Does 'gam mak' mean Game Make?
Because that's what I feel like doing now after watching the gorgeous latest Final Fantasy XV trailer.

I'm pretty sure that it does... though I've been curious about its origin...

And FF15 does look very pretty. And sound pretty. Oh Yoko Shimomura......

Gam mak is in fact local slang for "game make".

Why? No, seriously when did that start? I know that is what it means, but I really would like the origin moment. If anyone can remember.
Not sure. I think someone wrote it wrong and it was adopted as a running joke that just became 'a thing'.


What I am thinking about now? How much I hate YT and Google. Fucking hell! I've over 400 videos, a lot of them almost an hour long, and suddenly I'm not allowed to upload anything over 10 minutes because I don't have a mobile to 'verify' my already (years ago) verified account! Ugh!

Double UGH!

I even stayed up late waiting for the video to upload and they only tell me this shit after over 2 hours of it loading. UGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGH!!!

I'm going to bed. :<

Nothing reveals Humanity so well as the games it plays. A game of betrayal, where the most suspicious person is brutally murdered? How savage.

I am now torn between wanting to watch a let's play by Liberty and not wanting to know what anyone on this website sounds like.

Ignore. Just a double post due to my inability to operate this newfangled technology.

It's Halloween. I made a thing.

Something about hot chocolate and popcorn, but the MP3 can't be quoted without the entire quote messing up.
Hot chocolate does sound good. Popcorn does not. Ugh. Even the smell of it makes me want to vomit. Mostly because I did some projectile puking after eating popcorn during one of the LotR movies.

AND on top of that, I made a double post, too........

I think it was NewBlack who coined the term. (Link) This is the oldest example I could find of him using it, but I'm not sure if it was the first.

Edit: If it wasn't NewBlack who first came up with the term, at the very least I'm sure it was him who made it popular ever since then. =P
I keep trying to change my profile picture and Featured Game but it keeps giving me an error AAAAAAAAAAARGH


I really need to get more games under my belt ._.

It's older than that.

Thanks alterego, I didn't expect anyone to actually go and look, just see if they could recollect. I appreciate it.

Max & Infection, I agree it probably is older, but this is currently the earliest found, and I do like NB's comment.

Though a quick google found makgam.com, which was registered in May 2010. So we may have co-opted it from elsewhere.
