Boobs! Sweeping changes coming to 1UP

by Kevin Kelly { Jan 13th 2009 at 3:57PM }

As UGO's purchase of 1UP continues to send shock waves across the gaming landscape, details about what to expect under the site's new overlords have begun to emerge. Or rather, what we could have expected. 1UP's Scott Sharkey drops his synergistic ideas for a new site comprised of lists, boobs and lots of both. But alas, Scott's been promptly muzzled by his new handlers.

Don't worry, though. Joystiq plans to "borrow" all of your fine ideas, Scott, for our new megasite: JoyDaily.com -- brought to you by AOL's TMZ!

Ha, whoever owns joydaily.com (Art for Inspiration at Joydaily.com) must be freaking out at the sudden spike in traffic!!

I don't think they're really going to notice. . .

joeybeast @ Jan 13th 2009 4:18PM

How about DailyJoy? Might get higher traffic.

"Scott Sharkey is my hero"

Fix'd.

Add in a plan to host anime fansubs and annoying memes, and it could become the one-stop shop for all your internet needs. Tits, games, free anime, and stupid videos/ytmnds

Zertoss @ Jan 13th 2009 4:23PM

We already have that, it's called YouTube.

doing all that would require an EPIC MANEUVER

Veko @ Jan 13th 2009 4:31PM

1up, I already miss you so much. :( Last I heard, the 1up Show's dead.

Strategy_Panda (The Sandwich Poisoning Crew) @ Jan 13th 2009 5:02PM

retronauts is the only show that's received an update since the layoffs

Lars @ Jan 13th 2009 6:39PM

Same here, I already miss the 1UP Yours show, and even the kids table. We'll have to see how Rebel FM pans out. But I'll really miss 1UP Yours the most. Garnett Lee + Shane Bettenhousen = magic.

CaptainProtonX @ Jan 13th 2009 4:45PM

So, they are mimicking IGN.

Sensational.

Reviews of the latest diamond-encrusted wireless headphones, car chargers, $300 mice, yachets, and pornstars turned song/dance sensation.

Let's not forget the gratuitous, almost vomitous advertising with animated burgers and movie stills of unrated hack/slashers.

SHIT! I even have a new name for the site: 1upyours.com

Levi @ Jan 13th 2009 4:59PM

I just got a new game that we should play Mr. I Didn't Read The Article. It's called "Let's Jump To Conclusions!"

E.J. @ Jan 13th 2009 5:58PM

That's the worst idea I've ever heard in my life.

Yes, this is horrible, this idea.

LiK @ Jan 13th 2009 5:26PM

we need nipples~!

knighty (GT: ZeraKnight) @ Jan 13th 2009 5:58PM

And shitting dick nipples!!!!

Wait.....no.....

No we don't need them thank you very much.

Ninja_Nun @ Jan 13th 2009 5:59PM

When do we want them?
NOW!!

Where do we want them?
In their anatomically correct places!

mynk @ Jan 18th 2009 1:20AM

@ninja

man i dont know whats funnier. your comment or the user identiy + pic to go with it

The Dark Wayne @ Jan 13th 2009 6:39PM

so it's gonna be like Games Radar?

Jawmuncher @ Jan 13th 2009 6:44PM

They should change the forums to how they used to be.
Every system having it's own board and what not.
The 1up board suck now, since it's a neogaf wanna be.

Wiinterfang @ Jan 13th 2009 8:45PM

Now that's change we can believe in.

"All future articles appearing on the site will be in the Top 5 format. Excepting those occasions when they can be extended into a top 10, 50, or 100. In the coming months efforts will be made to maximize pageviews by printing these articles with one word, and eventually one letter, per page."

Wow... they are copying BigDownload's ideas... but they forgot to put them into an image gallery to make them REALLY annoying.
