    About Rock, Paper, ShotgunRPS is about PC gaming – all of PC gaming, rather than just one of the weird and wonderful niches most other PC-centric sites confine themselves to. It’s written by four of Britain’s top games journalists, and one of America’s, and it aims to cover everything from the latest breaking stories about the biggest releases to esoterica from the format’s obscurest peninsulas.To contact us, just click… no, wait. Wait. Before you send that press release about your new iPhone game or link to a dog playing the Zelda theme tune on a noseflute, please remember that we are a PC-only site. That’s PC only. P.C. O.N.L.Y. Which format? … That’s right, PC!Also: a note on Kickstarter projects. If there isn’t concrete proof that your game will exist and do more or less what it promises too, it’s unlikely that we’ll post about it – we have to be very careful about seeming to encourage our readers to give money to something that may not come to pass. So before you contact us, make sure you have at the very least a trailer, and ideally something playable.Also also: due to the sheer volume of email we receive these days, we can’t reply to, play or post about everything we’re alerted to. It’s simply impossible. We do what we can, but we are mere mortals. Amazing mortals, but mortals nonetheless. So don’t take it personally if you don’t hear from us. (Quick tip: it’s a good idea to direct your email to the writer you think is most suited to your game, and briefly say why.)Oh – and if you want a reply, don’t Twitter us or private message us on the forum. Email us. Just like old times!
