"First ever TAD winner...I think..."

Today Brute Force, my GAD came through! YAY!

But not only that - But I also seem to have won a TAD...Yes, you guessed it! A T-Shirt a day! A one off day too im guessing...Printed with the Brute Force logo on the front and a large graphic of the main characters on the back, a T-Shirt was packaged with my game! I am now the ultimate game fashion guru. It smells a bit funny though...Like swimming pools, but I think thats the new ink. Im wearing it anyways though. Quite comfy ;)

I also got a free DVD - The Ultimate Halo Companion DVD. It has really old trailors of Halo for Mac from 1999 on it, some interviews, footage of deleted enamies (Including dinosuars...) and removed levels!

Its a great little package! The ultimate free gift bundle! So thanks SR - Now, everyone else who choose this as their TAD, lets all form a 'T-Shirt' club where only TAD winners can join...And watch the Halo DVD again and again just because we can!

Oh - And I have only played it for about 2 hours in multiplayer and about 20mins in single player but Brute Force is supurb! More than my very high expectations multiplayer wise, where you each control a team of 4 giving commands, in a strange deathmatch come team match! Brilliant! And the single player looks very good too. I will do a review soon when I play it a bit more.

So far...Brute Force=Fantastic. And the T-Shirt and DVD have made my day...

Exactly. Why on earth do you buy a game and then tidy your room?

Sod that.

Whenever I get a game, I give it a good hour or two. More for Nitnendo titles, as they normaly grip me good.

Yo enjoy a really good game I have to sit down and play it for a long period of time. When I just get a new game I tend to want to sort a few things out in my room as I like to keep everything in order etc. I very rarely get a new game and sit down and play it straight away. When my GAD for Zelda arrived I played about 5 minutes and then turned it off. I could tell from the opening and the atmosphere that I was in for a great game. However this didn't make me want to play on at a stupid moment when the true beauty of the game could only be experienced with long periods of play.

Makes perfect sense to me.

Why on earth do you do that?

When I get an excellent and compelling game, a la The Wind Waker, Halo, Morrowind, Metroid Prime etc, I can't pull myself away after just twenty minutes. If I can, it seems to say to me that the game really isn't that good.

After I got my GameCube I went straight on the net. Doesn't mean the game isn't good. So far I haveonly done a tiny bit of Zelda: Wind Waker and no matter how much I want to go back and play it I just haven't been on it since the day after I got it.

How nice for you.

If it was superb, why did you play it for just twenty minutes and then go on the internet?
