Ha ha ha!

That sounds like you had a bad experience here at Barcelona... You have to tell us what happened to you exactly with that taxi. Taxis are expensive over here, and a few taxi drivers are a bit annoying, complaining about politics dunring the whole trip and talking to you even if you don't want them to do that, but it seems that your problem was something completely different...

If you come again to Barcelona, let me know it and I will pick you up with my car, to take you to your right destination, I promess!!!

Hiya,

I'm Benji. I'm a freelance gaming journalist, and I've been wiritng for almost a year now. I've been able to work for a bunch of different places, and I'd love to be able to contribute to this one too

(PS- a friend linked me to the Dragon Age 2 review and I almost cried. I LOVE how honest and brutal it was! Good stuff!)

Hi All!

The name's Tim (yes, ANOTHER one), I'm 31 years old, and currently working as a videogame localizer/translator in Osaka, Japan.

I found this site because someone directed me to the brilliant Why Deadly Premonition is The Game of the Year series, and I stayed because I found myself agreeing with a lot of the other reviewers as well, which is rare for me.

Anecdote: when I registered I was asked who the protagonist of FF7 is, and I answered Cloud Strife, which was considered incorrect. Someone might want to fix that. (I assume the last name was not expected)

Looking forward to some good discussions here!

Hey guys (and gals!),

I'm Sam, I hail from the Great White North and I am an aspiring video game writer. While I am a very FPS-oriented sort of gamer (as you will see from some of the reviews I'll be submitting) I do have a pretty diverse collection and enjoy most genres of games.

...This is starting to sound too much like a desperate dating video, so I think I'll end it here.

Hey all. I'm a student in Boston and I am big on PC gaming, though I have a Wii that gets a workout every once in awhile.

Hey all.

Name's Callum. I'm a currently unemployed writer (my fault, really; I haven't exactly tried to find a job, after all) and aspiring game critic. I sort of just stumbled upon this site somehow and took a liking to the content after reading a of the reviews here. When I saw that this site is here to help improve one's reviewing skills, I figured I might as well join in to get some feedback on my work, maybe.

Hope to get to know you all well. See ya around the boards, I suppose.

Thanks.

Hi Guys!

My name is Jonathan, I work with a decent sized company doing low end accounting. I'd like to stay here for a while as a career but down the road I'd like to be a video game developer or be somewhere in the business somehow (probably not as a main source of income, but supplementary for sure).

Ummm as far as my gaming experience, I used to be a big PC gamer, then became a bigtime wow freak but I've since sworn off of all online games since I nearly let wow take over everything in my life haha. I hope that if I decide to write reviews writing only about singleplayer parts of games won't make my reviews suck. Since going away from the PC, I've become more of a console gamer so I've got a 360 and PS3, my roommate has a wii in the basement so I've got all bases covered but I never really touch the wii anyway. So umm...yeah that's me.

Hello everyone,

My name is Jake and I live in NY. I used to read Gamespot all the time but grew tired of its childish writing and community. I was overjoyed to have found a website where games actually get discussed in a mature and sophisticated way. I look forward to reading more of your articles and contributing on the forums.

I'm Levi and 19 years old. Finished one year of college and now I'm trying to get into the coast guard. I play the trombone since I was 10 years old and played it all through school. I have performed at Carnigie Hall in New York with my high school orchestra when I was 17yrs old. Then I performed at the Lincoln Memorial and Slvyian Theater in Washington D.C. when I was 18 with my high school band. I also played in the jazz band in my school life. I'm a big 4x4 truck person and also classic cars and truck guy.

I'm only a PC gamer person at this time and I mostly play racing games. I love those racing games. lol!

I found this site by trying to find online help on a game I just bought.
