I want to add a game news section on my website,
but I thought it would be wiser to ask before making the step.

I am not talking about how to copy paste the info from other websites,
i am talking about how to and where to get the info without money,
since i won't win anything from the news.
Anyone knows any source where to get the info?

I don't want to contact directly the games companies since that would be foolish,
cuz of the age my website has: 3 months.

Also, i am not talking about adding 1 million news each day.
I would consider a maximum of 3 news a day.

Wow thanks!
Am I allowed to copy paste the news legally or should I add my own words for the news?

May I suggest that you read The Heath Handbook in your spare time? If you are going to run your own website that you want others to visit, it will be important for you to write articles that are easily understandable.

Thanks for the suggestion
I have already built the website and it is running for 3 months
I don't think I am good at writing in English, but I will do my best.
The question is again: Can I copy paste or I have to add my own words for the news?

The URL I linked you is a social news aggregator run by the community. As a result, rather than linking to a single source, it refers to multiple sources from a variety of different websites. You can freely get your news here without feeling guilty of ripping off someone else's site.

As for the articles themselves: What country are you running your site from? Generally, no, you should not copy and paste other people's content word-for-word. This goes against copyright law in most countries. It's illegal. Even if you live somewhere where it's not illegal, it's still plagiarism. Rewrite the news in your own words.

In summary: You can use the internet as a source for as much news as you want. However, you can not copy it exactly.

Thanks for the reply
I run the website from a country where is no law for this stuff, but I really want to be perfectly legal, or as much as possible so it will be great adding my own words for the news.
