Next Generation Gamer, commonly abbreviated as NG-Gamer, is one of the largest gaming websites in the Benelux.
The domain for NG-Gamer was reserved back in 2004, though the actual site was founded in 2005, by Christian de Jong and Raoul Wolff.
These crewmembers have supplied the website with a steady amount of newsposts, articles, screenshots, video's and more, making NG-Gamer what it is today.
[6][7][8] NG-Gamer's Martijn Müller was also the first source to mention Sony's release of PlayStation Home.
[13] In the Dutch community, NG-Gamer was one of the few outlets to be given a number of multiplayer beta codes to Halo 3.
[14][15] Though nobody has an actual working crystal ball to foresee the future, intentions are to implements several new functions.
The authors try to remain as neutral as possible whilst analyzing the subject, though a review is always just another opinion.
A system has been implanted to allow users to post their own articles, for which they are awarded full credit.
With the allowance of HTML tags, these articles can be supported with pictures to brighten them up and make them more attractive.
[18] Unlike most communities, NG-Gamer members do not gain fame by posting a lot.
Users have the ability to filter out responses of other members by selecting the minimum score they want to see.
[19] Although NG-Gamer has several hundreds of thousands unique visitors each month, few of them actually use the forums.
NG-Gamer is working on a strategy to make their forums more attractive and expand their community.
[20][21][22] [1][23] Along with Christian de Jong, Raoul Wolff was the founding member of NG-Gamer.
The reason for this was that Michiel no longer saw the possibility to combine his personal life with his function as he simply did not have enough spare time to invest into NG-Gamer.
Due to his excellent work as PR-contact, he was also assigned the function of Editor in Chief in July 2006.
As of September 2008 he would reprise his role as Editor in Chief alongside Dominique Pijnenburg until April 2012.
