I’ve always had a fascination with myths, above all gaming ones. Share your favourites, ones you believe, ones you don’t, ones that turned out to be true, etc. Personally I believed in lavender town syndrome; if you’re unfamiliar it’s a hoax that the lavender town song had a frequency that only...

Been looking for some examples of this. Bonus points, if we're talking about anything from the 90's.

I think mine would be the base of Dark Cloud with Dark Souls combat, Fallout 4 settlement building/management, The Witcher 3 open world zones, Diablo II inventory, and a story/worldbuilding written by Michael Kirkbride. What about yours?

Hello! I wanted to to let people know about a project I've been working on for the last four month called 8bitedge. I've been developing an easy way to identify only the retro games I'm interested in on eBay. I started with a spreadsheet, then moved onto a desktop application I wrote that...

I have never watched the series and at this point I never will because quite frankly I don't have the time to sit through 1000+ chapters when even a 13 chapters one takes me about a week, so here is the question: Which games do I play if I want to understand most of the series without ever...

10/10 would totally invade Swamp to just get an Autograph.

one of the first characters that comes to mind when I hear the phrase "Which weapons in video games are not useful in real life?" I always remember cloud's

Growing up in the ’90s, I was cautious about bringing up video games with other kids. Plenty of us played, but talking about it at school could get you labeled a nerd. It was like watching Pokémon or Dragon Ball Z—lots of kids did it, but you had to pretend you didn’t. These days, social norms...

Keep it clean. Keep it civil. Have a good time. I'll start. Added another I made, there's a couple Megaman-related memes I did not make. This Megaman X Meme inspired me to go on to make one in the same format with several other series.

I was just talking with a friend, and the subject of Local TV Channels got brought up, which reminded me of my young preteen days when I used to stay up late at night to watch something unlike any of you have probably ever heard of. Keep in mind, this is before Youtube or even Google was a...

There's a pair of French PC games for the Apple II that are both contenders for the first game to feature an LGBT+ character and they both were released in 1985. First we have Le crime du parking which is a murder mystery about a couple of detectives who find a woman dead in a shopping cart in a...

Club PlayStation (renamed as Club Play) is the name of a series of magazines that were sold in Argentina about PlayStation games, being the first numbers (the most popular ones) evidently about PSone and some PS2 games. The content of these magazines were cheats (trucos = tricks), guides...

Hey everyone! I'm looking for a survival horror game I can play through in one night. My parents are out, and I'm taking advantage of the holiday break to have a horror gaming night! I don't get much time to play anymore between work and school, so this is a real treat for me. Note1: In...

How do you organize your game screenshot collection? What is your oldest game photo? Post other thoughts about photos of game screens to commemorate an achievement.

Ever come across that game or game series that embodies so much of what you love that you in turn should totally be into them but when reality hits they fall flat and you just can't bother. For me, everything Mega Man. It checks nearly all the boxes for me but once I start I just can't get...

Mine would be, Metroid prime 4, Hollow knight silksong, Doom the dark ages, Xenoblade chronicles x Definitive edition, The switch port of Donkey kong country returns And many more but I don't want to make this too long so. I'm really interested to hear your Most anticipated games

Yeah I'm on fire today. Ideas, ideas, ideas! Anyway, I remember a little anecdote from my childhood and decided to make a thread out of it. In a galaxy far away... nah, seriously, what happened is at one point in the past during my childhood I rented Sword of Sodan. Having loved Golden Axe, I...

Whether it's a game that focuses on Christmas, has a Christmas themed level or possibly a game that just has snow in it, do you play any games like that for Christmas or during the month of December? I never have actually, but one level that's really Christmasy is Banjo-Kazooie's Freezeezy...

I have an iPhone 5S I don’t use that still has battery and works. However, Apple doesn’t release updates anymore and most emulation apps don’t run on operating systems that old. I thought I could use it just for gaming, but I’ve run into these problems. So I thought I would ask you for ideas...

Remember the white blinking guy? Well, this is him now. Cloth Map was a project from Drew Scanlon, mostly known from Giant Bomb (or the meme), where he would travel around the world to get immersed into different cultures and their relationships with video games. Unfortunately, the last update...
