!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.

  • Analog triggers can only be held to 50%
  • Controller disconnects if you move the cable 0.2 nanometers
  • Sticks drift in random directions and can't move left or right properly
  • Face buttons are squishy and can sometimes get stuck inside forcing you to hold it

Yup, time for a co-op party.

No that’s for the N64! You’re thinking of Metal Gear Solid

Back in the day i had this absolute savage friend who only had 1/4 Gamecube controllers that had the analog stick grip intact, and i remember it being unbearable to play with

All of the PS1 and PS2 controllers I had growing up lost the rubbery coverings of the analogue sticks because they were apparently exactly what my baby brother craved when he was teething

Well, that is not bad then, some laughs can be there, player vs player though? We are talking about possibly rage quit.

The winner gets it to give better opportunity to the rest.

5 bucks says this controller was blasted by overspray from a paint gun

That's just a layer of dust from sitting in the attic for 20 years.

This reminds me, I wish Xbox kept the black and white buttons when they added the shoulder buttons. There have been several times I was playing a game and thought about how useful it would be to have two more face buttons.

Is it actually a cake?

Controllers look like this when they first emerge from the cocoon. They typically harden and gain their distinctive colors after a few hours.
