eGamer: A Premium WordPress Theme for Gamers
As the premium themes market continues to grow and expand, it is interesting to see theme designers move to fill niches that were not previously filled.
The latest example of this is the eGamer theme by my friend Nick Roach over at Elegant Themes. Whether you play video games or MMORPG’s (such as World of Warcraft, EverQuest 2, etc.), the eGamer theme was created with gamers in mind, and the feature set matches what video game bloggers would most likely be looking for.
Features included with the eGamer theme include:
- Custom Author Review System.
- Video Embedding (from video sites such as YouTube).
- Thumbnail Resizing.
- Ability to Display Recent Reviews, Banner Ads, Popular Posts, and Recent Videos section.
- Choice of Magazine or Blog-style Layout.
- Option for post-page thumbnails

In order to get a true appreciation of eGamer’s appearance and feature set, you’ll want to view the full demo here. I love how the sidebar is on the left and the comment section is really well done.
For a theme of this quality, there has to be a price, right? Well sort of. In order to download the eGamer WordPress theme, you simply need to be a member of the Elegant Themes club, which only costs $19.99 for a years membership!
With that $19.99 you also get access to every other theme released by Elegant Themes during that year. After a year passes, you have the option of renewing your membership to continue to receive future themes. I’ve been following Nick for quite awhile now and he seems to maintain a pretty nice release schedule, making this investment a no-brainer!
