In 2011, Emre co-founded a gaming channel, Game Society (formerly known as GameSocietyFilms and GameSocietyPimps) with Aaron Yonda and Adam Koralik. Emre, with his co-host Aaron Yonda, provides comedic gaming commentary, often telling stories and epics with crude humor. In many of these videos, Emre engages in friendly banter with Aaron.
Partnering with voice actor Jason Stephens, they have created multiple series with celebrities playing video games including Christopher Walken, Morgan Freeman, former President Obama. These videos are sometimes collectively known as a "Walkenthrough" and are produced for Machinima and machinimarespawn.
In late 2011, Game Society piloted Skyrim For Pimps, an epic tale of zany protagonists marketed as "a very special kind of walkthrough." Emre co-directs and co-produces the series, and is known for the inner voices of all of the protagonists. It has become one of the most popular series on his gaming channel, continuing for six seasons. Emre himself appears in Skyrim For Pimps, as one of the gods.
Following the success of Skyrim For Pimps, they launched Fallout For Pimps. Similar to Skyrim, Fallout 3 provided Game Society a chance to tell an comedic story with its open world interactive gameplay. Like Skyrim For Pimps, Emre voices for all of the inner voices of the protagonists in this series playing across three Fallout games.
Starting in late 2013 but continuing to 2014, Aaron and Emre played Ride to Hell: Retribution, a game that got a 19 out of 100 on Metacritic for the PC version, a user score of 1.3 out of 10 and made Wikipedia's list of video games notable for negative reception. They describe this as the worst game that also almost destroyed the company. See Ride to Hell Retribution.
In the spring of 2014, Emre and Aaron began a new series playing a game called 7 Days to Die, an open world survival game in development. They play the roles of zealot and mad scientist respectively.
In early 2016, Emre returned from a short hiatus and they began a series known as Far Cry Primal For Pimps. Emre plays as an owl perched on top of a prehistoric man named Glug in a prehistoric world.
In early 2017, Adam introduced a game called Yakuza 0 to Aaron and Emre marking the beginning of the series, Yakuza 0 For Pimps. Due to how Emre edited the videos, Adam can be heard educating Aaron and Emre on various topics in the game to the displeasure of the two other members. Emre has complained multiple times not to "talk over" him.
Game Society makes many other videos and series. For more series, see Category:Series.
