My goal is just to have a community where people can go and see what new game news is out for the day and comment on it.

Thank you. Should be a damn rule you have to link the game in the post

I think there's actually a rule against it... seen as pandering/advertising? I may be mistaken though.

The entire point of the community is to discuss games. Not labeling the game in the original post is just inevitably going to result in a quarter to half the comments are people just asking the name of the game.
