That sucks, especially as this is my homepage and i am primarily a PC gamer.
EDIT: fell for that, hook, like and sinker...

To celebrate this shift in coverage, I will be hosting a give away of my most recent PC build, as it is no longer relevant to my work for PALGN.

If you write it on the internet, it must be true.

LOL! I was ready to rage until I realised the day
That said, the line about Crysis 2 being multi-platform and thus the future of PC gaming isn't that far from the truth...

Huh, well i dont really agree that PC is irrelevent. Consoles to this very day still cant pull off my favourite genre. The RTS...
Cant we wait till the far superiour BF3 hits the shelves? 
I mean come on theres no way its gonna scratch the surface on the consoles.

As one of PALGN's PC refugees I am commissioning a new site www.pelgn.com.au - the Pc Elitist Lover's Gamers Network. For all your PC gamer and swinger's needs.

Joke is on you. April Fools ends at midday.
"In some countries, including the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia and New Zealand, the April 1 tradition requires jokes to be played before midday: if somebody pulls an April Fools' Trick after midday, then the person pulling the trick is actually considered the fool."

We all know iOS is the master race right Goobs? PALGN should move to exclusively publishing iOS reviews

I like how people are starting to use iOS devices as controllers for other iOS devices. Do that with your consoles!

It's about time!
People don't play PC games anymore, that's a fact.
Any hardcore gamer knows that.
