Wow... WAY too many images on that page. The page layout itself renders very fast... but the images... yikes. Took .01 seconds for the page layout to render and 10 seconds for the images to finish catching up :)
hehe... and I'm not even gonna say anything about the ear popping techno music that begins blasting through my speakers when the page loaded....

I totally agree with your remarks. The specific things that I like are the scanline styled layout, the quick loading, and the link bar on the left. Of course the fact that it is video game related is a major plus.
goofy:
Way too cluttered. Difficult to find any information. Too many varying graphics, which makes it hard to tell the information links from the ads.
Load speed is key to any great webpage. That happens to be one reason google gained such popularity. People used to talk about their speed before they were talking about the ability of their searches. But, now the other search sites have sped up their load times as well. Look also at Yahoo versus any other portal site, minimal graphics, maximum load speed.
Matt, GoC:
I vote for simple, highly optimized images used sparingly, with a soft color scheme (sorta like the forum). This will save saint bandwith costs on each page he serves, pages will load faster, render faster (especially on older computers, or computers with a sucky video card like mine), and be compatable with the most browsers. Not really a fan of the graphic-heavy websites myself.

Amazing that no one's posted a concept after all this time

Update... like the last, this is @ 800x600, so you'll have to view the image externally to see it properly! Feedback most welcome ;D
