Hey All,

This is truly refreshing to actually find a group, or should I say Union, of Adult Gamers.

I'm in my mid 30's, living in Gainesville, FL with my family. I've been seeking adult gamersto playXbox 360 games with online! Unfortunately those contacts are few and far between:?. I've been gaming since the early days of Radio Shack "Pong" ,Intellivision, ColecoVision and Atari cartridges.

If anyone is looking to play please send a friend request toXbox 360 Gamer Tag:"dboy 18a" :) ! Please let me know your from the Union!

Insight:

For some time now, shortly after the release of “Rainbow Six Black Arrow“, I’ve seen a steady decline in civility throughout the online Gaming Community L . Unfortunately, the friends that I had come to know quite well, didn’t upgrade to the Xbox 360. Shortly after that, I found it hard to meet adult gamers with similar interests, including gaming styles.

Hopefully through his Forum I will earn the respect of some new friends who enjoy gaming as much or more than I do:D. Finding people who play games with similar gaming styles is never easy.

When “Ghost Recon, Advanced Warfighter” came out I was lucky to play with a group of military minded, tactical thinking, individuals who helped me achieve the rank of General (25) & #4 on the Top Ten list within five days. Unbelieveably I managed to stay in the top 100 for 3 months without playing one ranked match after reaching 25. Utilizing solid teamwork, quick reflexes, & spec-ops inspired ambush & flanking techniques were very successful against  "run -n- gun" style of gameplay. It wasn’t long after that I realized I set myself up for all kinds of attacks from people of all ages, while in the top ten (mostly young gamers). Calling me names, sending me threatening messages etc…  I’m sure you’ve all been there, done that, got the tee-shirt ,hat, coffee mug, bumper sticker, bobble-head doll and ash tray.

I ‘m a die hard techie who loves to see what developers can throw at us next. Gaming is more than a hobby to me, it is a way to meet good people with similar interests who just want to have fun. Don’t get me wrong kicking some a** and taking names is fun too, but I like to take the High road by not tearing apart my adversaries when the fight is done. I like to thank my opponents for a solid round!

My Best Games:

Teams that stay frosty, use 360 degree cover techniques, while working together towards the same objective, what a rush! When it is done right there is nothing like it, Bound, Cover-Fire & Flank. The best teams I've had the privilege to be a part of trust and have Mutual Respect for one another. The best games I've been lucky to play a part in, always used proper planning and tactics.

So thank you to all for being part of the Adult Gamers Union! It is without a Shadow of a Doubt this Union has renewed my faith that Adults like to play. Many thanks for your time, Let the Games Begin!
