Once upon a time, there was a fantastic crew that worked under the banner of GameTrailers. Unfortunately, their journey came to an end this year as the crew disbanded. Fans were heartbroken. Viewers were disheartened. The world became a bleak, dark place.
For those who don’t know, GameTrailers was a video gaming website owned by Defy Media. The website specialized in multimedia content, including trailers and gameplay footage of upcoming and recently-released video games, as well as an array of original video content focusing on video games, including reviews, countdown shows, and other web series. The content quality was impeccable, and offered something new every time you went to see their website. Hence, it was harrowing for the fans to watch the GT crew disappear.
But there is good news. The team is back, this time as EasyAllies. Right now they’re in a crowdfunding phase on Patreon, and they’re better than ever. In three hours of being up at a time that is not USA friendly, they raised $6,739 per month and at the time of the last edit, they’re at $37,180.
