!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.

Almost 90 percent of classic games are ‘critically endangered,’ say archivists (www.theverge.com)

Which is strange because I find older games easier to play as they don’t require any sort of internet connection or mandatory patches. The entire complete and finished game is on the disc/cartridge.

It’s modern games (post 2010) that will become the problem in future as more and more of them only contain a small portion of the game on the disc and the rest must be downloaded.

I'm surprised no one has made a crt filter to get the old feel on modern tvs, it seems like an easy solution.

There are various filters that try, yet I also wish there were successful ones. If there are and I'm not aware of them, I'd love to know some very good ones.
