This is the question that I get asked most when I first tell people about Specialty Gamer.

Specialty Gamer is a place for game players to talk about games that typically only a very specific audience cares about, and are not very well known or understood by the mainstream. The culture tends to be smaller but typically they are very informed and passionate about their subject. For example: games released by independent publishers, classic game collectors, imports, RPG's, scrolling third person shooter games...

If you just play what's mainstream, you can look thru Specialty Gamer and meet someone that suggests a cool uncommon title similar to your favorite major release you never would have heard of otherwise. That's basically the reason I created Specialty Gamer - an outlet to talk about games that most other people don't care about. If you only want to read about the games even moms and dads know about, you'll easily find a ton of websites that will talk a lot about the same recycled stuff - so there's no reason for me to repeat what's already there.

I made up this little page just to help answer the one question I'm asked most (and maybe a little bit tired of explaining over and over...) so hopefully that covers it. If you want more info, please check the About page or the Biz Prog Log for goals of Special Gamer as a website and a business.

Anything you'd like to say? Feel free to discuss on the Talk Boards.
Thanks,
