Exploration Gaming: An examination of gaming worlds
We are Exploration Gaming, a video games website that delves deep into the worlds gaming has brought to us. At Exploration Gaming, our goal is to show you the wonders that game designers create for us in our favorite video games. We aim to explore the world inside of video games and the many aspects that make them special to us. From a simple scene that strikes a certain chord, to getting up close and personal with the worlds and their details, and even some of our fondest memories, we will show you what we discover on our explorations. For some people, a game is just a game. But we want you to see past that, we want you to see the worlds that these games create, gamer and non-gamer alike. We also would like for you to join us, write and share your own views, show us your own journeys and what they mean to you. So put on your explorer hats, and join us for the ride!
At exploration gaming, we write about many things
- Reviews, where we share our opinions on newer games
- Editorials, this is where our think pieces are
- Memory Lane, an exploration of our own gaming past
Who are we?
It all started when we were younger, an age when we were smitten by video games. We delved into these games and discovered worlds that gave us something wonderful and creative, and it fascinated us, and as we grew up that appreciation only grew. To show this appreciation we created Exploration Gaming, a website that examines the many aspects of games. We write now to show that love, and we want to spread it to everyone, gamer and non-gamer alike. We hope you join us, and we hope you are emboldened to write about your own adventures or memories with us here at Exploration Gaming.

Chris Suursoo
Chris Suursoo is an up and coming web designer, a freelance games journalist, and all around gamer. Currently he is working on creating a gaming website that will examine different aspects of the games, and why we love them so much. This blog is a companion piece to that website, and is a pictorial look at the games we play.
It started when his father bought a Commodore 64, and it only grew from there. After cutting his teeth on classics like Street Fighter II and Doom II, he bought his first games console, a brand new PlayStation 1. A little while later he got the games that truly hooked him, Resident Evil, and Metal Gear Solid. These were the games that grew a fascination with exploration and storytelling, the ones that showed games were capable of telling mature stories. From there, Chris’s love for games only deepened as he delved deeper and deeper into the world of gaming.
Currently he is in love with the new Resident Evil 7, and is pining for Silent Hill to make a return. He has a deep fondness for the classics of his youth, and still takes trips back to those wells on a constant basis.
