   Website Concept
  I am the CEO of a company called Distraction Gaming. We are not a game designer or a publisher. We have a concept for a website that deal 110% with videogames. So since the core of the concept is videogames and the market will be gamers we want the website to look and feel like a videogame. Does this mean i need to pitch the concept to game designers or is the coding for a videogame and a website 2 different languages. there might even be a need for an application to be downloaded off the website to actually achieve our goals. Which I believe is a totally different kind of coding from web design but might be closer to game design. There is even a branch of the idea that deals with networking consoles kinda like what xbconnect.com does.Please let me know if pitching the idea to game designers is a good idea and if not where should i pitch.If you would like more info about the actual pitch itself let me know and ill go more into detail in a private message.   
  I am not entirely sure what you mean by having your site "feel" like a video game, however I would imagine that you would need to find a website developer and a good graphics artist.It seems like a lot of your nonstandard user interaction stuff could be achieved using Flash, however you probably want to have a flash and a nonflash version of your site (some people have flash disabled). I hope this helps.   ;  you wouldn't need to pitch it to game designers, since the main difficulty of game programming/design, namely the underlying functioning, story telling, and feel wouldn't be there, that would be some mighty overkill.I don't fully understand what you're looking for, but a web designer would be able to make it happen one way or another.IMO, you don't even have to concern yourself with the technology availible or needed, since a web designer would know all of this, along with their pros and cons.;  Also it's worth remebering that if you do go down the flash road, google will have no chance in indexing your website, sure it may index your index page, but after that googlebot and other bots will be completely stumped. This will enevatably, lead to loss of publicity as people won't be able to find your website and all the information on it will be invisible to the bots so won't help people using search engines.Worth considering this every time you consider flash. Php seems like the most advanced thing you can do that still allows bots to index your whole site.Just keep this in mind.PureBlackSin
