!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.

Whoa. A Jumpman reference in the wild. Thank you for reminding me. But I have no idea what that string of characters means. :(

The sound of the player taking a tumble off the stage, followed by a death march, has been forever seared into my brain. Watching my uncle play this, helped little_warp_core understand the limitless potential of (home) video games, above and beyond the likes of crappy Asteroids and Pac-Man ports.
