I've been an on-again, off-again writer for Ars Technica for nearly ten years. (Mostly off for the last four.) Periodically, they solicit submissions from new writers, usually in a few specific subject areas. I don't know that video games is one of them, because Ben, Casey, and Andrew seem to have that on lockdown both in terms of volume and quality.

And yes, they pay, because they believe that good writing (and journalism) deserves to be compensated. The EIC (Ken) is a stand-up guy, and really cares about his people. The ME (Eric) is really great, too. If you want to cut your teeth doing online journalism, I can't think of a better group to learn with.

If you think you want to write about video games, you should drop Ben an email. He's the gaming editor, and he can tell you more. (Even if it's a no.)
