Future US Announces the Launch of the New GamesRadar

New Site Features More Content and Updated Social Features in a Sleek, New Design

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 11, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Future US, a leading hybrid media group specializing in gaming and technology properties, today announced that GamesRadar, the premiere source for everything video games, has a brand new look.  The site underwent a complete overhaul, resulting in a slick new layout, editor-curated content in a carousel style slideshow, updated social features, and easier navigation.

Comprehensive updates to the site include:

    --  Clean and modern tile based layout that puts game imagery front and
        center.
    --  Dynamic and interactive functionality that draws inspiration from the
        best mobile apps
    --  More space for editors to feature the best content.
    --  Social interactions are also brought into focus directly on the home
        page. Not only can you see who's interacted with content and get a taste
        of recent comments - but you can also contribute comments or share to
        your favorite social networks right from the home page.
    --  Everything you need to know about the best games in a dynamic module -
        again, directly on the home page.
    --  Users will never miss out on GamesRadar's famous Top 7s and other
        gallery articles, because they're now featured prominently.
    --  Infinitely scrolling content stream allows endless eons of browsing
        through everything GamesRadar has to offer - without even needing to
        click.
"We are extremely proud about the latest evolution of GamesRadar.com," said Sophia Tong, Editor-in-Chief, GamesRadar.  "The new look and site features help lay the foundation for all the exciting things to come in 2013."  A complete walk-through of the new site can be viewed at http://www.gamesradar.com/gamesradar-website-walkthrough.
