Hello dear readers! Welcome to "Igromania.ru" - the largest portal for computer and video games.
For those who are new to Igromania.ru, we will briefly describe what is here and what tasks we set for ourselves. And if you often visit us, then you already know everything very well - there is nothing to read here, it is better to look at the blog, articles, news, watch videos and unsubscribe in the comments!
For those who stayed, let's start with how the site and the magazine are connected.

IGROMANIA MAGAZINE AND IGROMANIA.RU PORTAL
The editorial offices of the printed magazine "Igromania" and the portal "Igromania.ru" are closely interconnected, but we work completely independently of each other.
Therefore, in the magazine and on the site in the reviews there may be different ratings for the same game. It also happens that a detailed article goes to the magazine, and the freshest and hottest impressions go to the site. Or vice versa. And so on. We have many intersections, but we work in parallel.

ARTICLES OF THE MAGAZINE "GAMMERIA" ON THE SITE
A month later, articles from Igromania are posted on the site and become available to everyone. see through number archive. It happens that an article is published on the site before the release of the journal or soon after, we always report this at the beginning of the article.
Key video materials from the disc are not posted on the site for public access. But some videos different versions are received both on the site and in the magazine. For example, a website may have a short version of a report, while a magazine has a full version, and vice versa. Not all videos do this, of course.
In addition, new issues of Igromania are announced on the website and can be purchased through "Gambling Digital" approximately three days after the print version goes on sale.

The site "Igromania.ru" stands on three pillars. About them - further.

FIRST KIT: NEWS AND BLOGS
On the site - three information flow . it game news , iron news and unified editorial blog "In Plain Text" .
Blog "In Plain Text" appeared relatively recently and allows the editors to directly share their thoughts and impressions with you.
Separately, we note tapesite updates. Here you can immediately see what the latest news, articles, videos, screenshots, wallpapers and, in the near future, blog posts have appeared on the site.

SECOND KIT: ARTICLES
preview(games in development) and review(reviews, reviews) - the backbone of "Igromaniya.ru". We write about PC, Xbox, PS3, Nintendo and other consoles. In addition to them, special materials are published on any game and near-game topics - this is the "Special" section.
In the field of attention - eSports(highlighted in a separate section), mobile games (Android, iPad, iPhone) and software collections. And twice a month we answer questions from readers in the rubric "Tribune".
Standing apart, as usual, is "Iron Shop", dedicated not only to computer hardware, but also to any devices that are interesting for players (this is not only computer mice, steering wheels and joysticks, but also laptops, tablets, readers, etc.).
Game guides and walkthroughs the site is rarely updated now, but the rubric remains, and we hope that in the future we will deal with it more closely.

THIRD KIT: VIDEO
Currently happening on the site full video update so it's pointless to go into details. Let's just say that both regular broadcasts and one-time interesting materials are planned, both chamber (sat down in the editorial office and recorded) and reportage (from the scene and with live eyewitnesses caught unawares).
In addition, we translate gaming trailers and create for them Russian subtitles. Subtitles are disabled, you can watch with or without them. Not just trailers: developer video diaries and other interesting materials also often end up on Igromania.ru. Yes, with subtitles too!
We publish the video first. Then we translate and fasten the Russian text. It takes from one or two days to a week. In general, taking off hearing and translating the text of one video diary for twenty minutes is up to six to eight hours of work and more. Yes, yes, from the outside it seems that it is easy, but in fact it is a hell of a job. Who does not believe - try it yourself!

ON THREE WHALE: OTHER SECTIONS
Giant game base: over fifteen thousand games. The data is constantly updated and expanded. We include all games in the database, except for outright trash. Recently, serious mobile games have also been added. You can look at the series of games and companies.
Game news calendar: release dates for computer and console games.
Screenshots and wallpaper: the name speaks for itself. See wallpaper and screenshot updates via website update feed. There you can adjust the currently only wallpapers and screenshots.
Saves, trainers and codes : once a week the base is replenished and has already reached an impressive size. Cheating nook on the site.
Game of the month: vote for best games recent years. Updated once a month. Each visitor has five points, which he can arbitrarily distribute according to the most significant projects for him.
