Hello!.

Im Rich and I'm 32. Been on a couple of forums (mainly Games TM). I have friends that play golf, play football 5 times a week but I just love videogames so I keep playing them. Only started listening to podcasts in the last 18 months so not really aware of all your priors. I'm not a Gears fan boy by the way :D .

Yeah just his beard! :D . I have a beard and found it bizarre that Epic decided that to show Dom was in pain after Gears 2 he grew a beard. I think the same writers worked on Lost:

What am I doing when posting YouTube videos wrong?

Hi all, I'm Barry a 38 year old gamer from Cornwall. I tend to be more of a reader of forums rather than a poster but am trying to make an effort to be more social. The friendly vibe of the old Gamerdork forum got me wanting to be involved and it's great to see it carried over to hear.

I've always felt very lucky to be a gamer born in the seventies, as it given me a unique chance to see gaming develope from Pong to where we are today, and it's great to share those experiences on here with people of similar ages (and younger) who have the same passion.

Nice to see some familiar names too. Hopefully this forum will take off in a way the CS forum (for whatever reason) never really did.
hey Horace, welcome. I remember you well because you would always trounce me in the Fifa league on GD :lol:
Ha, they were good times! The league was fun.

I've messaged Harbey via XBL and told him about this new forum, would be cool if he started posting. Not sure he's doing much gaming these days, mind...

Look, i've said it before and i'l say it again. The Amiga is far superior to the Atari ST. :)

It's great to have you aboard, Chris. I hope you'll post often.

At least that's two of our minorities quota covered off anyway. Now all we need is some women.
