EThugg - oh I know, I was just making a point that DR won\'t be the first gaming site to go down the toilet.
Title: Daily Radar closes!
Post by: inteq on April 30, 2001, 08:31:33 PM: DR was part of Imagine who owns Next Gen, PC Gamer, and PSM. They shut down some magazines earlier this year including The Official Dreamcast Magazine and Total Movie magazine. Imagine has been haveing money problems, the most likely reason for DR being shutdown.

Post by: Kituka on May 01, 2001, 05:58:41 AM: I liked that site, despite the occassionally absurd reviews and the idiots that caused mayhem on the forums (cameron2k1, if you\'re reading this, eat **** you bastard!!!!). I did like their pictures though.
