> Counter-Strike & DotA on Gamocracy & on Gamocracy
2 of the most ambitious and deepest games of the decade. Made on the PC for the PC and for free by genius designers in their bedrooms.

Global matchmaking for infinite replayability was invented 12 years ago on the PC. I had to quit studying.

dotsMarc and I met at a PC gaming center I ran with friends, he came to play in our CS tournament. I met with Nomalz at the same gaming center, while he was running a gaming webradio. Nomalz met Morgan at a LAN party. dotsMarc met Nomalz and Morgan at LAN parties. I met Morgan at a LAN party. Then, we did plenty of stuff together… at LAN parties. etc.

    The PC players today have some chance to own another game station you know. For me a Video Game is a Video Game, on my PS3 or on my PC. I think you’ll have to reconsider your decision.

    And if the real reason is that you have to validate all the content by yourself… find some CM/Moderators in your fresh’n new community.

    Have a nice eve,

    Actually, this blog post is a little bit cynic. :)

    We love console games and we do play and own some of them. But Gamocracy is a big project and we think it’s a better thing to start small and grow smoothly. If Gamocracy for PC gamer is a success, we will with no doubt open to other platforms. :)

    This is THE justification :). Thanks, because being a fan of Blizzard isn’t a real answer.
