GameFAQs is a popular gaming website that has given gamers the chance to find help (through "FAQs" and "walkthroughs") for their favorite games since November 1995. It was started and is maintained by Jeff "CJayC" Veasey. It has a large database of video games, perhaps one of the most complete in the world. The systems and games range from the 8-bit Atari days to the Next-Gen consoles of today. The huge amount of FAQs, cheat codes, and reviews are all submitted by dedicated gamers just trying to help others with their knowledge. Even the site owner contributes plenty. If you ever have a question on a game or need some extra help or even have something to share, come to GameFAQs and the community will listen to you.
Along with the large database of FAQs, codes, and reviews, it also contains one of the largest message board communities on the web. Every single game on the site has its own board to discuss the game or ask questions or answer them about the game. All FAQ, code, and review contributors automatically get a message board account to waste plenty of time posting at.
GameFAQs Culture
- LUE (Life, The Universe and Everything) - This is probably the most infamous message board on the entire site. Most of its humor comes from other sites (including Something Awful). Because of the amount of questionably offensive material posted on the board (the Terms of Service prohibit "offensive or vulgar material"), this board has become a sign-up board (effective mid-January of this year). Also, it has become the site of many serious (or not) discussions about masturbation and sex in general (usually humorously, such as "y helo thar butsecks"). It is probably the most unique culture on the site.
- Secret Boards - Also, there are a couple of boards that CJayC noted as "secret", including: "Pie", "Jenny" (after the song), and "Semprini".
