We're back this week with a new edition of the Sharky Games Forum Frag! This week a lot has been happening in the forums, and the 10,000th forum member mark has been met. Isn't that impressive! This week we have the usual console dispute (except it starts off with praise for the GameCube instead of the Xbox). The superiority of Half-Life is discussed, and gamers cast their vote on which game they think will be better: TeamFortress 2 or Tribes 2. This week we're also spotlighting forum topics on gaming addictions, networking problems, and just for fun - Stupid Girl Questions! As always, if you see a gaming related thread in the forums that you feel deserves a special mention in the Forum Frag, drop me a line with the topic name or URL.

Half-Life: Best Game Ever?
There is no doubt that Half-Life is one of the best (if not the best) games ever made. While the graphics are now a wee bit outdated, the fun factor alone still makes games using Half-Life like Counter-Strike & TFC unbeatable! Wait, amongst the praise, was that a "I wouldn't say it's the best game ever" post I see...
TEAMFORTRESS 2 VS TRIBES 2
Well, both games are getting good press and hitting many gamer's "want list". Check in on this popular forum thread and cast your vote. Which is the most anticipated game, TF2 or Tribes 2!
Games that Kill
What happens when you see a friend become so addicted to a game that it is starting to affect your life and how you live it. "When Mr Cherry's" roommate picked up EverQuest, it seems he just couldn't put it down.
Why GameCube Will Destroy XBox and PS2
With the recent release of the Playstation 2 and the much hyped upcoming Xbox release, we sometimes forget about the third "big expectation", the GameCube. In this forum thread you can check out some of the views on the different consoles, and find out some in-depth info on the GameCube.
Stupid Network Problem!
Okay, a laptop and a desktop are hooked together via a 10/100 ethernet lan. It works just great, unless it is the laptop you use to host the game. If you've experienced this problem before, or have any suggestions on how to make this work, drop by the forum and let "The Evil Dust Bunny" know.
Just for Fun...
