!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.

Revisionist history. We were not living in harmony.
The Dreamcast lovers cried into their Shen Mue.
Game Cube fans quietly played Smash bros.
PC Master Race was still arguing about sound cards and telling Gabe to fuck off with this Steam Always On Bullshit.
For most of the gaming industry, you were either PS or Xbox. There was no unity.
And Sony was laughing at Microsoft for entering the console business...while simultaneously laughing at Nintendo for underestimating them.
How the tables would turn a generation later.
And turn again another generation later.
