Well, it's certainly been an interesting week for observing the forums. It's been a long time since FOG chat was this busy, or interesting. All the bannings, then the posts about the bannings, then the posts about the posts about the bannings, excellent. This is making great entertainment, so I'm thinking it was all a set up and there are several posters working for SR, stirring all the trouble up.

Of course, all it would take to stop it is for everyone to calm down and realise it was only a chat room after all, and for people to get back to discussing games, after all, none of this would have happened if everyone was discussing games anyway.

Still, what's done is done, and we can get back to the ol' console wars topics and the game debates, such as 'is Mario Sunshine actually better than Mario 64?' (Edge magazine have already stated their case).

Me? I've been trying to get time on Halo before work, not an easy task in itself, and despite all the time I spent online last week, I haven't got a GAD out of it, but then that goes to show that it's still anybody's game, which can only be a good thing (and well done Meka for increasing your lead even further!

Now all I need is for the postman to deliver my last GAD prize and I'll be happy. I changed from Freekstyle on the Gamecube to Jet Set Radio Future, just to get another game besides Halo on my Xbox. A good choice? I can only wait and see.

oooh. :-) Actually, I didn't think much of it till I gave it more time, now it's the most played game on any of my consoles at the moment. Mind you, that's not saying much!

Exactly you can always rely on SR's Fog Chat for some entertainment.

This morning reading what went on last night was quite fun. ;)

Good choice on the GAD my friend, Freekstyle's meant to be extremely frustrating and almost impossible.

And Halo's crap. ;)
