If your decision is to stay with this style (and I think it fits the theme of the site) then there are quite a few tweaks to be done.
The "Hot News" at the top (as Krusty mentioned above) is not lined up with the site as it is longer than the fixed style width.
I'd have a professional logo made that would integrate nicely with that background image.
Postbit colors need to be adjusted to fit the color scheme of the site. (light blue isn't working with the rest of the color scheme)
Both the 'default style' and 'green school' are the same style when clicking on the style chooser at the bottom of the site. Eliminate one to avoid confusion.
I'd go with either status icons or forum icons, but not both. And, for your style, I'd go with custom forum icons to draw the eye to those forums.
I would definitely add 'games' as you mention as well as use a 'credits' program like vBcredits in order for your members to come back and continue playing for the chance to win more.
In conjunction with the 'credits' program, I'd have something to spend the credits on. That way, members continue to visit and play games and post to earn credits to 'buy' things.
Those are just a few suggestions....good luck with the site! :up:
