GamingLives is a portal for likeminded individuals to express their enthusiasm for gaming, and the effect that it has on them on a personal level.  There are no roots in the gaming industry, no particular leanings or developers that have to be kept on side, and nobody to answer to, so this impartiality will serve to provide a sounding board without obligatory satiation.  Put simply, GamingLives is a glimpse into the minds of individuals who spend a portion of their lives either playing games or thinking about games.

While there will be a core group of writers, we openly invite anyone to submit their work to us for inclusion on the site.  All of the core writers have gamed together, spent time together and, while we are still small in number, we already have a strong sense of community.  We have no preferences towards a particular console, platform or genre so feel free to submit anything gaming related.  More information can be found here on our submissions page.

After much deliberation, we have introduced a community forum.  Thanks to Ben for not only installing and configuring everything so quickly and efficiently, but for also including that all-important aspect of gaming… the competitive edge!  The Arcade is flooded with dinky little games and community high score tables as well as tournaments.  Problem is… most of us can’t get anything done because the games are so bloody addictive!
