You may have heard recently the 1UP network has been acquired by UGO Entertainment. Well, their own Scott Sharkey -- in response to criticisms of UGO ("zomg lifestyle for gamerz! Babes, DVDs, firetrucks, lobsters" as Destructoid says) and some expected according changes to the site -- has written up a top 5 list detailing what's a'comin'. Have a read, a laugh, a little cry...

For the serious take on the whole thing (just as important, or probably moreso), head over to 1UP Editor Sam Kennedy's entry here, which basically tells the full story of what's happened.

In light of 1UP's acquisition by UGO Entertainment there has been a lot of speculation as to our future editorial direction. I've been called in to do a little rumor control and to share some exciting upcoming developments with our readership. I'm sure you'll all be as thrilled as I am with what's on the horizon for us.

5. Top 5s
Top 5s

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.

    This was a hysterical read. Be sure to see my and Rene "Evil Adam" Rosa's comments about #2 on the list.

      Haha man, it's really great to know you guys are cool. There are differences in approach for the sites, but it's clear you can totally see eye to eye and have a sense of humour about yourselves too. Really nice to know, as 1UP is dear to me.
