how many of you guys would be in favor of a sub forum to discuss video games?

I would be :) - all lumped in to one section though - not separate for each system...

everyone already seems to think that our main page is clustered....so I think that linking it all in to one is a better option

I like video games and all, but we already have enough sections that rarely get used. I think video games would just be another one. Do we really have enough video game threads that we need a section for it? I say just use the cafe for video game stuff, since its pretty much a rarity here.

while i'm not a big gamer I wouldn't mind seeing a section where experienced guys talk about the games that, apparently, are very fun. It may cause me to be a bit more open minded and play some games besides NCAA Football and Madden for PS2. well i do have 2 UFC games tooo but they aren't that great. On the other hand, if i start playing video games all day........

well the 360 just got a price drop $199 for the arcade with hdmi,comes with a memory card,wireless controller,arcade disc with 5 games,doesnt come with a head set for online play,but those can be had pretty cheap, but i know you can pick up a used hd from gamestop for $59 i think it is,i dont know if you have gamestops in uk but eb games is basically the same thing if you have those.oh and i would buy the 360 over the ps3 anyday its cheaper now and has a much broader library of games,and more people have those to play online with

I doubt it. We get like one video game thread a month. Maybe now that we have an actual section, there will be more talk.

i'm tending to agree w/ you. I think maybe a new post will pop up here and there if a member has a question regarding a game. I dont know how often new games come out but i cant imagine that it will take up a bunch of time or posts.
