Beware of trading scammers!

A subreddit for anything related to games (but not sports).

"Related" means that posts must contain gaming-related content in the link/post body, not just a "forced" connection via the title or a caption added to the content.


Posting Rules

  • Posts must be directly gaming-related. Thus, "generic" image macros/memes (where the character itself is not related to gaming) like Scumbag Steve, Good Guy Greg, etc. will be removed. Something that "reminds you of a game", or "looks like something from a game" is also not an appropriate submission; similarly, reaction GIFs are also not appropriate as submissions.

  • Following Reddiquette is encouraged

  • No "general" URL shorteners (bitly, tinyurl, etc). Single-site URL shorteners (such as youtu.be or fav.me) are allowed.

  • No game or product giveaway of any kind

  • NSFW submissions and comments must be labeled

  • Spoilers can be posted using the following formatting:
    [X Kills Y](/spoiler)
    Result: X Kills Y.

  • To mark a spoiler as relevant to a specific game/topic, use the alternate formatting:
    [Player 1 wins](/spoiler "Pong")
    Result:
    Player 1 wins

  • Report posts containing spoilers not using the above method

  • Don't post users' personal information.

Submission Rules

Is your post not showing up? Do not delete it. Wait 5 minutes to give AutoModerator a chance to look at it; it approves most submissions automatically. If it hasn't shown up after more than 5 minutes, simply message the moderators and ask us to let it through.

WITH RANDOMLY GENERATED LEVELS AND A 10,000 DOLLAR BUDGET!

No the other half is "IF YOU BUY FROM EA, ACTIVISION/BLIZZARD/, UBISOFT, AND EVERY OTHER MAINSTREAM COMPANY BUT VALVE, YOU ARE KILLING THE GAME INDUSTRY"

Apparently I'm supposed to play Minecraft and Valve games only.

Did you say a boycott??!?!?!?!?

No, you have to post a PICTURE of it. That way people know for sure.

NEW COUNTER-STRIKE IS GOING BLOW EVEN THOUGH I'VE NEVER PLAYED IT AND HAVE NO IDEA HOW ITS GOING TO PLAY! GRAPHICS ARE WORSE THAN ORIGINAL GAME. <--- I've actually read this one a few times. lol

Hmm, people enjoying something vs. people pointlessly complaining about something. I wonder which one is more annoying.. Looks like we've got a real brain teaser on our hands.

I enjoyed the games that I played during my childhood as well, but I don't post them for free karma

[–]faggotoni 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

And karma matters how? Still not sure why people like you get all butthurt just because someone else is getting meaningless numbers added to their account. Care to explain?

Was this actually in the game? That is fucking hilarious. I would have laughed my ass off.

The game was incredibly easy, but a lot of fun to play. That's from the end of World 3, which was the best part of the game :)

The World 3 Boss is one of my favorite bosses ever.

100% of r/gaming agrees that the other half is like that.

[–]benigno_numine 2 points3 points ago

Half?

It's like /r/pics.

Lots of shite with one good submission every once in a while.

...That people then proceed to copy until the original joke doesn't even seem that funny anymore.

[–]squiggothhunter 1 point2 points ago

Does the other half say false?

[–]JmAyotte 5 points6 points ago

hum excuse me but that would be /v/

[–]DrSandwich 7 points8 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Yes, and he 'stole' this picture from /v/.

[–]onecooldan 0 points1 point ago

Best part of that game, hands down.

This is impossible. 80% of /r/gaming is nostalgia posts and "Look what my girlfriend found in the attic", so that only leaves 20% for bitching about which platform they dislike. This includes posts like this, which are bitching about the bitching.

It looks shitty.

i only recommend games i have played and diss games i have played. I try not to fanboy games and do acknowledge the bad.

[–]vagueness 0 points1 point ago

But... but I've gleaned enough information from the hive mind. Isn't that the same thing as playing it myself!?

[–]kabukistar -2 points-1 points ago

What game is this? I'm sure it sucks.
