About Gaming Gauntlet

We are a passionate video game journalism company, providing insightful articles on the latest gaming trends and topics.

In 2007, Sam Schneider, our founder, lost his internet access. With his main source of video game information and forums taken away, he sought out print video game news, only to find there was none! Sam started publishing his own game informer, finding an audience in his local gaming communities. Soon, the Gaming Gauntlet was being dispersed all over the mid-west United States!

A website of our own...

The original Gaming Gauntlet was a print-only publication until 2012. Since then, our team has written articles all over the internet, including Reddit and other forums.

We are moving towards compiling all our articles onto one site, but this takes time! If you can't find an article you've seen in the past, chances are it hasn't been uploaded yet. Check out the Gaming Gauntlet archive, and it may be there!
