Welcome stranger. If you're looking for general gaming, lost gems and obscurities, rare collectibles, or just gamers who know their stuff, then you've come to the right place.

This is GS' host, Vtd speaking and with my partner in crime, Bel Cain The Eternal (my twin bro.), we are proud to be a part of YouTube. Gaming Sanctuary is the amalgamation of years of experience with video games, a rarely seen passion for gaming, and the nagging of friends and peers. We are major collectors and versatile gamers with thousands of games in our possession. This channel will be home to all kinds of videos, from trailer-esque material to samples and more, with decent quality to boot. If you're a gamer or a curious individual and you want to sub/invite us, feel free to do so, but don't sub to us just because somebody else said so.

Formed on February 27th of 2007, GS was just a hobbyist site where we put our gaming knowledge and cross-examinations on a world stage. For better or worse, it has garnered high expectations from many esteemed gaming sites. We did not ask for it, but can only hope to live up to such expectations.

This channel focuses largely on obscure games and games most folks here in the states don't get to witness. As such, while this channel will cover all games, it does not cater to the mainstream crowd. If you don't like video games, that's fine, just don't post about it in our channel. As for everyone else, enjoy the show.

Note: We game for fun and awareness, not for fame or attention.

FAQ:

Q: What do you make your videos with?
A: A Dazzle Platinum, Hypercam, Fraps, Virtual Dub, Camtasia Studio, WMM, and Adobe After Effects. We use the Dazzle w/ Pinnacle Studio for nearly everything. We use HC, CS, WMM, VD and Fraps for PC games and for ocassional editing. We only use AE if we have to. Unless otherwise stated, all videos (sans GG, NGPC and WS) are recorded off real hardware or software. In the case of GG, NGPC and WS, we own/played the original games and systems.

Q: How long have you guys been gaming?
A: For nearly two decades.

Q: Do you like anime?
A: OH YEAH! The Sci-Fi channel introduced me and my bro. to pure anime goodness back in the day, and Toonami made sure that it would remain a part of who we are. We're nerds after all -- Cool nerds, but nerds nonetheless.

Q: What's your favorite system?
A: We don't have brand loyalty. We play whatever we feel like playing. We can only hope others move on as we have, but they're free to do what they want.

Q: What's your favorite/least favorite genre(s)?
A: Rpgs, action games, music/ryhthm and fighting games are our favorites. If -unique- were a genre, we'd choose that too. We can't play too many sports games. We'll go outside if we want to catch a pigskin.

Q: Do you do LPs?
A: Ocassionally, though that isn't our focus. There are tens of thousands of games out there. We'd rather bring them to light first.

Q: You take requests?
A: Not anymore, unless it sounds interesting. There are too many of you and only two of us.

Q: Can you teach me --?
A: While we could tell you Google is your friend, we are willing to share what we know, if time permits. Do not be afraid to ask questions.

Q: How many games/systems do you own?
A: We lost count long ago. We guesstimate that we have 4,000+ w/o duplicates, 6,000+ w/ duplicates for games. We have 30+ different systems (not counting different models). See our playlist for some stuff.

Q: Are you rich?
A: No, just calculating. We know the value of $.

Q: Why do you like Japanese games?
A: Because we like Japan. Maybe we'll visit someday.

Q: What is a gamer?
A: A comprehensive pile of misconceptions and broad generalizations. As such, I cannot define what a gamer is. I only know that some refer to us as true gamers.

NOTE: We do not Sub-4-Sub. S4S takes the passion out of our work and we feel it belittles ourselves and others. A sub we haven't earned in some way is little more than a number. If you're the type who threatens or begs for friends and subs because you can't earn them, don't even come here because you'll waste your valuable time. Thanks for understanding.
