Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })In the realm of the internets, video games seem to be an easy focal point for humor, whether it be the games themselves, the fans of the games, the industry that makes the games, the ads that sell the games, the reception the games get, the memories games give, the emotions that stem from games, the music that accompanies games, the art seen within games, the narrative games give, the political and social issues games present, the lessons learned from games,or the pets we name after characters we have fallen in love with in games. This is a site that flourishes on this very idea of videogame-humor.Game Cola is a site devoted to observing video games in a clever and humorous light. It takes a completely unbiased and honest look into video games and video game culture, and ridicules as much of it as the writers comprehend. This is simply a group of gamers who love playing video games, and enjoy sharing their opinions, sense of humor, and love of gaming with the audience of the internet.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })When the writers aren't talking about video games, they're usually talking about how much they hate each other.From 2002-2005, the site was a updated once a month in a newsletter-like format, having every article written for the site collected and posted onto one single webpage. Because of long load times on bad connections, and simply being a bad idea in general, the site retained the monthly update schedule, but adopted a magazine format, with every individual article getting it's own page. The slow update schedule prevented Game Cola from obtaining a larger fanbase and readership (most people would simply forget the site ever existed). So in June 2009, Game Cola officially released its final issue, and announced plans for a total re-haul of the site in order to obtain a more modern style. That is to say, doing what everyone in the modern age does, and post new articles once they are ready to be published. Since June, the site continues to be on hiatus, with new content in the form of YouTube videos and posts on the site's blog, with a message to the readership every month to remind people that the site is still alive, and is making sure that the new site's launch is absolutely perfect.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_3'); })You can view the website here, Then go tell all your friends. | |

Foregone Conclusion | |
| Game Cola (Website) / int_3bc88a7f | comment |
Foregone Conclusion: Played for laughs with Things Zach Rich Demands to See Before He Dies in 2020. He uses his upcoming death by the hands of THE MOOOOOOOOON PEOPLE to get game developers to do what he wants as a "dying wish". | |

Four-Point Scale | |
| Game Cola (Website) / int_aa5d0c85 | comment |
Four Point Scale: Averted, actually. The site prides itself on attempting to use a rating of five as the absolute average. One of the sites slogans boasts "Seven is above average." Depending on the Writer, it tends to work. | |

Self-Deprecation | |
| Game Cola (Website) / int_c9597a03 | comment |
Self-Deprecation: Somewhat of a Running Gag with the site; writers tend to make fun of the fact that there's more staff members than actual readers of the site. Hopefully the re-design will fix that issue. | |

Cloudcuckoolander: Many of the writers have shades of this, but the best examples would likely be Meteo and Zach. | |

Hostile Show Takeover | |
| Game Cola (Website) / int_cf64a80d | comment |
Hostile Show Takeover: On April Fools' Day 2009, Zach Rich took over Game Cola, changing the site's name to Zach Rich?s Slightly Carbonated Extravaganza for the Hard of Hearing. He then kicked out all of the other writers on the site, and proceeded to explain exactly why he hated every single other person on the site. According to an episode of the podcast, Zach had a lot more planned for the joke, but his computer was swarmed by viruses before he could get any other articles finished in time for April Fools. | |
