    Much to the dislike of many of you it seems, Game-Ireland is now online (bar a few glitches) and officially launches today. Here's the official press release and propaganda...

    "Welcome to Game-Ireland"

    *Rustles through newspaper*

    *Takes sip of tea*

    Ah, there you are. Good day and welcome to the first of hopefully many days
    spent at Game-Ireland.com, Ireland’s premier gaming website. Rising from the
    ashes of Consolefan, Game-Ireland is set to be the Net’s greatest gaming
    resource. So sit tight, don’t go anywhere, and stick around for the best in
    gaming knowledge that Ireland has to offer – we’ll be back after this brief
    history.

    Game-Ireland had its roots in collaboration between Noel Brady, one of
    Ireland’s leading videogames journalists, and Darren Mooney, a games
    journalist and website designer. With tens of years wasted playing games
    between them, they set out to produce the definitive Irish gaming
    publication. Consolefan was the end result of that collaboration, and hosted
    by the Gamesta network, with some of Ireland’s most talented journalists
    working on it, it instantly became a hit.

    So much a hit, in fact, that it outgrew its roots. Having become the most
    popular site on the Gamesta network, it was decided that Consolefan needed
    its own domain name and freedom. Thus, five months down the line,
    Game-Ireland is born.

    History lesson over. Now it’s time to bring Irish gaming to the world. What
    with Consolefan being incredibly brilliant, we’re going to be carrying on
    its splendid tradition of the best in gaming news, reviews and previews, all
    from our uniquely Irish perspective.

    But Game-Ireland is not going to be just Consolefan in fancier clothes.
    Game-Ireland will be the best of gaming websites, updated six times a week,
    and have the latest in news, previews of the best upcoming games, exclusive
    before-release reviews, interviews with the people who shape the games
    industry, and the best of features about the industry, all written by
    Ireland’s finest gaming journalists.

    We’ll leave you to it. But stop by every day for the latest and greatest in
    gaming information. We’ll be here, bringing Irish gaming to the world. Head
    on over to www.game-ireland.com.

    Nothing else about the site will be said. I was merely informing you of it's launch. I have no intention of placing any more posts about the site on these boards, or any other boards for that matter.

    Lump,

    Always with the callow annonymous threats.
    This is the 2nd time I've seen you make pathetic threats on this forum.
    Laughable.
    Go away.

    Uncalled for, Lump. There's little point in me deleting it now - I've been away for a bit - but if and when I see you posting like that again, it'll be gone in a flash.

    Ja,
    Rob

    I don't give a small rice krispie bun for whether you care or not, as long as you don't post any more uncalled-for tripe.

    Ja,
