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.

He's right you know, SSX was not that good.

[–]EvOllj -3 points-2 points ago

some games are better to watch on youtube than to play by yourself.

[–]wwm0nkey 1 point2 points ago

How is watching someone play online anywere close to being better than playing and having fun?

[–]EvOllj -1 points0 points ago

That depends on:

  • How frustrating the bad parts of the game are.
  • How funny the comments are, especially while bridging the less interestring parts of a game.
  • How much the game is abut graphics and how little the game is about gameplay.
  • How crappy the console-exclusive game/version is and people still manage to do something funny with it (red vs blue)

Except you know...When you don't... Like the majority of users and not the vocal minority.

Unless you're a console gamer. I've always been a fan of EA, of course the only computer game I ever played regularly, and still do, is Theme Hospital.

That's pretty funny. However, advice animals and memes like this don't belong on r/gaming.

[–]cornelious11 -1 points0 points ago

For some reason, EA is actually nice to me o.O... I don't know why, but they just like me apparently. (Also, I like quite a few of the games that they have released)

Mirror's Edge wasn't bad. I just bought it a couple weeks ago and didn't realize it was an EA game until the first time I played it. Great game so I guess it depends on what part of EA it's coming from.
