This forum is for the intelligent discussion of games of any type, from any platform including hand helds, and from any era past, present or future. I say intelligent because fanboys can go to www.gamefaqs.com and flame away there, here bashing Nintendo for being 'kiddy', consoles for being retarded, or PC owners for being geeks will not tolerated. The same applies to games, playing Mario does not make someone a 5 year old idiot. This does not mean you have to like everything, just be rational, polite and most importantly give reasons. MTW sux0rs is not what we are looking for, MTW is not a good game because it is unnecessarily complex to learn and does not provide enough in-game information is fine. Obviously there will be disagreements in opinion but so long as they are kept civil there is no problem - I'll say it again this is not gamefaqs
So reviews, tips, discussion, requests for help, anticipation, demo and patch releases, and anything else you can think of all are acceptable. The only games that don't really belong here are Shogun, medieval, and Rome total wars as they have their own forums. If they appear here it should be a more critical thing (e.g. why was MTWs documentation perceived to be worse than STWS? How can this be improved for RTW?) rather than requests for help or general discussion. Do try to keep everything on one game in one topic, having several topics on the same game is redundant and will create clutter.
Please try to keep all technical stuff to the apothecary, or to the hardware forum. Those are the designated tech areas and any tech support topics will be moved.
We are hoping to attract some game developers, regardless of what company they work for they will be welcome. I probably don't need to say be nice to the devs. No need to suck up but don't get personal when criticising a game, it is unlikely that the person you are talking to was personally responsible for releasing the game too early or whatever.
Abandonware, ROMs and emulators
No links to abandonware please. Unless the copyright holders themselves release the game for download it still counts as piracy, even if the game is very old. Likewise no links to ROMs or emulators.
Language
I'd like to remind everyone of the org's language policy. Strictly no swearing allowed. No combinations of letters and asterixes allowed either; the word must be entirely blotted out. To give an example using the org's favoruite word (gah!) it must be ***!, and not g*h!
Spoilers
The forum has a set of spoiler tags. Please use them if posting information which could harm someone's enjoyment of the game, such as details of the ending. The tags are [spoil ] and [/spoil ] just remove the space before the final brackets.
