!gaming is a community for gaming noobs through gaming aficionados. Unlike !games, we don’t take ourselves quite as serious. Shitposts and memes are welcome.

Our Rules:

1. Keep it civil.


Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only.


2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry.


I should not need to explain this one.


3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.


Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.


4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month.


Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

If someone told me 3 years ago that I'd be a PlayStation hater I would've laughed in their face. Time and time again Sony proves it doesn't case about anything other than making line go up.

Fuck Sony.

Imagine delivering a massive hit in month one and your reward is a pink slip because some executive wanted to optimize a spreadsheet.

Looking forward to playing Ghost of Yõtei on an emulator.

I find it interesting that we say it's a success by units sold and yet we don't know how much it cost to make and how much was spent on advertising. We assume it was successful but we don't actually know.

Anyway, fuck Sony.

I think what matters is how much they spent before selling 3.3 million. We need more quality AA games that don’t break the development bank and are fun to play.

Also, fuck Sony. They’ve gotten way too greedy. Low quality, unrepairable controllers. PSN monthly games being trash while fading the price. Forcing all their developers to make multiplayer online games that nobody wants and then laying everyone off after they inevitably fail.
