About pcgamingstandards.com.

PCGamingStandards.com was developed as a solution to problems that repeatedly appear in PC games. Normally when these problems occur it’s up to gamers to find and post fixes through unofficial support channels, inexperienced gamers may have to put up with these problems until patches are released by the developers, sometimes these problems are never addressed.

The short term goals are to provide information on as many games as possible, document which games have problems, to actually find confirmed fixes and link them directly so you have a one stop shop for all your fixes.

The long term goal is to influence developers to create games without these problems in the first place, as the website grows in popularity I will be able to approach developers about issues in their games and hopefully by naming and shaming those who ignore the standards we can encourage better quality development.

PCGamingStandards is a non-profit website and will remain advertisement free for as long as I can afford to run the website on my own means, I don’t believe in making money from other users hard work and links to the original fixes are always supplied, remember to say thank you to anyone who took the time to code or document a solution.

About me.

My name is Sam, I’m a 26 year old IT Professional and avid gamer based in Norwich, UK.

My IT career has taught me many skills, some of which I used to build this website. I started out working as an Assistant Systems administrator doing IT support and day to day maintenance of desktop computers, servers, and the network in general. I soon moved on to become a full Systems Administrator where I worked with SQL databases and did a lot of work with data manipulation and helping on software development projects.

After moving around a bit I settled down in my current job where I run the day to day IT, and also help manage the websites and intranet. It’s in my current job I’ve picked up skills in HTML, ASP.NET, C#, CSS, JavaScript along with previous skills in networking, firewall management and SQL, to produce PCGamingStandards.com. The only work not mine are the graphics kindly supplied by Bladeiai.

If you would like to get in touch please use the contact page and I’ll email you back.
