My names Rob, male, 36, Midlands, UK, 2 kids, fiancee and still gaming.

Signed up here as it seems to be a popular place for TDU related goodness :)

Been a TDU fan for a few years and have been active in the past on both PS3, 360, and most recently caught the bug again and started again on PC. PC is also all I game on now and unlikely to change this or next generation.

When I play TDU2 I'm mostly using my DFGT steering wheel but may swap over to the 360 controller if chilling back in my seat or in the Casino. Tweaked TDU2 so I'm mostly now without those pesky Jaggies and worked out an easy way to change the key mapping depending on wether I'm Wheel/keyboard or controller. Basically I've got it as I like and enjoying the game immensely, way more than I did on the consoles!

My gaming is all over the place and has been since the days of MMO's like DAoC and Asherons Call 2. I enjoy Strategy, RPG and Coop Campaign games. At time of post enjoying many hours with TDU2 of course, and especially interested in the social aspect of it.

To help break up this long post here's a piccy of me to laugh at.

I'm generally online evenings from 8pm till stupid O clock and some Sunday afternoons, my misses manages any additional playing time.

Various experience in MMO's from Mir/AC/DAoC/Neocron/EQ2/SWG/WoW (Regular raiding) and others that I can't remember. Far too much time spent in FPS games and played CS way back before Source with maps like 747 and Siege rotated. By no means am I elite at anything but does give a little history.

Outside of gaming I enjoy creating signatures and other graphic bits and also Windows Application development (.Net). I also enjoy mountain biking, which I do as a 10 mile round trip to work most days and also try and get a 25 mile trip in on a weekend. I also enjoy micro adventures, like a bivvy out under the stars or maybe a spot of rafting.

I bring love and peace! Failing that I bring lots of spelling mistakes and post edits.....
