Just wanted to say hi. Just got my first console since N64. Kinda strange since I've been working in the gaming industry for 7 years, but I've been mostly a PC Gamer.

Played DOA4 for my first time last night. Damn I suck at those fighting games. Just a button masher. Tried to play online, but that didn't go to well. Got my arse kicked fast. I just ordered Madden 07, NBA Live 07 and some racing games . Maybe I'll be better at those type of games.

You worked in the industry? Could you say where, or at least what position you hold/held? I'd like to talk with you a bit sometime about that.

No secrets here.

Kronos Digital Entertainment ( 2000 - 2004 ) - Systems Administrator
Climax Group, Inc (2004 - 2006) - IT Manager
Liquid Entertainment (2006 - Pres) - IT Manager

I feel like I'm posting my resume, lol.

Yeah, I'm not directly involved with actual game development, I just suport it.

I used to work in the games industry years ago.. On c64/Amiga..

You think DOA4 is a button masher.. Get Xmen.. (no dont..).. I was just saying. DOA4 is graphically sweet but im not a button masher kind of guy.

If you like First Person Shooters/Third Person Shooters check out Rainbox Six Vegas or Gears of War.. Im sure youll enjoy those..

Thx for the Welcome. I used to be a big Tom Clancy fan. Ghost Recon is still one of my favorite games. I'll probably pickup Gears of War and the Rainbow 6 next week. I've played Gears of War a bit at work, but not to much. Played Resistance on the PS3 at work, it's ok, but I like the XBOX 360 better. Funny thing is, I don't think I would ever bought either of them. I just got the 360 as a gift from my old company, so I figured WTH, might as well jump in. Plus, I was getting real bored with World of Warcraft. Is a good change.
