Looking for critical review of site

I am looking for a lot of insight into my gaming site
We have been growing a ton on our social networks, but the site is not growing as quickly as we would like. We have a pretty decent back link portolio from being the first to break news, some unique pieces, a scholarship, etc.
But I would love another set of eyes on things.What could I do to drastically improve the site? To most improve its seo?

The backlinks are a problem. You have some obvious link networks on there, specifically:
top.ind.in options.pw submit.pw aahana.co.in toplist.space toplist.ws toplist.co.in url.firm.in alexa.in.net toplist.in.net
All of these are on the same IP. That's a whole lot of domains on one IP address that all link back to you - and that's not the only network set. I'm not sure how much the sitewides from zeldaeurope.de and vgchartz.com are helping you either. The zeldaeurope is listed as an "affiliate" with almost 80,000 dofollow links. Google may be seeing that as a paid footer link.
Homepage is a bit slow - 2.9 MB and over 8 sec load time on Pingdom.
Content - mentions the 3 main keywords - "zelda" "triforce" and "game" or "gaming" at least 300 combined times in the code. It's pretty high, I think. Especially given that your title has Zelda three times as well. We've found that 1 is best, 2 if you're separating with pipe - but 3 is usually too much. So between the two, a bit of a Panda bite.
I also see two major ads above the fold. One is for Forex, the other for a bank. A refresh shows me Careers Australia & a cloud security company. I mean the ads aren't even closely related. A gaming site with a big forex ad tells me there's an issue somewhere, as well.
Sorry I can't go further but as Matt said, you could always get someone to help you out outside the forum.

Hi Noah!
It sounds like you're looking for a site audit, which tends to be a bit outside the scope of Q&A. We've got a list of recommended companies if you'd like to look for a consultant, or if you have a specific question the lovely folks here should be able to help.

Hi folks! I was checking the backlink profile for my website - wishpicker.com - we got linked to by a large number of prominent websites in the last couple of months. For some reason, this does not seem to show up when I do a backlink search on OSE. Is there something that I need to do here/ fix? Thanks in advance!

When looking at my site in open site explorer the top results are very dodgy spam and porn sites backlinking to us. Is this having a negative impact on our site?
When using open site explorer to check out who is linking to us I was surprised that the top results are spam and porn sites. These are completely irrelevant links. Does this have a negative impact on our site? What can we do to combat this?
