About

Press Start Co exists to answer one question fast: “What should we play?” Not the best game of the year, not the highest-scoring title on a spec sheet - the right game for yourgroup, tonight, given who's playing, where they are, and what they're on.

Who runs this

I'm Stephen - genuinely into games and, more specifically, into the endless “what should we play tonight?” problem that comes up every time a group wants to play together. I read the official store pages, confirm crossplay and player counts, check current prices, and do the legwork so your group doesn't have to. No lab, no sponsorships, no pretending I've personally run thirty games with a full squad.

That last part matters, so I'll be plain about it: I'm an enthusiast, not a test bench. A lot of “best games” lists imply the writer played everything with a full group. I don't claim that. What I do claim, I verify - crossplay support, player counts, and platform availability come straight from the official store pages, and I link them so you can check for yourself. Where I've genuinely played something, I'll say so in plain first person; where I haven't, the pick rests on cited facts. The two are never blurred.

Why the site is organized by situation

Most game lists are organized by platform or genre. But that's not how the question actually arrives. You don't think “I need a co-op action-adventure” - you think “four of us, three different consoles, tonight, what works?” So the whole site is built around your situation: online, long-distance, party, co-op, crossplay, and free. Pick the one that matches your night and the answer is right there.

The honest limits

We're a brand-new, single-author site. We don't have a review staff, a rating history, or hands-on possession of every game we recommend. We can't honestly imitate the big gaming outlets with their test benches - so we don't try. Our whole approach is transparent, reproducible methodology: verifiable facts, cited sources, live prices, and an honest “skip this” pick on every list. If that sounds like your kind of recommendation, you're in the right place.
