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.

"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.

[–]Beanbaker 87 points88 points ago

I tried submitting it right as it came out. Someone beat me to it. Okay. IT TELLS YOU SOMEONE ELSE POSTED IT. Why still post it? Jesus, people.

[–]vegeto079 34 points35 points ago

Everyone wants a chance at that sweet karma.

[–]Mustkunstn1k 1 point2 points ago

If the post worked for them than that means that it didn't tell you. It only doesn't let you post it when there is already an exact same link and then it takes you to that post.

You can have all sorts of addons to your link on youtube.

[–]Beanbaker 0 points1 point ago

You can still post it if it's already been posted. Reposts.... You just have to keep going on with the posting. It does alert you, though.

[–]Sterculius 0 points1 point ago

Same reason why someone will ask a question, and then you see about 30 people respond with the same exact answer, each of them almost certainly having seen at least once that the answer was already given. Attention whores.

[–]mookler 216 points217 points ago

Probably the guy who posted this image, but sooner.

[–]azurleaf 121 points122 points ago

Coming from a knight of /new, I concur. I scroll down the list until I find the first posting of whatever it is, and upvote that one. Then I go and downvote everyone else.

[–]WildCardSR 20 points21 points ago

I do the same, but with whoever posted 2nd. This world needs a little chaos.

[–]Blue_Falcon 73 points74 points ago

Not sure if Monster, or Hero.

[–]iTzMatt 73 points74 points ago

Hero. Defiantly hero.

[–]RuafaolGaiscioch 36 points37 points ago

I was gonna call you out on misspelling, but in this context, defiantly could actually be accurate. Bravo to you for turning around my misconceptions.

[–]Fine_Structure 16 points17 points ago

What if people who misspell definitely as defiantly... are doing it to be defiant?

[–]AssassinFlonne 25 points26 points ago

Nah, they're defiantly just idiots.

[–]iTzMatt 6 points7 points ago

Somehow the first time I get called out for misspelling a word didn't turn out as awful as I would have imagined. Thanks Ruafaol, my misspelling wing man.

Sorry

[–]walkingtheriver -4 points-3 points ago

[–]likeaslave 4 points5 points ago

It's actually definitely.

[–]walkingtheriver 0 points1 point ago

It was a joke... That site is made to parody the one spelled right, it also says in the bottom of the page:

Example: You definately shouldn't believe everything you read on the Internet.

[–]beergoggles69 3 points4 points ago

Definitely hero.

[–]JewCosby 12 points13 points ago

god bless you sir!

[–]phoncible 1 point2 points ago

there can be only one

edited for dumbassness: "only be" -> "be only"

[–]SolarisPrime -1 points0 points ago

it's "there can be only one". The Demo actually SAYS the correct line. I bet you don't even know what the line is originally from!

[–]phoncible 0 points1 point ago

Aww, crap, woops. You are right. I reread it a few times, guess my brain ran auto correct; I'd swear it looked proper.

And yes I do know where it's from. It's from the first Highlander, well, from that "universe" in general, usually said when one highlander kills another by beheading. Or at least Christ Lambert said it once or twice, as did Sean Connery I believe.

[–]SolarisPrime -1 points0 points ago

sorry, I thought you were some kid who didn't know jack shit.

BUDDY!

[–]phoncible -1 points0 points ago

no prob. and yet another typo: "chrisT lambert". I pride myself on my own spell-checking abiliy, I just totally failed on it today.

[–]Dazbuzz 93 points94 points ago

and there is always that one guy who posts the "spoilers" in the title.

[–]AmazingRealist 1 point2 points ago

He got what he deserved

[–]CallMePyro 2 points3 points ago

Weirdest laugh ever.

[–]IamGumbyy 0 points1 point ago

Relevant user... what was I saying again?

[–]Naxza 65 points66 points ago

It's like the great Reddit Sperm Race, where the winner gets exponential Karma growth.

Also, this is something I never thought I'd wind up typing.

[–]jCcrackhead 3 points4 points ago

How long have you been waiting to see if the opportunity to type that occurred?

[–]Naxza 1 point2 points ago

I wouldn't be lying if I told you I haven't been, but it's still one of those strange utterances one must reflect upon only after it leaves one's mouth/fingers.

[–]Zoloir -3 points-2 points ago

I almost didnt upvote but then realized how important this might be to him/her and did so out of compassion.

[–]Hyper1on 0 points1 point ago

Boom. You're welcome

[–]greybro 19 points20 points ago

AlphaStryk3r appears to have won this particular struggle.

[–]Clovyn 10 points11 points ago

Of course he did. He is the Alpha male.

(also he didn't give away the video content in the title like a dumbass)

[–]cake4chu 1 point2 points ago

You better watch your back, AlphaStryk3r.

[–]pavlpants 6 points7 points ago

Obviously the official one

[–]nonumbers 6 points7 points ago

[Official]

[–]Asifys 2 points3 points ago

[HQ]

[–]redscofield 13 points14 points ago

There can be only one.

[–]CHEWS_OWN_FORESKIN 6 points7 points ago

One skin to fore them all?

[–]Tradias 7 points8 points ago

None of them. I'm camping video links in the search results.

[–]norealpurposehere2 7 points8 points ago

The guy who made the pointless submission about the other submissions.

[–]Jakeron 3 points4 points ago

You. The guys who posts about people who post.

[–]Noturordinaryguy 4 points5 points ago

You're the genius that realized, "It's too late to post the video for karma, but it's not too late to make a post commenting on all the videos"

[–]Sirandrew56 8 points9 points ago

Less "Meat the Pyro!" than I expected.

[–]ICantMakeNames 2 points3 points ago

I've seen a couple posts like this on reddit (where someone's got an image of a page filled with the same topic), but I've never seen it myself. Is it just being on at the right time, or is it something to do with... RES?

[–]Scapuless 1 point2 points ago

You would have to go to /gaming and then sort by "new" at the right time to see it.

[–]taylorm6707 2 points3 points ago

Let us have a karma whore death match.

[–]cake4chu -1 points0 points ago

Who would win, TF2 + HL2 vs. Mario + Zelda.

My moneys on PC.

[–]keeganadavis 2 points3 points ago

you will ;)

[–]LiteraryBoner 1 point2 points ago

It's like a horse race.

And btacethe2nd leads the race with Dr. Donut only a hand behind! TraineRed and pop_tards_rule are just now coming around the bend, with theMagicalCouch on the inside gaining speed! Is he going to overtake pop_tards_rule!? In the far back is Kabukistar and Levohs whom I am unable to see clearly!

[–]AlwaysDefenestrated 0 points1 point ago

Reddit user names are not entirely unlike horse names.

EDIT: Who wouldn't bet on POTATO_IN_MY_ANUS at the racetrack?

[–]Archyta5 1 point2 points ago

There can only be one.

[–]JupitersClock 1 point2 points ago

Robogal tried too hard.

[–]Lots42 1 point2 points ago

Really, Reddit?

Last time I submitted a link, I spent many minutes figuring out if it had been submitted recently.

And it had been.

AND I DIDN'T SUBMIT.

[–]DrDonut 1 point2 points ago

Hey, I'm at the top of the list! And this image is on the front page! In a way, I DID make it to the front page.

[–]papercowmoo 1 point2 points ago

I like how some people try to make their post more interesting by adding a shitty spoiling newshead-like title at the end as if they're some kind of half-baked journalism failure. I'm talking to you, Robogal.

[–]MCJeeba 1 point2 points ago

Thousands of sperm racing for the egg.

[–]timemachina 1 point2 points ago

This picture is probably the only time these people are ever going to be on the front page..

[–]duncan12457 1 point2 points ago

bad luck me: first one to post it, downvoted to damnation

[–]Einchy 1 point2 points ago

RoboGal, you suck at titles.

[–]dolphin_police 0 points1 point ago

And Alphastryker is the winner.

[–]Serinus 0 points1 point ago

I'd say sombrejester or AlphaStryk3r, depending on the validity/quality of Somb's link.

[–]CoyoteStark 0 points1 point ago

There can be only one!!!

[–]bean35130 0 points1 point ago

the one just above the bottom.

[–]Bushels_for_All 0 points1 point ago

The game is afoot...

[–]TheSleepingNinja 0 points1 point ago

I really hoped Robogal would've made it, just because of the unique title.

[–]gH0o5T 0 points1 point ago

The title is fucking annoying. ಠ_ಠ

[–]TheMarksist 0 points1 point ago

About four of them.

[–]ArletApple 0 points1 point ago

THUNDER-DOME!

[–]panjadotme 0 points1 point ago

We should up-vote ALL of them to the front page!

[–]thehemlock 0 points1 point ago

All of them they are all in the image

[–]caleeko 0 points1 point ago

May the odds be ever in your favor. /Reddit Games.

[–]caleb8d 0 points1 point ago

Probably this guy - AlphaStryk3r, oh yeah he did.

[–]jack12354 0 points1 point ago

And they're off!

[–]phyber_optix 0 points1 point ago

So far it looks like all of them.

[–]IsAStrangeLoop 0 points1 point ago

Who was the fucker that put spoilers in the goddamn title???

[–]dylantrevor 0 points1 point ago

I'd hope it's the with "glitter, lollipops and unicorns! oh my!"

[–]andrewpurpleworm 0 points1 point ago

It looks like you are

[–]Aicx 0 points1 point ago

There can only be one!

[–]tom1059 0 points1 point ago

Apparently you will!

[–]Grandmaofhurt 0 points1 point ago

It's really bad when you can point out the amount of karma whoring and get karma yourself.

Terribly ironic.

[–]Gratlofatic[S] 0 points1 point ago

I actually can't believe this made this past 100 karma. I get on Reddit two seconds ago and my Karma went from 6000 to 6900 and I was like "WHAT"

[–]D2_Smurf 0 points1 point ago

They all made the front page thanks to you

[–]jethroboom 0 points1 point ago

We need a subreddit just to place bets on this shit. I wonder . . .but then again if no one bothered like the rest of us . . . there would be no front page at all.

[–]spazmodic- 0 points1 point ago

…?

[–]sparx483 0 points1 point ago

Did anyone spell it "meat"?

[–]iDoiStuff 0 points1 point ago

How do people do that? If I try reposting something from 8 months ago, it just redirects me to the 8 month old thread..

[–]The_Dovahkiin 0 points1 point ago

Thanks to you all of them get to the front page.

[–]smellycooter 0 points1 point ago

Kovah..

[–]TehHpyfce 0 points1 point ago

Its all karma, man, karma..

[–]Deadly_Sloth 0 points1 point ago

Obviously the one with the most hats.

I hope nobody has said this yet...

[–]Funk_Munki 0 points1 point ago

You obviously.

[–]Rhoso 0 points1 point ago

Oh good, the guy who posted a direct link first.

[–]ninjamuffin 0 points1 point ago

You shall

[–]partyinmypants69 0 points1 point ago

The chosen one

[–]psychedelicpink 0 points1 point ago

You, sir. You.

[–]evil_toad 0 points1 point ago

lets upvote ALL of them

[–]HemanATMOTU 0 points1 point ago

There can be only one!

[–]ryanbazza 0 points1 point ago

The user with the most previous karma of course

[–]ReHashed622 0 points1 point ago

Well played.

[–]Probably_Durnk 0 points1 point ago

All of them apparently.

[–]imagitcha 0 points1 point ago

In the end, there can be only one.

[–]TimeTravelMishap 0 points1 point ago

Thankfully not the one with the spoilers in the fucking title

[–]CrypticPhantasma 0 points1 point ago

AlphaStryk3r has emerged victorious!

[–]Palm7 0 points1 point ago

I like the guy who has two [2:32]'s

[–]darksoldier57 0 points1 point ago

It's like the video itself, but all the ponies and lollipops are replaced by karma. everyone sees in behind their masks.

[–]Shane56 0 points1 point ago

out of that list, AlphaStryk3r

[–]CyaNBlu3 0 points1 point ago

One pyro link to rule them all

[–]macpumperkinz 0 points1 point ago

You I guess.

[–]VGAPixel 0 points1 point ago

weird day to launch this video. sorry Colorado it wasnt intentional.

[–]NIN22 0 points1 point ago

Nice one.

[–]dvdpktt 0 points1 point ago

There's only one solution.

Fight to the death!

[–]rjdabbar 0 points1 point ago

So meta

[–]InterwebCeleb 0 points1 point ago

Luckily not the guy that ruined the whole joke.

[–]XtraRed 0 points1 point ago

You shall!

[–]timstm 0 points1 point ago

You should see r/politics right now. Literally 50 times worse.

EDIT: Because of Obamacare.

[–]Jetpack123 0 points1 point ago

You and this picture obviously

[–]Sandbox47 0 points1 point ago

183|14 is there I suppose.

[–]Joseph_Valdez 0 points1 point ago

The worst one is the guy who actually spoils the video in the title.

[–]0011110000110011 0 points1 point ago

"WHICH ONE DO I UPVOTE??"

[–]KoolAidPenguin 0 points1 point ago

And the winner is... YOU!

[–]Spytie -1 points0 points ago

"A winner is you!"

[–]AnsheShem 0 points1 point ago

I wish you didn't.

[–]shane727 0 points1 point ago

What is with all the excitement over this? Is this just a video showing something in a game that came out years ago? Or is it something more? I just dont understand all the excitement over this video.

[–]Aashkari 0 points1 point ago

A lot of people like to play tf2 for the cartoonish aspect of it. They really enjoy the videos that valve releases of the game. Even I have to admit that I enjoy them a lot. Despite the fact that the game came out a long time ago valve has been slowly churning out these videos for each of the playable classes. "Meet the Pyro" has so much hype because of multiple reasons. It's not only the last class to get a video but their is a lot of mystery around the pyro character ranging from what he/she looks like under the mask to why he/she only mumbles so having an official valve video to sort of clear things up is pretty big.

[–]Saint-Peer 0 points1 point ago

5 years, this video marks the end of the "Meet The Team" series.

[–]RundasMp3 -4 points-3 points ago

Not you.

[–]TheWorldEndsWithCake 8 points9 points ago

Actually, this was on my front page :|

SO META

[–]powernut -1 points0 points ago

I saw a "Meet the Pyro" video. Is that all this hoopla is about? I enjoyed it, but srsly, gettalyfe.

[–]GraveDigger1337 -1 points0 points ago

what are you talking about it's a race for karma the most important thing in the world, it's life or death.

[–]stitchiscool -1 points0 points ago

None downvote all

[–]yourfrigginguide -3 points-2 points ago

I like how alphastryker made it but he was one of the last on this list to post.

[–]Terrible_Karma -1 points0 points ago

Hey, look! A bunch of people posted the same link at the same time! screencaps Let's post this to Reddit and cache in on the hilarity of it!
