    Greetings

    I'm new here, so I figured I'd introduce myself. I'm an older guy, mid 40's, and live in the southeastern US. I still play some console games though and am always looking for intelligent conversation and tips. I'm not up to date on the systems, I only have an XBox 360 with Kinect and a Wii. I do...
