So Long GameNewsNow RSS Reader
Post Body

So I can't be (Well... that's not true, I could TOTALLY be ;P) the only one that used this neat little RSS Reader on the Windows Phone (By the SelesGames Folk, makers of the also dying WeaveReader). For quite some time it's not been updated, and the feeds have been dying off one at a time. Recently the paid functionality stopped working (Which was most of the app), and I tried reaching out to the team that made it half a dozen times about so that a) the paid features could be fixed or b) they could share the Feed List they'd put into it so that one could keep reading the feeds they've grown to love in a working reader.

The first time they responded with a promise to share the feeds (It wasn't going to be fixed sadly) when they were done with whatever it was they were working on at the time, but all future correspondences went unanswered. So I've gone through and mapped each feed that currently works to the corresponding feeds on the sites referenced (Where there were category specific feeds, I choose the feed that encompassed them all... and a little more besides). I did not find matching feeds to the defunt feeds, as if they haven't been working, they're not part of the current reading list in the app... though I may come back and add those at some point too. :P)

So here's the list of the feeds that are currently working if you had everything selected in this app (I was looking for a list somewhere, didn't find one, so here's the current list for archival purposes):

Site Feed URL
Kotaku http://feeds.gawker.com/kotaku/full
gamesTM http://www.gamestm.co.uk/feed/
PC Gamer http://www.pcgamer.com/feed/
Gamasutra http://feeds.feedburner.com/GamasutraFeatureArticles/

GameInformer.com http://www.gameinformer.com/feeds/thefeedrss.aspx
Ars Technica http://feeds.arstechnica.com/arstechnica/gaming/

And here's the full list of what at one point worked.
