Bewildered or fascinated by the gaming world? You are in the right place. We offer easy to understand information, advice and comment about video games. We keep technicalities to a miniMom, preferring to talk about how games benefit everyday life.

In this Getting Started section, we will introduce you to the basics of gaming. From suggesting why people play games, helping you choose your first console to building a solid library of games, we take things one step at a time. We want to offer an alternative to the over zealous hard core gaming coverage, as well as the retailer's eulagising about the latest must have product.

Our coverage takes an informational approach. Sometimes compared to the Dummies guides of the videogaming world, we want to close the gap between what you are told on the box and what you actually need to know to make informed decisions. And here in Getting Started Gaming, you will find the same. Simple steps and information that should help you on your way to both understanding and enjoying the video gamin world.

Once you have the basics down, why not join us as we highlight the games we enjoy each week. The Console section then provides one place for all our review and guides on your chosen hardware. Finally, the Genre section helps you discover new types of games, as well as expanding your library of your favourite types of experiences.
