I know there are gamers here - I've been one since the start from the 70s. Anyway, I'm not a huge FPS fan (CounterStrike being my fav), but the new Star Wars: Republic Commando is pretty damn awesome. What it does is advance the genre by upping the team/lead aspect. If you're into this stuff, it's definitely worth checking out the demo. A while back I saw previews at a game show and the demo is solid.I looked and we don't have a general non-poker forum - like a "kitchen sink" for topics that are NOT poker related. At this point, we do have a community of sorts here and we all have lives and interests outside of poker. Then again I should probably post this request in "Support".

I used to be really big into TFC (Half-Life game), but just sort of stopped...I was playing like 4 hours a day, everyday. It became very addictive.

Actually though, there is an "Off-topic" forum, labelled as such. Its right above "Online Poker".Coincidentally, there is a thread on this topic in there, because I know I remember replying to something like this within the past few days or so.

Yep! I'm an idiot. The moderator should move this over to the "off-topic" forum.

Woo Hoo a thread I started got linked too. Ah my online journey is now complete 8) On a side note I might have to pick up the Star Wars game you mentioned. I still have a bunch of PS2 games I need to finish, GTA San Andreas, Nascar 2005, Navy Seals 2 (got it for $20, good game for that price), plus I want to get that mercenaries game and Metal Gear 3. As far as PC goes I need to get to the store to see waht's out.Duff

I need to finish GTA: SA as well. For some reason I played most of the way through it (did the missions in all 3 cities and now its back to the final missions in Los Santos) but then never got around to finishing it.Metal Gear 3 is great btw, you should definitely get it when you can; its been eating up a lot of my time recently (haven't beaten it yet although I've got to be getting close to the end) and its a lot of fun.
