Finally, the holiday madness is over and we can now start looking forward to the games of 2001. All those games that were supposed to come out in 2000 but were pushed back instead. For those of you who didn't get the games you wanted under the tree stop by your local software store and catch some "after Christmas" sales. Here I usually use "Staples" for buying software and they had many good titles on sale when I stopped in yesterday. Bargin Bins are indeed a wonderful thing! The holiday season sure didn't stop the forum users from being active! This week we have some wonderful debates ranging from software piracy to Giants: Citizen Kabuto, and pile o' crap games. As always, the Sharky Forums are an enlightening place to be!

The Debate on Software Piracy
Forum user "AMD_Forever" feels that piracy is wrong, and calls for those who pirate games to write their views and try to defend them. What we get is a lively debate with some very thought-provoking posts.
Serious Sam Test 2
Serious Sam is one of the games (in demo form) to have been released this year - and have everyone talking and playing. Then we see games like Deus Ex and Project IGI. Is Serious Sam really nothing but a pile o' horse crap? Or wait.. wasn't it Quake 3 that belongs in that pile?
Giants
Giants: Citizen Kabuto seems to be one of those titles that has everyone talking...until it is released that is. Tune in to this new forum thread and find out if this game is worth it, and read other gamer's opinions on it. It would seem many have heard about it, but very few have actually bought it.
Banned in Germany?!?
How often we gamers in North America forget that in other countries, gamers are free to play and own many of the games we take for granted here. This forum discusses some of the games banned in Germany and views on the banning. "Citan_Xg" who lived in germany for a few years talks about some of the games that never made it to shelves in germany and the restrictions game magazines etc. are under there.
