Hi people, please appraise these domains:

ds2forum.com (stands for dungeon siege 2, coming in out in august. Number 4 game for traffic at gamespot.com)

grawforum.com (ghost recon advanced warfighter. Coming out november-december)

doa4forum.com (Dead or Alive 4. Xbox game coming out in december. Already number 7 game for traffic at gamespot.com)

civ4forum.com (Civilization 4. Civ 3 has been the game of the year for macintosh, and a success also for pc).

I think game specific forums are touchy since the game has to have longevity and guaranteed sequals.

You also have to launch the site at least 30 days before the game is released.

ds2forum.com -reg fee
grawforum.com reg fee
doa4forum.com reg fee
civ4forum.com up to $20 maybe

well, all these have guaranteed sequels.. they are all sequels indeed. As for longevity, they'll be out a couple of years at least before the sequel (Dungeon Siege is even older).

And we are in July, while most of these games are coming out in november-december.. I think there is time to develop a forum. Gaming companies tend to list you in the official site if you develop a good forum, and that's all free and extra traffic.

Will this change your appraisal? I thought they'd been worth at least low-mid $xxx
