I propose a gaming section...

I have noticed a lot of our members play a lot of games on all platforms and i think it would be cool to have a gaming section seperated by the game platform (i.e. xbox ps3 etc.) it would help also with those that want to play with other members on css and want to do meets and stuff like that...Just a thought I wouldnt mind moderating the section either lol

I concur. Although I'm concerned it would become another arguement around here.

A seperate forum for each platform is a bit much. One gaming section should be enough.

Xbox, PS3, Wii, PC. We can all get along right?

I think it's a good idea, but not necessarily different sections. Just a big general section and everybody can attempt to get along.

As far as gaming forums, yes there are some out there, but it's kind of nice to be able to talk gaming (or hunting, or fishing, or any old hobby) with people you have something besides gaming in common with.

I'm sorta lucky in that my office mate is a gamer, so she and I can BS about games and compare games we like and games we want to try and stuff, I don't see what the big deal would be with having a small section here.

I think the problem with one forum for all the platforms is if someone is trying to set up an online session with a game that is on multiple platforms, it might become confusing which platform he/she is using.

Yea i know there are gaming forums out there but i mean it would be nice to just deal with people that are atleast 17 and older and in a car forum most people are that you know? I hate playing xbox live and having to deal with immature kids thats why i think it would be nice to have a gaming section here cause we all already have one thing in common why not another

Thats a simple fix. Put Xbox: COD4 Session tonight! or Wii: Super Smash Bros Fight tonight!

Just put the corresponding console before the thread title.

If you don't like the section you could just not post in it. Pessimist.

You sir, are correct

This is a Car forum, Off Topic stuff should be secondary and we have a section dedicated to O/T stuff as it is. No reason to sub-categorize it.

But, that is my opinion

I think if its not about a car they should all be locked.

I could care less your girlfriends got a retarded brother that her parents make you take with you when ever your together so you cant get laid.

Well now that I think about it ,some of that **** is funny.
