PakGamers - Rebirth!

We are proud to present our members with the new and improved PakGamers 2.0 (BE

The entire forum has been migrated to a newer, faster and better supported platform.

We are soft launching with few key features into PG 2.0 BETA. We will test our systems,adjust and fix issues as we go. You can help us by reporting issues by clicking here.

Salient features which include but are not limited to:

1- Chat

As you may have noticed, the classic shoutbox is missing from the forum homepage. This has been replaced with PG Chat.

Packed with many more features, it will make a great modern replacement for the shoutbox.

The new chat allows you to split conversations into different channels. We will have a dedicated channel for users to discuss games, upcoming tech and a general channel for everyday chit-chat. Private conversations between members are also allowed.

For those worried about notifications, especially those who are used to Tapatalk for mobile notifications, the new forum natively supports notifications that will be sent through the browser.

The new forum will also have full support for images, videos, GIFs and audio clips from major platforms like YouTube, Twitch, Facebook, Twitter, Reddit etc.

2- Discord

Discord is now fully integrated with our forums! We will allow sign up and login on the forums through Discord and assign roles in the Discord server based on your usergroups on the forum itself.

Username matching will be enforced from the forums to the Discord server, and to keep things clean, a ban on the forum means a ban on the Discord server as well.

Full feature list:

Spoiler: show

Rooms and channels

Can “follow you” on different pages

Images, Videos, GIFs, Audio Support (from almost all major platforms youtube, twitch, facebook, twitter, reddit, etc)

Dedicated guest room with nickname support

Set chat rules page

Widgets! Rooms, Top chatters, Active users widget


3- Marketplace

PG’s marketplace was one of its most unique features and it has been completely revamped.

All trader feedback has been migrated from the old system, and everyone keeps their marketplace stats, all positive, neutral and negative feedback will remain as is. We will have feedback statistics showing the latest submitted ratings, top traders, and what you could consider the wall of shame with a list of all untrustworthy traders. As usual, ratings will be moderated, and feedback can be reported to marketplace moderators in case of an unfair rating. Please note, that all post & traderscore reporting is now active. We request members to please refrain from posting in threads in case of dubious threads/bad experiences with a particular seller. Report the post instead, with a proper reason, and the respective mod will address it and resolve the situation.

A feature that has been requested for many years is now available. The new marketplace finally allows the sale of both physical and DIGITAL products. This will allow users to sell PSN, Steam, Xbox Live and various other gift cards, as well as offer foreign shipping services from sites like eBay and Amazon. Only trusted sellers will be allowed to sell in this section and they will require prior approval from mods to advertise digital items!

In Phase II of our migration, the marketplace itself will get a host of new features and a completely redesigned UI. Users will be able to specify their location, product prices, payment info, quantity available (for premium sellers) and warranty information in dedicated fields rather than typing them manually in the text box. Thread filters/prefixes will also be available to show only specific ad types (WTB, WTS, WTT).


------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Thank you all for being patient during the downtime. We hope you enjoy the new forums as much as we enjoyed fine-tuning every detail to make it as user-friendly, fresh and modern as possible.

There are almost 3 times the features implemented right now that we have not mentioned in this thread for you to find out, and many large feature upgrades we have in the roadmap. The idea was to get this out in your hands as a MVP as early as possible.

We've come a long way, but we still have far to go with regards to improvements and future additions to this platform. This is platform for gamers, by gamers.

Signing Out,
Team PG

Came here after a very long time and it was a pleasant surprise.
I still remember this forum's early days. From that sapling to a well rooted tree .

    I dont think games have looked any better since 2019 onwards and they are performing worse and worse. Game developers have really dropped the ball.

    So while Playing Control, I found a journal which said that a bathroom is missing in Islamabad Beurue of Control. With Alan Wake and Control seems to be connected worlds. Even our city is in the universe as well. No wonder those Trail 5 and Trail 6 are haunted.
    did you know you can see @NaNoW credited in the game too ? :p

    What is peoples obsession with Battle Royale genre. 6 minutes to find a match, 3 minutes to setup a match, 2 minutes to land, 10 minutes for scavanging maybe 2 3 gunfigts and its over. Multiplayer landscape is looking absolute dogshit.
    I tried playing Apex Legends once. Couldn't find a gun for 5 minutes straight. If I found a gun, I couldn't find the right ammo for it. Got killed fighting with my fists. Uninstalled it the next day.

    I usually stay away from animes. Vinland saga changed the way i look at my life, and my experiences within. I recommend every breathing human being to watch this animated masterpiece at least once fromstart to finish.
    After I watched it, I never felt like i watched a show. It was a friggin journey. I got way too attached to Thorfinn and seeing him grow up and find himself and get rid of all the negativity inside of him was just pure bliss.

    " Both PS5 and Series X have an unlocked frame-rate here, with performance that generally lies between 30fps and 45fps. That makes for a stuttering and inconsistent output in general play, no matter what you are doing at any given time."

    With how great cod warzone has translated onto mobile. Mainstream Consoles have lost its value even further. Maybe console gaming was associated with TVs and how TV is not the primary source of media consumption anymore, consoles will lose its 200 million core audiences even further.
