    anyone here planning to pay $500-$600 for a Playstation 3?

    What was your first game alias?

    Possibly Lemonhead when I first got Tribes 2, but there may be some other name I've just forgotten. Switched over to Thadius_Dean sometime when I was playing Animal Crossing for the GCN. I named one of my neighbors Thadius Adams Dean or they named me that or something. Anyway, I liked the name...
