PC Gamer is a website in the form of a mainstream blog that is associated with the gaming magazine. The site carries news and reviews of the latest consumer games and was launched in June 2010. The magazine delivers hard-hitting reviews, winning game strategies, explanations for complex games technology, and news about what’s next in this rapidly changing arena. All staff at the magazine contribute to the website. Posts vary in length and follow different forms. The majority of posts are gaming and product views but there are also features and interviews. The writing style is informative with little personality. PR opportunities fall within gaming and product news, launch announcements, reviews and profiles in the form of interviews among others. There is some advertorial on the site but the majority of it is related to the magazine and its latest issue. The team can be reached by phone and email.
