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.

  • 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.

Doubtful. More like hundreds of posts about some inside joke within Skyrim, complaining about bugs, etc. r/Gaming never sleeps.

r/Gaming never ceases to amaze me at what they find funny, or pertinent information. I keep coming back to r/Gaming, but I know why I do: It's like a horrible car accident, you just can't look away.

Turns out the inside joke is baskets.

I installed reddit enhancement suite. I find the filter tool to be extremely useful around here.

No, now /r/gaming will just be full of stupid screenshots of dumb shit people did in Skyrim that they think is clever (but isn't). Also lots of stupid memes using skyrim.

I can't wait! I am sick of being "sold" bf3, mw3, and skyrim. These last few weeks felt like a giant commercial for all 3 games.

That is all.

For a few days, until everyone's used up their paid time off.

People seem to be very bitter in these comments....Rejoice, brethren, for you shall at least have access to Skyrim streams!

There'll be 550 posts about annoying bugs.

823 posts about inside jokes about the plot

and 1396 posts about the first time they killed a dragon.

Do mind these are just rough estimates, they might rise heavily depending on the amount of sales skyrim pulls off day 1.

Does anyone else remember that Assassin's Creed Revelations comes out in four days? Man, Skyrim's hype is just stomping AC into the ground. I can't imagine why they would have elected to release their game four days after a hype-machine like Skyrim. They could have pushed their release back a week and had a fighting chance.

Sometimes I play video games AND read /r/gaming at the same time :O
