The massive Tv programme faking It, is realy cool and definatly worth an hour of your time. The idea: to get the complete opposite to what the challenge expects, give them 3 trainers a lot of moral support, 4 weeks and some money.
Last night showed a homosexual country boy get turned into a Eastend club bouncer, and suceed!

My challenge, is to get a complete bookworm, set him up with an arsenal of games and games magazines, obviously a Maxxx PC with internet connection so he/she could visit Special Reserve for all the best reviews and previews, not to forget the brilliant people on the FoG forum!
His challenge is to play and gain knowledge on the latest consoles and games and hold a stall at the E3 show! can it be done?

I dunno, I read a fair few books and play games (more so the latter but still), so they obviously aren't mututally exclusive. A better idea would be to get an Amish person to become a professional gamer! Or a monk... Or some such similar thing.

Yeah, i watched that faking it thing the other night.

I thought it was quite funny when he got kicked in the nadgers by that girl! And also, after they'd been to the strip club, when he told the others he was gay, they just sat there. I bet they were thinking "Ahh, that explains in then..."
