Biggest gaming forum?

[NoxNoctum]

As in the one with the most traffic? Just curious, I gotta ask a question and want a LOT of answers. Doesn't need to be PC only but it can't be console only.

Probably something like IGN or Gamespot

Although Edge Online is generally busy and also has people who aren't too stupid

Something awful has WAY more threads and posts, but the Steam forums has far more registered users.

Well, what is the question?

 

[Lt_Kettch]

Wait, there are other forums than these?

Something Awful is also not just gaming, or it wasn't, last I knew. It's full of a lot of just general goonery as well.

And you have to pay for a forum account, too.


(Hope I remember my password and u/n ... I've had an account since probably 2001-2002, but haven't used it in probably 4 or 5 years.)

Steamforums, facepunch, SA and the pennyarcade forums are some of the largest for gaming I think.

Pogo.com has 13 million registered users.

Pogo.com has 13 million registered users.

That will be a real bugger to moderate.

Something Awful is pretty great once you get past the whole :10bux: thing. Not the answer you're looking for but I have to chime in and give some support for SA.
