Here in the Search nav, you can.... SEARCH. Start typing a game or gamer, it will autosuggest. Press one to go, or hit Enter to get the full search results.
Below the searchbox, you'll see recent games, gamers, clubs, events, and quests you've visited.
Below that is the full site map with all of the different pages on this platform. Most of these are accessible in the other navs too. But here they're all in one place, if you're into that sort of thing.
Jump in a virtual or IRL event, tournament, or league. Participate in a Quest (a gaming challenge that you can do any time). Channel 3 has something for all skill levels, including gaming-focused daily minigames.
Go to Events below to search for real-time tournaments or other events. Quests will show you offline challenges you can complete at any time.
Channel 3 has a subscription called Turbo that costs $5/month. THIS IS COMPLETELY OPTIONAL. Turbo helps support the platform, and gives you access to special features and the ability to unlock certain prizes.
You may have friends here already, or you may meet your next lifelong squadmate here. Either way, Channel 3 is most fun when you find your people and can have friendly competitions and participate in challenges together.
Below you can navigate all the gamers, clubs, and causes on Channel 3.
If you'd like to create and run a Club, submit an New Club Request.
Whether it's 1 to 2, or 99 to 100, leveling up is the best feeling in the world. On Channel 3, when you participate in quests, when your post gets 1Up'd, when you crush a daily minigame, you get XP. Get 1k XP, and you level up and unlock rewards. Rewards can be custom reaction GIFs, cool backgrounds, or prize wheel spins for IRL gaming gear or in game currency.
Turbo is an optional subscription for superusers. You don't need Turbo to enjoy Channel 3. Turbo users get early access to new features, and are able to unlock more levels in a season.
On Channel 3, seasons last 3 months. They will always run January 1 - April 1, April 1 - July 1, July 1 - October 1, and October 1 - January 1.
Open channel3.gg in Chrome. Click the Install icon in the right side of the address bar:
Click Install when you get this prompt.
After installation, you can pin to the Windows taskbar alongside your other favorite apps.
Open channel3.gg in Safari. It has to be Safari.
Tap the Share button in the middle of the footer.
Tap Add to Home Screen.
Tap Add on the prompt.
BOOM. You're done. iPhones try to act like it's "just a website bookmark" because they want everyone to go through the App Store but really it functions just like an app... Full screen, moveable icon on your home screen. All of it.
Enjoy.

Another quest that just needs a "does not apply" option so I just use another void game (there's 3 in the library... after that we'll have to find a new plan or recycle)
Like many others, I'm not one to play different games based on time of the year.
I'll go with SMW though because platformers is my favourite genre and SMW is the GOAT!

Usually I beat whatever video game(s) I get for Christmas at the start of winter. This year that game was SMRPG remake.
Outside of that, there’s really nothing special outside of my regular rotat...more
First off IPA’s year round for this dude. No I’m not a hipster either.
It doesn’t get very cold here (except today, it’s 27 and windy right now) but if I have to stay inside due to incleme...more
Playing something with a solid storyline while we're in the winter months (which is traditionally when we have the worst weather). I don't feel so bad about spending so much time inside when outside ...more
Games that I didn't have time to play/finish(because of travel baseball) that were released anywhere from Feb to Aug.
*Cue up "I've Been Everywhere" by Johnny Cash*
I’ve never associated a time of a year to playing a specific game. When the time is free i hop on. But i guess i could play more in the winter if it were to snow or rain and can’t do anything outs...more
I don't think I've ever associated my type of gaming with a season or weather. It's currently winter and thanks to the steam deck, I'm going to finally sit and finish Spiderman.
I can’t say I have certain games I play at certain times of the year, but if I had to pick one to only play during winter, it’d be Stardew valley. Instead of having to worry about freezing my butt...more
