Mate of mine just recently told me about this forum (goes by themoniker Nezuji), and it looks like it would be just what I'm after as a gamer.
Anyways, first a little about myself:
I'm 26, live in Melbourne, Vic, and I'd definitely classify myself as a casual gamer. I don't tend to really get to bash away at my PC as often as I might like, but that's all ok - I'm probably spending that free time out with my mates or with my girlfriend instead!
I also tend to devote a lot of my spare time towards other hobbies as well, such as tabletop wargaming (yeah, quite the nerd, but hey, who cares?

)
As a gamer, I guess I'm looking for a slightly more mature crowd of other gamers, for a much more relaxed atmosphere. And this place looks like a good spot to find it, from the little I've seen so far!
Anyway, as for the games themselves - I tend not to be too specialised in my tastes, as I like everything from the odd FPS (like TF2 which I've only just now begun to play

), real time strategy such as Company of Heroes, through to games much like diablo, civlization, and fallout 3/eldar scrolls.
The first console I've ever owned was my ancient Atari - I remember wasting aeons on games like River Raid. And whilst my current PC is hardly top of the line (single core cpu etc...) it still runs fallout 3 without any hiccups so all is ok!
So yeah - Consider this my application to join TOG! And first my plan? If accepted, I'll be heading straight over to any TF2 thread I can find!
Cheers,
