The VG Section Gamer's Club

So, this is an idea Ai and myself have been kicking around for awhile now, well over a month. Obviously, the majority of us in here are good friends, and we all enjoy discussing games together. What we propose is a kind of "Book of the Month" club, except for games!

We'll all choose a game, hopefully something that everyone can get a hold of. We'll keep the choices limited, nothing next-gen, nothing too pricey, so that if someone needs to go get it, they may be able to pick it up at EB for a couple bucks used.

After we all agree on a game, we'll decide on some time frames. Say we choose OoT as a game, we'll come up with something such as, "Beat the Deku Tree" and depending on the task at hand, lets say in a day or two for this particular task, then we'll all come back and discuss it. Hopefully, not only will this bring about some intelligent discussion about the game itself, but maybe even how we perceive the game, or game making in general. It'll also give us a chance to go back and play games some people may have missed, or just not tried out in the first place.

So, is anyone up for this? I think it'll be a great way to further bring our little community in this section together, and maybe get some genuine discussion going on. If we get enough people, we'll all brainstorm some game ideas and pick our first game to play!
