**** this.I'm leaving.
GS treats us like pieces of ****.It's true.They took down the SW Bets Union for NO REASON WHATSOEVER.No warning even.So after 8 months,they magically make up a rule that bans betting.WTF? Also,I put "Nazispot" in my sig and it was modded for being clearly offensive.To who is this offensive? I even asked in ask The Mods and I didn't get an answer.

The community has been so great but the mods are just ****ing power tripping now,so I'm gonna have to leave.I loved you all.

PS:You probably won't get to read this as they'll mod it.

Impressions of every console,PC and handheld.(Except PS3)
Well,I now own every gaming device including a budget gaming PC,so I'll offer you my impressions of them,

PC:I've been gaming on this the most for the last 2 years.The games are great,and the indie games and mods really add something to it's merits.

Impressions of games I bought for it recently:

The Orange Box:This is really good value.I think the Half-Life 2 series is okay,and Portal is good,but Team Fortress 2 is one of the best online games I've ever played.

UT3:Right now,the online community sucks.But the game kicks ass,and with the new patch opening up doors for modders and the bonus pack coming will make it uber-legendary.

Crysis:WOW.The graphics really are eye-popping,and the campaign is enjoyable,but the online is broken and plagued with hackers.

Bioshock:Meh.

World In Conflict:This game is really good,and has the best online system I've had the pleasure of playing.Steam,eat my shorts!

NOTE:The above may sound negative,but that's only because I have to be fair with the other machines.

Wii:Got this at launch,and I played for about 2 weeks,then stopped.Then RE4 came out,then after I finished that,it gathered dust until Christmas.Now I play it nearly every day.

Recent games:

SMG:It's better than Mario 64 in every way,but for some reason I can't seem to sink into it.I don't think it's an AAAA title.9.0 would be fair.

RE:UC:This game kicks ass,and is really fun with the Zapper.

MP3:This game controls like butter,and is awesome.

Link's Crossbow Training:Meh.

360:I played this at the start of the year,then never layed i for the rest of they year.

Recent games:None.

DS:This is truly the greatest handheld ever made.Miles better than the GBA.I haven't bought much new games for it,but I have been playing the games I already have for a LONG time.

Recent games:

More Brain Trainingon't hurt me!

PSP:This is my brothers,and he only got it about a week ago,but he got me MGSO for my birthday for it.

Recent games:

MGSO:Haven't played enough of it to get a real opinion,but so far it's awesome.Too bad the controls aren't the best.

Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas everybody! I'm wondering did anybody else get any presents early? My bro begged me to open his before Christmas,and I got RE:UC,the Wii Zapper and Crysis!

Hook me up with what you got when you get it.
