Third person to join the site so I guess I’m one of the originals, I was on Gamesradar from 2004 and Edge prior to that.

So many great times, forum invasions were always a highlight, the great PSN outage was another pure gold moment.

I don’t post as much as I used to, but still visit the forum daily.

I have no idea how I ended up here, but I think it was through gr ending (someone posted a link to the new home iirc). I lurked for ages and only joined so i could tell people it was possible to back out of a ps3 game update with circle and still play it.

Favourite GamesRadar memory - Halo 3 launch and everyone playing on Coagulation

Favourite GRcade memory - Last of Us multiplayer, those games were strawberry floating tense.

(joined GR back in January 2004 after lurking for a while)

Favourite memory:

A month before I started university and one of the first topics was about applying to be on Total Wipeout.

Loads of us applied, I got through and ended up the show, with it being filmed in Argentina in November 2008 and broadcast in February 2009. I even got sent a trophy for the best big balls Wipeout. :slol:


I remember that. In fact I don't just remember it, I still have the episode...

:lol:

I just re-watched a bit of it to make those gifs I forgot Richard Hammond was narrating



:lol: Did you subtly speed up the GIFs?


Nope, that's all you. :lol:

I joined Mon Aug 18, 2008 6:50 am.

I think I joined GamesRadar in September 2005, or maybe early 2006, I forget honestly.

I joined on Thu Aug 21, 2008 10:57 pm, so pretty much been here from the start! :toot:

Post count is 1900 - I've only been sporadically active over the 10 years, probably posting once or twice a month on average for most of my time, but I've been more active in the last year or so!

I can't remember when I would have joined GamesRadar back in the day but I was there for a while I think.

Joined in 2009. Can't really remember how I ever found the place. But I'm glad I did.

Total posts: 407 (surprised it's this many, to be honest)

I was on Gamesradar for quite a while but couldn't tell you when I joined - I was quite the heavy drinker back then and everything from around 1997 til 2008 is a bit of a blur.

I think I would probably post more often but usually somebody beats me to it with a similar opinion. Still, I love this place and check-in at least every hour when I'm awake.
