Default This may be all my fault...

Hi,

I'm the journalist from the Sydney Morning Herald who wrote the blog that offended many but got some support from a certain type of gamer. http://blogs.smh.com.au/entertainmen...os/004337.html
So, I'm here to meet older gamers and am also hoping to get help with the frankly mystifying (and unforgiving) world of online games.

I'm specifically interested in D&D: Stormreach at the moment.

I've written other gaming pieces...that tend to look at games from the perspective of an older time-poor player.
http://blogs.smh.com.au/entertainmen...os/003820.html
http://blogs.smh.com.au/entertainmen...os/003163.html

So, I'd like to join your board - and experience playing with oldergamers.

I'm more than 25, and have read and agree with your conditions of use.

My gaming experience is a long and varied. I began on a Amstrad computer complete with a cassette tape drive. Elite was my game of choice back then. Favourite games that I can recall off the top of my head include California Games (PC), Defender of the Crown (PC), Tekken (PSOne), Tetris (GameBoy), X-Wing (PC), Sonic 1 (Sega MD), All Civs (PC), C&C (PC), GoldenEye (N64), Star Wars: Battlefront 2 (PSP)...and I'm getting too nostalgic so that will have to do.

My timing for gameplay differs with the weeks. I do this in my spare time, so that can vary from a few hours during the week to weekend play.
