Forum Poster: Jonwh18
Started this interesting little topic in our Site Enhancements board about wanting to start up a new activity in System Wars, perhaps if he gets enough support we could hope to see something like this implemented.
User Review: PeterDuck
Stretches his literary technique in his PC review for Borderlands 2, well thought out points and a cleaver critique, you should give it a read.

Fuse Poster: Toplinkar
We picked this gamer for sharing this awesome little didyouknowgaming.com tip about Sonic and few creepy things that happen if you enter the right combo.
Comment Poster: Slinqy
We picked this user for his interesting points on Desmonds story line (or lack there of). "Yeah. Seems strange. We know virtually nothing about Desmond in ACIII. And this is supposed to be the conclusion of his story? They're either playing the cards very close to the chest or they're not telling us something."
Player of the Week: BloodMist
This GameSpotter is a shockingly good Borderlands player and has recently unlocked 1.21 Gigawatts, Pandora-dog Millionaire, and he Discovered Sledge’s Safe House.
