Oh Nooo...What Happened to PG?

Well after taking advice from the community, long discussions with Team PG and trying to refocus our strategy, we have restructured PakGamers.

It is now flatter, leaner and more optimized. We wanted to make our forum more user friendly by putting less clicks when navigating your way around PakGamers.

That being said, something of utmost importance was to refocus our attention to some particular sections, thus they have been moved into more prominent position.

This is why Gaming and Hardware are the first two things *along with larger shoutbox, that you are going to see now.

Right below that is PG Lounge where we expect most of you to just hangout for all other stuff.

Useful forums such as marketplace and E-Mall have been left intact while giving them more space on the main homepage.

Forums which were too specialized and not core to our strategy have been turned into subsections (i.e fun room), some have been merged - (Jobs and Career / Education and academics is now ONE i.e Education and Career and moved into Chitchat) - and some sections have been removed for now i.e Automobile section will become a sticky thread in ChitChat

I am putting a draft version of the new look we went for below. We have made many small and cool changes and a more logical ordering.

So as a community please help the mods finding useful and relevant stuff after the merger, since some of the threads will be not in the right place.

Take care and would love to hear your feedback !


This might not be 100% accurate but should be good enough. If you have any trouble finding something just pm a MOD/GM.

That's a good change :), looks more like a gaming forum now. Still waiting for the last post section of the hardware zone to be fixed :p

now this can be called a pure gaming forum but it will take some time to get used to these changes

Great work NaNoW! Gaming is the focus of this community, and as such its relevant sections should be prominently displayed at the top as they are now. (y)

Great changes. Really appreciated. While we're at it, here's some feedback:

I think we need a new Gaming Central banner; one that has more recent games and not really old ones. The new one can have more recent games (or upcoming games?) like Uncharted 4, Breath of the Wild, Horizon, Overwatch, etc.

The small Xbox, PS and Nintendo images can be replaced with their respective logos, since the PS Hub has a picture of the old model of the PS4 and the Vita is practically dead to many people here. We'll have the Xbox Scorpio coming out soon, so the Xbox Hub picture will be outdated too. The Switch is now out so the Wii U with the Nintendo Hub is also outdated. To counter stuff like this, I think we should change the pictures to the respective logos of each company.

And just when I was getting used to the old structure...

but hey, the new structure looks fine enough.

Also, if I may ask, can we make suggestions regarding the structure, or color, or e.t.c. (you get the gist) of the forums?

    Score 1 for game pass. I wouldn't pay full price for this at retail either.

    Just downloaded my first legit digital PC game on GoG at a discount of $8: Two Point Hospital. The same team behind Theme Hospital Two Point Studios now part of Sega. And I am having more fun than most recent AAA games except of course BG3.

    Still, I don't like either Sony or Microsoft as they are focusing more on corporate greed than delighting customers. PC gaming is best of gaming and worth every penny.

    PC Gamer score of 58/100 for Hellblade 2??? Is it really worse than Gollum that was 64/100? Microsoft games can't even come close to high scores of Sony exclusives apparently.

    About the Microsoft (and Sony) debate, I feel both have become too greedy and losing their minds over corporate greed. Personally, I will never buy any console next gen and switch to PC gaming where democracy reins.
