Hello!

I'm Haxton, a young CompSci student (first year) at Oxford University, despite coming from Poland.

Other than gaming (obviously), my hobbies include archery, reading sci-fi and being a weeaboo (and playing weeaboo games) in my spare time. I came here for a game of Mafia because of Stefl, and figured might as well look around while I'm at it.

My favourite genre are RTSes (especially Supreme Commander - can't wait for Planetary Annihilation), though I don't mind a good shooter (as long as I have someone to play with). I only own a PC, no consoles. I suppose my profile has all those information, but who reads profiles anyway?

That being said, hi all and let's try not to bring each other into despair (?).

Welcome! Hope you enjoy your time here.

P.S. There's a big Autumn sale going on at Steam right now -- might be an RTS worth picking up!

I have an eye for two titles there, might pick them up. Other than that, I have all I need - SoaSE and SupCom. Speaking of which, I'm looking for fellow players for those~

I never introduced myself!

I'm Radishhead, I found this forum while looking for data on Wii sales, and I discovered a community that I wanted to be a part of. I was already looking for a replacement forum to the Official Nintendo Magazine one which I was getting bored of, and this one seemed suitable - I was correct!

Hello I'm new here =)

I'm a theater actress (I do short films too) and I hope to get the role of Christine (Phantom Of The Opera) + Fantine (Les Miserable) in the future. Used to be in the fashion industry until my recent career change.

Born and raised in Australia but I'm half German and Japanese actually.

I play some games in my free time. I remember the first time I played Counterstrike Global Ops, for the first 3 games, all my shots fired missed my enemies, and the only shot that hit someone, hit my team mate in the head and killed him. The game is currently uninstalled.

My other hobbies are fashion and singing. Oh and I'm a great cook too =P



You are the answer to every prayer I've offered.

You are a song, a dream, a whisper, and I don't know how I could have lived without you for as long as I have.

My name is Luis. I'm just a teen, but does it really matter? I joined maybe a month ago, but never really catched on until now. I play computer games, a.k.a. whatever my iMac can handle (Minecraft FTW). But I much prefer to stay gaming on the Xbox 360. And I'm still not sure how to edit my signature. :)

Dude, you are far from the only teen here! But you might be the youngest second to Nintendopie :P

 

To change your sig you need to go to: "gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/settings/preferences/", and then scroll down after clicking "biography".

There used to be an easy way to get there, but for some computers (including mine) the link is invisible (but clickable) when hovering the mouse-pointer over your profile in the upper right corner of the page.
