We should have a Games section...

I've thought the same thing, but I'd doubt they would do it. This is a computer forum, after all. I guess that's what the Off Topic forum is for. But I'd love to see a gaming section!

The forum is called "Software - Applications, Programming and Games".

Obviously he meant seperate from Software & Applications since they really don't belong together in most people's opinion.

This has been brought up before but shot down. You know we can't afford to ditch any of the high traffic forums to make room for Games.

Better yet, give us programming gurus a separate forum (with
Code:
tags), so you gaming freaks can have a forum all to yourself (how many applications posts are there in that forum typically, anyway?). ;)

pretty good #

people talk about games and applications all the time in there - no real need for a 'games' only section...

Off topic also has game discussion, but until there is a single forum for gaming, it will continue to be a low traffic subject, since AT is pretty much Hot Deals, Off TopicFor Sale/Trade, and then Hardware. I would recommend trying some other sites for gaming..I visit Rage3D + Shacknews for PC Gaming, TeamXbox for Xbox games, and then quite a few different ones for games like madden, espn nfl/nhl etc..

A place for people to post all their game spoilers, hints, code, hacks. Maybe talk about their XBox mods, etc. I think Zuni once said that we have maxed out the number of forums though so something would have to be removed.

<---- points to sig.

Could always come use mine ;)

I wonder if the new Fusetalk version will allow more flexibility for stuff like this?

Fusetalk has the option of subforums, they are just not implementd IIRC.

a Code tag would be cool. That way I could post VB code without the tab's and spaces being taken away, along with not having smilies sprinkled liberaly around the page :p
