I was trying to think of who was staff and who is regular! Plus, as you are in my friends lists on facebook you know you are my favourite. I just don't want you (or Warhunt) for that matter to leave!
In my new answer for fav staffie - you all are! You all help us and make us feel welcome.
(And surprisingly, I appear in many people's fav people's list...that means a lot - thank-you *sobs with gratitude*)

I'm part of the furniture...
It was hard to pick three. I think (although missed him out on my three...) one of my fave posters is Alfonse. I think I am one of the only few people that understands the dark humour he posts. Add him to the list and I'll let everyone pick another member as well!
Keep it up Al!

Great to see so many replies :) The whole favourite member thing is just abit of fun. Obviously we all get on well on the site, it's just there will be people on the site who you talk to most.
Here are the reasons i chose my 3:
pete_21 - Awesome fellar, posts loads (and especially helps me out getting bargains!)
pb - First member i saw who i was like "Whoa" about, primarily because of his 80+ GAD wins.
Hippyman - Similar interests, and more particularly because of the Small text he writes all the time. Funny guy ;D
People who i've missed out would include the likes of Emmie, who posts awesome reviews, Ghostkiller, for the same reason. And of course, i couldn't miss out all the Freeola Staff Moderators, and also the regular Moderators for keeping the site going.

Ooh Yeah ! :)
Slayer are about my limit,anything more brutal than that is a bit too much for me.Went to see a band called The Haunted a couple of years ago.It was a really small venue,which went absolutely mental.They were a bit too much for me,didn't 'get' them at all.Don't care at all for these new 'metal boy bands' like Bullet For My Valentine or Bring Me The Horizon either.Seen them both and thought they sucked. |

As i said to pete, it's a must buy emmie. It's easily in my top 5 games, maybe top 3. hippyman loves it aswell. Absolute classic. I need to get it on the xbox myself, on the ps2 version, the only flaw is the graphics, which aren't fantastic.

It is definitely in my top ten, mainly due to the great storyline and how fun it is to pick up. I tried out the demo, went out and bought it on the original Xbox as soon as I could and then bought it again on the 360.
Only like Blood Money though, can't seem to get on with the other ones, which is a great shame as I am sure they'd have a great storyline too!
And welcome to the forums keyscool1234, sounds like you'll really fit in if you like Hitman!

Hitman : Blood Money is £10.99 : Here if anyone's after a copy.Seeing as its quite an old game now (may even have been a 360 launch title ?) it still seems to hold its price.Think that may be due to the fact there doesn't seem to be loads of them around ?. |

I got the Triple Hit Pack for the PS2. Hitman 2 and Hitman Contracts are really bad. Blood Money plays completely differently. It's alot smoother. The first two, i didn't even finish the first level because they were that bad. Then again, i had played blood money first (i myself played the demo for the PS2) and in comparison they were bad, so maybe when they were first released they were better? Shows you how good blood money is :D

Post now tidied. Shockingly it appears it was not just the "returning" users who were slightly against the rules.
Moving swiftly on now, no more derogatory comments against other users. Get on with the thread.
