I know you use verb stem+始める when you want to indicate that something started, so would this sentence be correct?
特にゲームをする始めます。

2A verb is just the action and a verb stem is for conjugating a verb to polite speech or casual etc Oh wait, suru is not a stem loll so it is shi then. – GasterSans Feb 24 '16 at 07:46

The conjugation before verb is 連用形(masu-form), so your sentence is incorrect. ゲームをし始めます is correct. For example, "start walking" is 歩き始める. 歩き is 連用形 of a verb 歩く.
In addition, 特に is unnatural in this sentence.

Thank you for replying. I wanted to say especially playing at the start of the game. That's why I thought I could use tokuni. – GasterSans Feb 24 '16 at 07:57
