Pull up a chair, pour yourself a glass of your favorite fizzy beverage, and make yourself at home because GameTalk is back! We have been down for quite some time for some much needed upgrades, and now everything is smoother and better than ever with a whole new look. Carry on trading tips, reviews, ideas and strategies for all your favourite games with some of the best gamers on earth. Now that we've got the introductions out of the way, let's move onto the not-fun part.

GameTalk is for all ages and supervised by a dedicated bunch of moderators (members of GameTalk specifically chosen to help out around the forums). If you're new here don't feel afraid of jumping straight in, just choose a forum from the quicklinks above and get stuck in. GameTalk is growing all the time and without newbies, we would have a group of highly bored moderators. And besides, we're all newbies for each new game we play, so you'll rarely feel like the only one with problems.

As usual if you are under 18 please obtain your guardian's permission to post here, and if you are new to the online world, make sure that you have discussed online safety - mainly avoiding posting, sharing or discussing personal information. GameTalk would like you ensure your safety and help you have a fun time discussing games with people from all around the world.

In addition to the search box at the top of the screen, there is also a group of links that once clicked reveal the main GameTalk forums - essentially the most popular - for you to join in. If you cannot find the forum you are looking for even after using the search function, create a thread about it in the Requests forum and wait patiently for a reply from the administrator or a moderator. If your request is popular enough, it will be made!

A big difference between the old GameTalk and the new one are less forums. A lot of the game forums were quite inactive and made some areas of the site seem less cosy, and as a result they have been 'decomissioned' until there is enough reason for them to be brought back. As said above, post about it in Requests and wait for an answer. You will still find your old favourites (if you're coming back to the site) and maybe even some new ones!

We hope you enjoy GT!
