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.

My body is ready

[–]aik3n 32 points33 points ago

my body is reggie

[–]The_Kommunist 2 points3 points ago

my reggie is moist

[–]Alienkid 57 points58 points ago

No, no, no! Don't shake the baby!

[–]SigmaMu 37 points38 points ago

[–]Ebion 4 points5 points ago

but G4 told me it was the most optimal way to play the game! :(

[–]bursho 1 point2 points ago

Don't worry, just buy Babysitting Momma.

OH MY GOD! FUCKING BRILLIANT!

[–]provokedcarp 1 point2 points ago

Made my morning. So smooth.

[–]GreyouTT 4 points5 points ago

That was surprisingly unbiased.

[–]studmuffffffin 1 point2 points ago

I don't think I want to watch that awkwardness.

[–]Alienkid 6 points7 points ago

If ever there were a smooth way to get something so blatantly wrong and controversial, Kevin Pereira nailed it!

[–]AdamEdge 20 points21 points ago

Oh yea E3 2008 that was one of the most disappointing E3 conferences of all time, the only good thing that came out from nintendo that E3 was Miyamoto saying that they were making pikmin 3

[–]Chicarito 20 points21 points ago

Pikmin 3 is like the new HL3

[–]Vilvos 8 points9 points ago

Pikmin 3 has been finished for a while, but Nintendo decided to upgrade the graphics and hold it for the Wii-U.

[–]pburn883 4 points5 points ago

Oh man pikmin i love that game. Funniest thing ive read on reddit is how racist that game is. I hope i can find it. Fuck it im lazy

[–]Chicarito 0 points1 point ago

waiting for you to deliver :P

[–]pburn883 2 points3 points ago

here is a more serious explanation

But to put it simply its a white man who comes to this less developed land. Segregates the people based on color and sacrifices them and uses their abilities to help himself.

I dont care. the game was awesome and people need to stop reading into things. Why would an asian company promote racism?

[–]Chicarito 0 points1 point ago

I know, its just a funny concept

[–]Pants536 1 point2 points ago

You mean they actually tightened up the graphics a bit?

[–]ScottCarmichael 2 points3 points ago

That video is so painful to watch. I remember seeing it live and my buddy and I (who worked just feet away from each other) gave each other "WTF" looks all through that E3.

That music stuff is an abomination.

[–]dinofan01 2 points3 points ago

As a Nintendo fan that year never happened.

[–]slack6a66ath 30 points31 points ago

I'm kind of turned on by this GIF.

[–][deleted] 29 points30 points ago

Then turn it off with the Wii U GamePad. Man that's such a cool feature! It's a remote control for your TV

[–]ScottCarmichael 7 points8 points ago

All these years I've been getting up to change the channel! Now if only someone could come up with a way to get rid of those bunny ears and still have 20/20 come in clear!!!

[–]Tinox 1 point2 points ago

I can't take the ears off.

[–]Faaaabulous 1 point2 points ago

That is pure innovation right there, fellas. I can't believe none of us had thought of this before today!

[–]AzurewynD 8 points9 points ago

Hey look kids! It's Ravi Drums.

No seriously, that's what they call him.

[–]lit0st 14 points15 points ago

[–]hummusisyummus 45 points46 points ago

Nintendo had this, Sony had their "Riiiiiiidge Racerrrrrrr" moment; what we really need is Microsoft giving us some laughs for a change.

[–]ivenoideawhat 252 points253 points ago

Every Kinect presentation.

[–]GoldLegends 38 points39 points ago

Heyyooo!!

[–]ScottCarmichael 17 points18 points ago

Kinect was such a horrible idea. It still is. THIS is proof of how awful the Kinect is and what types of stuff it results in.

[–]Quantumform 14 points15 points ago

I watched more of that video than I'm willing to admit.

[–]ken_kesey 4 points5 points ago

I thought it was a joke at first but... wow, that's fucked up

[–]Saint947 2 points3 points ago

Oh my sweet jumping jesus christ in jogging shorts.

I just want to die.

[–]Billy_Blaze 2 points3 points ago

It was about the time that R2D2 started dancing that I realize I watched far, FAR too much of that video

[–]MANCREEP 0 points1 point ago

you went too far. :) but it gets better.

[–]Andrizzleton 0 points1 point ago

the piece of hardware has interesting an unexplored applications...however, I don't think it's ever going to be used well for video games on the xbox.

[–]beamoflaser 15 points16 points ago

Yeah not really laughs, more like uncomfortable cringes.

I once saw a gif on 4chan about that little girl that's fondling the tiger...

IF YOU KNOW 4CHAN YOU'LL UNDERSTAND WHAT I FOUND...

[–]AwesomePaedoGuy 2 points3 points ago

There is a drawing on paheal of the tiger raping her.

I am with Yahtzee on all this motion control bullshit.

[–]Killroyomega -5 points-4 points ago

[–]Saint947 10 points11 points ago

Aaaaand now I'm on some FBI watch list. What the fuck.

[–]Killroyomega 1 point2 points ago

Why would that put you on an FBI watch list?

Right.

Don't answer me then.

[–]jacobbsny10 4 points5 points ago

Oh, hey, Skittles! Wait... NO SKITTLES. SKITTLES STOP! LET GO OF MY PANTS SKITTLES WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING AHHHH.

Yeah... That's how it went IIRC.

[–]Doomfield 2 points3 points ago

Microsoft is the undisputed master of awkward presentations.

Developers. Developers. Developers.

[–]ooNegativeONEoo 0 points1 point ago

That presentation has more of an endearing infamy to it, though. It's funny awkward, not uncomfortable awkward. Well... more one than the other.

[–]Doomfield 0 points1 point ago

Well, now. After years of it stewing away as a sort of icon for awkward presentations. But man, as they happen, Ballmer's displays sure are uncomfortable. The man scares me.

[–]WingOfWar 9 points10 points ago

Never again, NEVER again.

But if I had to predict anything, Nintendo is going to run the fucking show. Sony will just be... ok? Microsoft will somewhat blow; but then again, it's going to be hard topping last year's catastrophes.

[–]ScottCarmichael 4 points5 points ago

It's not hard to predict Nintendo will own this year's E3 - even if their reveals are mediocre at best.

Why? Because Sony and Microsoft have nothing significant to show/reveal. They already said the 720/PS4 won't appear and usually whatever company has new hardware to demo will build up the most hype and excitement. It's always been that way.

[–]onionpowder 2 points3 points ago

For a console that won't even run Unreal 4 I doubt the WiiU will be a hit with the hardcore crowd.

[–]thrillho145 4 points5 points ago

UPDATE: Epic says it has yet to declare its Nintendo strategy for UE4

[–]onionpowder 0 points1 point ago

We'll see after tomorrow what it can really do. Considering Epic is screaming for Microsoft and Sony to use the 28NM AMD 7000 / Nvidia 600 chipsets, it's in Nintendos court to see if they'll be in the same ball park as the next gen Xbox/PS4

[–]I_Will_Allow_This 3 points4 points ago

Doesn't matter; everyone in this subreddit is jizzing all over just thinking about a new Super Smash Bros or another Mario game.

[–]ecchimaru 0 points1 point ago

Nah, ninty just got in ahead of everybody else with their reveals. Also, they go last in the press conferences, so they have a pretty good strategy but sony and xbox may have some more tricks up their sleeve.

[–]Starclimber28 0 points1 point ago

Skittles? Skittles!

[–]MikeyTsunami 52 points53 points ago

[–]_Meece_ 19 points20 points ago

That was the greatest moment of the Kinect reveal. It's shame a lot of the shit they showed off then, never came to light.

[–]MikeyTsunami 3 points4 points ago

Yeah it's tied with the year after when they showed off the kinect's casualness with the kid actors.

[–]hummusisyummus 8 points9 points ago

Wow. How did I miss this?

[–]MikeyTsunami 9 points10 points ago

You were far too busy eyeing the hummus from across the room. Shame.

[–]hummusisyummus 1 point2 points ago

What's it doing ACROSS the room?

[–]jacobbsny10 3 points4 points ago

Son... You ever seen a grown man naked?

[–]ssirin88 75 points76 points ago

[–]hummusisyummus 26 points27 points ago

... ... I retract my statement. That is golden.

[–]chancesarent 10 points11 points ago

I think this guy went to the same dance school as the blonde girl in the Friday music video. So much elbow and lack of coordination...

[–]zombicidalscientist 14 points15 points ago

I'd say the football stuff from Kinect Sports: Season 2 was pretty bad.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point ago

Oh god, someone PLEASE make a gif of the black guy's little winning celebration.

[–]ScottCarmichael 3 points4 points ago

Anyone ever wonder if the people working on the Kinect admit to each other, behind closed doors, that the Kinect is a giant steaming pile? You know they gotta be thinking that. I hope they're smart enough to be thinking that.

[–]Flangas 7 points8 points ago

Was this not good enough?

[–]Sergnb 7 points8 points ago

"ever wondered what the bottom of an avatar looks like?

Well BAM, there it is"

The best thing about the 360 isn't beating the games, it's showing everyone online that I did.

I have epilepsy and this literally what I look like having a seizure while playing a computer game.

Wii-U music is the only launch title.
