Game over - gaming channel GIGA closes its doors
Play is not, that would be the guiding principle when describing GIGA should now. The Gaming Channel has lost sponsors namely its premiere and is now forced to batten down the hatches. Too bad, because I was GIGA-gazers first hour. As of today, are no more new recordings are turned, and it still run nunr repeats until the end of March. Because it provides the services start a completely. The website will be shut down in late May.
Since GIGA has indeed picked the right day. Today is Friday the 13th I do not believe in such a nonsense, but one has to smile even when the date includes in the news.
The main reason for the closure of the station is the main sponsor of the jump premiere, which (so DerWesten ) more to their paying customers want to attend. Previously, GIGA renovated the entire structure of the program and also the much-loved GIGA Games set.
If you follow the blog entry by Stephan Borg GIGA believes, so educate his record revenue this year has been. But why GIGA is then set?
The advertising market for television stations to be immense. Even large stations are already complaining about double-digit sales declines of up to advertisers and to invest only in behavioral advertising and marketing campaigns. The small transmitter has on us as devastating impact.
Well, if that's the main reason? I'm not so sure. I for one have not watched GIGA since the relaunch. I liked that somehow not real. 15-minute takes, no spark, no joke. And who's serious news is where you board? Eddy and Nils, the two jokers at all, GIGA. What's more, that no communication could be established with the audience: in so short Takes you can not respond to the comments. Part of the White Netzi's already had problems to present the full game. Formerly, one felt more at home at GIGA, you could identify with the moderators. Since the relaunch was not like that anymore. As someone has not thought along ... or are you not agree?
GIGA displays now only repeats, is set to complete the broadcasting end of March. The website is-if you Golem believes nor remain online until the end of May and then fall as the male victim.
In my opinion it's a shame about the format Late Knights of Eddy and Nils, which has given me many hours of laughter bescherrt real. If this format is not accepted anywhere else, that would be very disappointed.
I will only say goodbye to GIGA. You do not like me but at the end but the beginning all the more for it.
