    Is gaming more acceptable now?

    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...

    Memes of Gaming (Added)

    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.

    Fond Video Game Memories

    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...

    Does Story Matter in Modern Gaming?

    The more I play modern games, the stranger I feel about their stories. I used to play games primarily for the story, but these days, something feels off. Why do so many of them come across as strange or cringy? Sure, there are exceptions like Mafia, which has a fantastic narrative, but plenty of...

    Games you DON'T like despite it checking the boxes of what you do like.

    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...

    Do you play any games for Christmas?

    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...

    Ideas for Old iPhone

    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...
