!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.

Those are new games, right? Okay I actually looked. That article is probably bullshit.

They're only counting triple-A games and they're including sports games. Who the hell is actually buying sports games? It's the same game every year with nothing new really.

I don't believe that games like Elden ring, mario kart or Jedi survivor aren't on the top of every chart either.

I just kinds skimmed the article, did they count steam sales? mom-and-pop game stores that sell older games?
