Hi all,
I thought I'd set up one of these prior to the 9th so we're not just a bunch of gamertags!
I'm Dom. I live in East London with my wife and our 15 month old daughter. I'm the wrong end of my 30s (36) and work in investment banking (don't hold it against me!).
I do most of my gaming in the evenings once my daughter is asleep and dinners been made. I generally stay up too late playing on the xbox so am perpetually tired, but I'm sure I'm not alone there!
I'd definitely say I fit in to the "casual" gamer category using it as a fun way to wind down at the end of the day. That said I'm a bit of a completionist, so I seem to spend a decent amount of time grinding out multi player achievements. I'm definitely a co-op fan and will always prefer PvE over PvP but will happily play the latter as long as it doesn't get too serious.
Well, thats me. Look forward to hopefully hooking up with some of you on the 9th.
All the best,
Dom

First of all, thanks Dom for this post and welcome to you and all the new members. I was out last night with my wife and friends celebrating a birthday, so apologies for not getting on here sooner. I am Marcus and i live in Plymouth, Devon with my wife and four boys. I spent 24 years in the army, leaving in Nov 2011 and i now work as a training designer for the Royal Navy. I used to be a completionist and considered myself a serious gamer but life has since got in the way and i am now definitely in the 'casual' bracket but certain games have been known to consume me. I spent 800 hours playing Oblivion after wiping my character after 300 hours and starting anew. I have played lots of first person shooters GOW, HALO, battlefield, COD but my favourite games are RPG types. This game has me buzzing and i definitely want to invest most of my time in one game and have a fun time playing with a great crowd. I haven't done that since Gears of War 2. So once again a very big welcome to you and the other new members and look forward to gaming with you on the 9th.
