Hello everyone!

Hello everyone,

newest recruit BobElHat reporting for duty! I'm from sunny Sheffield, a Yorkshireman born and bred though I did live in London for a few years. I'm 33, so almost senile and ready for retirement. Currently a victim of the recession but I've been accepted for a job with the civil service, which should materialise some time in the next few months. Yes, months - they take forever with their recruitment. Having been made redundant twice in the past two years I figured working at the Jobcentre would be a nice safe growth industry!

I've been gaming since the days of the Spectrum and on-line FPS since Quake 3. Favourite game of all time must have been Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory. I played that for years and could do all the maps blindfolded. KZ2 is the closest I've come to ET since I switched from PC to Mac + PS3. I know there's ET:Quake Wars, but apparently not many people play. Played a lot of CoD:MW but have hardly touched it since KZ2 came out. A bit of RSV2, Resistance 2 and SOCOM too, but none grabbed me in the same way as KZ2. Raced a lot of GT5p, but I'm bored of the limited selection of tracks now and waiting for GT5 to come out. I defect to a friend's 360 to play GRAW2 most Tuesdays.

Hope to see you all on-line soon! I should be on this afternoon after the Grand Prix has finished.

Hey Bob! Welcome to VoD I hope you enjoy your stay here dude Don't forget to add me with Prophet_Trio.. so maybe we could have a number of games together in the future. And yep the recession is quite awfull, hopefully it'll get better in the few months to come.. but anyhow welcome again to VoD and we usually hang out under the home page.. on the chat box.. so don't be shy! and say hallo to everyone

I feel the same way about KZ2. I also understand that’s it’s natural for interest to lose out in things, but I love everything about this game. I've ordered and played Killzone Liberation on the PSP, had a custom Killzone t-shirt made and even have framed Killzone PS2 poster hanging on my wall. I’ve played KZ2 everyday at a minimum of three hours since March 2 and will make up any reason to still keep on playing. My interest is as strong as ever, what makes it tough is the weather in Germany has been fantastic lately so it’s a hard to stay inside and play.

Yo Bob,

I'm currently a victim off the recession aswell, made redundant 4 weeks ago and made homeless 2 weeks ago so I'm currently suffering lol. Its a load of balls ain't it? Atleast you got something sorted, welcome to the clan in the short time I've been here its a great bunch of guys and I'm sure you'll settle.

Good call on the switching from PC to Mac + PS3 I did exactly the same thing and havn't looked back. Apple have seriously got it right at the moment and the Mac is leading the way

Lets get out there
