What is CyberGamer?

CyberGamer is a website dedicated to competitive online gaming. Completely free of charge we supply users from PC and console (Xbox360 and PS3) with ladders, leagues, forums, file libraries, galleries and much more. These features allow users to immerse themselves in an online community and compete against others with similar interests.
How did we get started?

CyberGamer.com.au was founded by two gamers, Jeremy "Asterix" Klaosen and James "sn@p!" Burroughs on the 9th of April 2007. We've built the website from the ground up. We do not use any open source software or templates. The site has been designed, developed and is maintained entirely by Jeremy & James.

The 3rd version of our site, released Feb 1st 2010 was a huge overhaul to the entire site and added the PS3 Platform!


You are currently viewing the 4th version of our website, which significantly improved many features and added CyberGamer TV to the website and the girls only section, it was launched 1 year after our 3rd version on Feb 1st 2011.

Initially, our goal was to create a home for the Call of Duty (PC) community in Australia by supplying free services such as leagues, ladders and forums. We soon found that in most cases members of the community had gaming interests outside of the Call of Duty series, and so we soon began implementing support for a variety of games.

With the explosion of traffic and interest CyberGamer is attracting today, our emphasis has somewhat changed since we began. Our efforts are now turned to keeping on top of the gaming scene by continuing to add new support for exciting upcoming titles while maintaining quality support for ageing classics. Our structure of catering for both hardcore and casual gamers is of vital importance to us, we want to continue supplying multiple ladders & leagues to accommodate for both demographics. Finally we want to keep our interface fresh and intuitive with our software unique and powerful.

CyberGamer Europe was launched July 25th 2011, just over 4 years after CG AU was launched.
