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.

Indeed. What's ironic is that the video game industry is one of the few untouched by the economic recession (last I heard), so the adults who read this however many years ago are probably feeling kinda silly now that 100k is quite a real possibility for people working on video games.

WHO'S LAUGHING NOW, DAD?

Actually, I started my career in the video game industry in December of 2004. Great job, Nostradamus! Psh.
