I'm a long-time gamer, and I've always enjoyed talking about (and criticizing) games.  After years of boring the hell out of my non-gamer friends and family, I finally decided I would man up and start contributing online.  Unfortunately, this is easier said than done, because apparently there are a ton of gaming sites out there.  After shopping around a bit, it looked like this place and Destructoid were the most fun and laid back.  I really liked the vibe at Destructoid and the community seemed really nice, but the site definitely had some technical issues.  Giant Bomb seems to have a similar vibe, but I like the site a lot better, so I'm going to try to make my home here.
 
So, if you're reading this, check out my first contribution!  It's a review of Fable III.  Also, as a noob, I welcome any suggestions of how to best contribute here at GB.
