Yes, if only Halo could compete with the mighty Warhawk and it's 50,000 players. :bow:"The issue is there are still many people out there that use religion as a crutch for bigotry and hate. Like Ben."

Then do you retract your assertion that its mainly "nongamers" there?
From looking at that site, it seems to be predominantly about PC gaming.
Then your view of it is cursory. There are numerous posters there who mainly play consoles, and few who dont play consoles.
I can see why he's still bitter about Halo, then. Still, worthless site and review.
Many of the folks there eagerly look forward to Halo3. I also didnt detect bitterness, just disappointment.
Its definitely not a worthless site. Like I said, since youre so smart and theyre so dumb, Id be eager to see you posting there. Theyd give you a much better contest on many issues than we do here."A person cannot approach the divine by reaching beyond the human.

Don't get mad at me Asher, but the only game I ever owned for the Xbox was Halo 1/2.
I bought my XBox 360 a year ago and the only game I owned for it was GoW until last week when I bought Bioshock.
Halo2 and 3 are the only games I have ever put on reserve.

Judging from the forums, it's not a very popular gaming site and the majority of threads are about PCs.

Why would I post on such a worthless site? The guy's an unqualified bit actor who plays minor characters on TV shows, his reviews are awful (and likely dishonest, since he didn't get a review copy if he couldn't play it online), and the forums look vacant and boring. The fact that YOU recommend it for gaming purposes only cements it as a worthless site.Many of the folks there eagerly look forward to Halo3. I also didnt detect bitterness, just disappointment.

There are at least two other people on that site who apparently are reviewers and have played it. One agreed with Chick, one cited his own (more positive) review.Originally posted by Asher
Considering that only game reviewers have it, how can people "disagree"?"A person cannot approach the divine by reaching beyond the human. To become human, is what this individual person, has been created for.” Martin BuberComment

Maybe I should go sign up and post:
Hello. Just like y'all, I got me a review copy! Let me say Tom Chick is 100% WRONG.

Search is your friend. Had you searched, youd have found this thread:

Its far busier than this one. Im not sure why his bit acting says anything about the quality of the site.

You're so sweet.
I still think you should take your great wisdom to the benighted masses there. You could show them how wrong they are. Or maybe not."A person cannot approach the divine by reaching beyond the human. To become human, is what this individual person, has been created for.” Martin BuberComment

It'd be stupid. I post on enough sites, and if I wanted to post with people like Tom Chick I'd post on the IGN boards. I don't care for the rabble.You're so sweet.

It's clearly a PC oriented site. I don't see how you can deny this. The vast majority of threads on the forum are about PC games. The vast majority of games people buy are console games."The issue is there are still many people out there that use religion as a crutch for bigotry and hate. Like Ben."

Brad Wardell is HARDLY an industry pro. He made a medicore game that didn't even sell that well for a company most people loathe (Stardock). He makes most of his money selling shovelware customization software.Originally posted by lord of the mark
