Every person must admit they love to play a game here or there, especially these days with the amount of interaction game play has (internet, tilt sensing controllers). Donkey Gamer are independent people from Australia and UK who simply like to talk, write and play games.
About Donkey Gamer from their website
We are a bunch of people from Australia and the UK that love gaming, but are sick of the typical news stories; they are good don't get us wrong, but fail in pointing out the lighter side and the memories associated with gaming. While we often take the piss out of anything we can in games, we realise that a big chunk of our childhood memories are older games, and now that we are "old" we can also see another side.
It started as an idea to highlight areas of gaming that made us go "wtf!?". For example, why are there watermelons in a missile silo? Originally the project was called "Gamedero" but so not to limit us to just an Aussie audience, it was decided that Donkeygamer would be a more appropriate name.
The team is diverse, both in tastes and writing styles, which works well to bring a new level of satire to gaming websites. We hope to prove that 'non-gaming' aspects of gaming can also be worth talking about.
I've found out a fair bit of gaming info from this site, on one occasion I found out a bit too late (had already brought the game), so I hope you all enjoy what these guys have to offer. In the mean time I'm going to play a bit of Guitar Hero III with my fiance and mate Thuan.
