We play this... stylishly

"Gaming sites are dark, geeky and cramped, with porn, pop-ups and poker ads. We just don't like that..." says weplaythis, a new social network site for gamers. It comes to the attention of the gamesblog from the inimitable Alice who notes some of its more attractive features:



there are some nice touches, like "my digital alter ego" which points to all the other spots on the web you might be living in, and the "playground" section where you're encouraged to upload a pic of your playing space..



It looks more Edge than Arcade, thus hoping to cater to a more sophisticated crowd of discerning interactive types. Unfortunately, more nosing around will have to wait until the super-secret invite code is sent out; weplaythis is currently in closed beta.
