Gaming Heroes

[nakamura]

rmoxon falls into the 'accidental humour' category.

[Kit]

Wools - I think he is the absolute best at breaking down games; whats wrong/ what's right, always seems spot on
Shakey - Resi historian. Seems to have a doctorate in survival horror.
FSW - Metal Gear/Steam/future purchases - the mystic of bordersdown
Naka - Retro. Guy knows his retro games.
bebop avatar guy - S3M - has odd factoids about seemingly every game I really like


A poster I wish would post more is Matt/Chain. Seemed good at explaining the more technical aspects for the layman.

Weird Japanese **** - Briareos Kerensky, Importaku

hehe xD I always have a read or watch a trailer they post even if it's a genre I'm rarely interested in. Nearly all of the stuff importaku plays I literally have no idea what the hell is going at all. ;p

Bebop avatar guy S3M
Kit

Aw, that is very kind. Crap old-ish pc shooters nobody cares about would be my chosen field on mastermind. ;p

Kryss : Celibacy advice.
Prinnysquad : Real Ale.
Ikobo : How to be a real man.

One of the great things about this place is the broad spread of views. I get a lot out of trawling through the first play threads and seeing just who liked or disliked what elements, especially if I'm only catching up with a game that has been out for a good while (which is common for me these days). So I like the variety of views rather than looking to core experts (although no doubt we have a few of those, especially when it comes to gaming history).

You're all heroes to me, every last one of you. Except possibly those I have on ignore. Oh, what the hell, you ignories are heroes too.

[nakamura]

I actually have nobody on ignore in here. A credit to the forum I think.

[Colin]

I don't even have the people I really dislike on ignore, how else would I know if they'd gone far enough that I could ban them?

[MisterBubbles]

[Charlie]

There are many fountains of gaming knowledge on these boards. I don't really have favourites though.

[dataDave]

John, Steve, Richard, Paul, Matt, Shawn... Too many to mention.

[kryss]

Kryss : Celibacy advice.

Now I'm feeling happier about myself! At least there's one thing I know.

[wakka]

Sketcz for breadth of knowledge of obscure games. Even though I always seem to argue with ya haha.

CrazyTaxiNext for the latest news, charts and commentary on it.

Lyris - this man knows EVERYTHING about televisions.

DoggThang for his nuanced opinions.

[briareos_kerensky]

Johnny and importaku - no, really, they get the weirdest JPN things.
kryss - for the patience on all the Japanese language question I asked.
teddymeow - Miku dedication...I'm not really into Vocaloids and fail to see the character appeal.
Essentially everyone posting in the retro forum - I wish to have their dedication.

Anyway, it's not a RPG unless I say so :P

[Brad]

Sony - Daryl
Microsoft - Boris
Photos - Yakumo
Things that make me happy, general voice of reason - dogg thang
Everybody else - just everything.

Now I'll continue the derailment. I love the fact that there are a number of people here who can, and often do, cause me to change my thinking on things. This place isn't even about games for me at the moment although I do think that once I've moved and settled back down then I'll be back gaming with a vengeance! Thanks to everyone. I do actually have one person on my ignore list but reading all this has made me feel bad about that so I'm gonna take them off the list right now.

For N64 Time Travel: noobish hat

Ah, man.

Aside from a few people who I disagree with, I trust so many of you guys & girls on here that I can't name you all. There's a few who tie in perfectly with my views of gaming, almost everyone in the Retro folder and a metric tonne of you all who contribute in the First Play thread.

Boardersdown is such a great hive of discussion and opinion, I can't picture myself calling anywhere else my online home.
