I know this blog isn't very good at all, but I've just started with it very recently and would love some scathing criticism which would help me improve it. I'm also going to focus more on serious articles soon instead of reviewing games. Anyway, I'm looking forward to any advice!

Hmm, how can I be as nasty and scathing as possible?

It's certainly nice and clear to read, which is always a good start, but the length of your posts are mismatched against the length of your sidebar. If you found a way to lengthen your sidebar then that may make it look more balanced.

Also, your posts are long, and that's not a bad thing, but walls of text are boring to the eye. With your game reviews, if you included a second picture with each one and spced them out a bit, they would make them easier to look at, as would using dot points of lists. Internet users typically have a short attention span, you have to make it easy for them to stay focused.

yeah I don't really know much about HTML so I won't be able to lengthen the sidebar...hmm..maybe I should learn HTML?

Anyway, thanks for the tips, I'll be sure to put some more pictures and such in the posts to get people's attention

Because your site has so much text it would be great to break it down with graphics, maybe ads to give the reader a breather.

Also, a logo would appear to be much needed.

You need some colour. Perhaps find another template that adds a bit more interest and list your sidebar items so that they're not condensed.

Why dont u add more widgets like music player or game videos and some adsense adds that way u can earn too.

[Ferox]

No! Don't ad a music player! Especially not one that auto-plays, you will only drive people away as soon as they arrive.

[Termite]

Yeah I don't want to add a music player, especially since the blog has nothing to do with music. But I might consider putting small music clip things in the reviews if I want people to hear some of the music for the game (If it's really good or something)

And game videos really isn't my thing, I think they would sort of ruin the whole clean feel of the blog somehow

it looks so white, though it seems nice good luck..

I like it. Easy for reading and clean design. Just use more screenshots and it is perfect.
