    Degrees, Universities, Skills Needed for Professional Esports

    Hi everyone. Just wondering if anyone has any experience or guidance on studying esports at university or college? Does anyone have any views on the types of course available and which university would be considered the best for this type of study? Many thanks Richard Montgomery

    Info Video Game Forum

    Welcome everyone! After ten years, the previous admin has stepped aside and transferred the Video Game Forums site over to me. I know this site hasn't seen much activity in recent times, but there is a treasure trove of good information on here, especially from the Classic Video Game Consoles...

    Hey, guys! My name is Marc

    I'm 35 years old from Scotland, and been in love with games since I was born, as my dad introduced me to the C64 as an infant and my love grew from there. I love all kinds of games and consoles, but c64, MegaDrive and Ps1 are the ones closest to my heart.

    Browser games

    I've always been into browser games. It's a good way to take a 15 minute break before resuming the grind. I play browser rpg's. What browser games are you folks playing?

    What video games are you currently playing?

    I know that the Xbox One was released four years ago. So I am scratching my head over its game library. I feel that the Xbox 360 had a better game line up. I haven't been impressed yet. So far Cuphead is the best game on the system. Second is RARE replay. I have ordered a copy of Final Fantasy...

    Sega Dreamcast Complete Dreamcast Collection?

    Hey guys! I am thinking about going for a complete dreamcast collection. Not sure if anyone else has tried or is trying, but if you have let me know how it is! Dreamcast was one of my favorite systems at the time of its release and it seems more tangible to complete this set Vs. genesis or...

    Electronic Arts and Star Wars Battlefront II

    Do you think EA will finally ruin themselves with this fiasco? I'm talking about the whole thing with Star Wars Battlefront II where major characters like Darth Vader and Luke Skywalker are locked behind either 15+ hours of playing or $260 paywall on top of paying $80 for the game itself...

    Saturday Morning Super Famicom Marathon!

    (Original Cart, original hardware, on a retro cathode tube TV. The way it was meant to be.) What other way to start a Saturday than to dive into a pile of games? Just going to give here a short burst of thought on each game as I play, I’ll stop, and give impressions. Super Valis IV seems to...

    Will There Ever Be Another Entry In The Console Market?

    NEC, Goldstar / Panasonic, Phillips, Atari, Sega, SNK, etc. once took daring steps into what is now ruled by Sony, Microsoft, and Nintendo. Atari pioneered the video game revolution and made great strides in the genre until their business practices cost them the talent that ended up starting...

    The current state of gaming

    Technology and software are in two totally different places right now. I've been contemplating this every since 3d's rise and fall. At least 50 years we've flirted with 3d technology and its always been the technology's fault until this past effort. Expensive battery powered glasses aside, we...

    Nintendo Switch

    I just preordered a Nintendo switch. I have absolutely no expectations and beyond the Zelda game the launch titles do absolutely nothing for me so I really have no reason other than to appease the fanboy in me. Anyone else picking up one of these? Anything even remotely exciting about the switch?

    Completed Games Going Forward

    A new topic!! Basically, all this topic will consist of is all the games I (or you, if you decide to participate) complete going forward. For 2017, I plan on completed a bunch of series I never really got to completing. I need to finish more games since I have a huge backlog (especially on...

    Yokai Watch

    Anyone played any of these games yet? When I bought my son the actual watch and a few of the medals I assumed it'd be a passing fad. There's a new watch, new medals and two 3ds games for Yokai Watch 2, not to mention another season or so of cartoons. Guess I was wrong. I never got the first 3ds...

    NES Games with Famicom Adapters

    I didn't know this was a thing until I saw a copy of Gyromite sell for $15.00.... apparently theres a dozen or so 5 screw Nintendo games that the first issues used famicom boards with adapters attached. I've seen copies of Pinball, Excite Bike, and Gyromite that have them go for much higher...

    What System do you have the most games for?

    To make this easy I should probably specify physical media only. Digital content would only serve to skew the numbers away from the collectables towards the who has downloaded the most roms or who spent the most money in the eshop. I don't know that I've counted my collection in a long time...

    Steambot Chronicles

    I've been collecting a lot of PlayStation 2 games lately mainly focusing on RPGs I never got to play, specifically targeting Mega Man Legends 2, Rogue Galaxy, and Steambot Chronicles. I loved MM Legends 1 and mml2 is more collectable so even if I hate it it'll be worth money, Rogue is cheap so...

    3d Movies and Games

    I thought with LG et al. pulling out of the 3d tv market games and movies would stop being made in 3d. I haven't seen a 3d game since the ps3 but I know NVidia did a good job at 3d for a while and there were third party drivers that could output 3d with amd inside.. The movie front seems...

    Feelin kinda retro

    The siren call of eBay has lured me in once again. I won a Maniac Mansion for the NES, am bidding on Skitchin' for the Genesis, Rampart for the SNES, Faxanadu for the NES, and Rygar for the NES. I was also looking for a copy of espn extreme games in the long box and some sega cd stuff but I...

    Nintendo Classic Mini

    Anybody else heard of or planning to get this? So far, no one has started pre-orders but I'm definitely going to pick one up as soon as I can. The price is a bit steep in my opinion, especially since you can't add games or play cartridges but it has HDMI output so you'll be able to play these...

    Its yard-sale season again

    I'm excited, this year I've already found something and I've only been out last Friday and Saturday. Friday was a bust, there was a church group fundraiser rummage sale that had a ton of VHS tapes, crappy clothes, and romance novels but nothing game related. I was so bummed I almost didn't go...
