I am proud to announce that we will be merging with Imagine Entertainment.
Becoming a partner of Imagine Entertainament will broaden our user base and allow us to take full advantage of our partner's assets and partner sites.
These forums will be merged with the IGN forums in the weeks ahead in a new area called "The hotzone".
Unfortunately existing user nicknames will not be carried over.
However, a free three month trial of IGN premier access will be provided to each former site member to smooth the transition.
I'd like to thank all of you for your many years of support and look forward to seeing you in the new forums!

considering that there were never any stocks or a company to begin with, I don't see a merger being a threat on such a date. hehe

Yay! Congratulations!
So, now that you're a rich man - are you gonna cut all of us into it? Say, slip us active members $50 each else we'll tell the world about your little 'incident' with the 'police' last 'spring'.

Well i picked up aa 360 devkit today, and was pleasently suprised to find not only GTA4, but the new metal gear solid as well, it appears that MGS is running via a PS3 emulator as well as the 360 unit having a intergrated bluray drive
