    Hi all name is Spence i'm 36 years of age from Swansea, looking to join your Ally group as like a few of the other's i'm already a member of the Old Age Playstationer's, got told about the site by Wilks and after taking a little look decided to register and post a intro.

    Started gaming in the early 80's on the old Atari 2600 with breakout, battlezone and pacman, then remember getting a Amstrad cpc 464 off Father Christmas one year and remember playing Emlyn Hughes International soccer to death and platform games such as Dizzy etc, then went on to the PS1, PS2 and a bit of PC thrown in the mix and now i play the PS3, currently enjoy playing mainly Battlefield and FIFA but do enjoy COD (apart from sticks and stones!!).

    Would like to add have a really bad habit of swearing while playing :oops: so sorry in advance!!

    Cheers
    Spence.

    Hi big_spence75!! Like the OAPs, we have two status that being Ally (which is like Chum) and full Senior. Which one you looking for? Got to warn you that being a Senior will mean the OAPs will relegate you to Chum status. Obviously Senior status entitles you to all the technical gubbins at the bottom of the screen (which you currently cant see but is pretty cool) amongst other things; I let Martok or HaloJ explain, theyre better at it than me!! :lol:

    Glad to see you over here, and look forward to seeing you online soon!! :thumbup:

    Hi Spence :wave:

    It's always nice when old friends drop in. I missed our BFBC2 nights, they were great. Sadly, for me anyway, BF3 just wasn't the same.

    I'm off to Newport on Sunday so not a million miles away. Whatever you decide, full member or ally it's a :thumbup: from me.

    Welcome, Spence!

    We've played together many-a-time on BFBC2 and BF3 and I've definitely swore at you on more than one occasion for killing me. :oops: :evil:

    What games did you play on the PS1 and PS2? Did you play Battlefield Modern Combat? That was my first experience of the Battlefield series. I did try it again briefly a few months ago though that was only to get my Battlefield veteran status increased. ;)

    Although folk have asked what type of membership you are after, re-reading your intro it seems you're going for Ally status.

    Anyway, it's a vouch from me. :thumbup:

    Thanks for the welcome everyone nice to catch up with a few people who i have'nt heard off or gamed with for a while, being as i cant really commit to any events in the week as i work nights 99% of my gaming is usually on a weekends, i'm probably better off as a Ally a minute plus i'm as computer literate as a potato so wouldn't really contribute much on the tech side of things either.
    The games i used to play on the early Playstations where, Destruction Derby, Metal Gear Solid series, Call of Duty, Tekken and the old Fifa's plus a bit of Doom, the Battlefield series only really started on BFBC2 for me and its really where i got to meet most of you guys. The new Battlefield has taken over a bit at the moment though the new Gunmaster is a total waste of time (no cuddly toys Plax :shock: ) and sadly it seems to be getting more COD ish all the time.

    If your not on my friends list then add me Big_Spence75 i know i chopped a few people when i had'nt played online with them for a bit or found out they where Man United fans ;)

    Cheers

    Spence.

    Computer literacy to contribute on the tech side of things isn't needed here. We let Slaine in after all. ;) :lol:

    I liked the Destruction Derby games. I remember playing Destruction Derby Arena with Boba a few years back. I think we were the only people in the game though, it wasn't really played by others. :roll:

    Well if it's Ally status you would like then it's time to turn you green, just like all the grass in the valleys, look see!

    Hope to see you online soon. :)

    If you think for one minute that i'm not going to call you Mr potato head from now on, then you are sadly deluded.
