	She's stirred up the Internet: God help her The voices may not be real.....but they have some good ideas. Have you ever even been on the wrong end of a green tide style army with Ard Boys out front? Or boyz in battle wagons? It freaking sucks. It's like trying to stop a tsunami of steroid pumped cyborg rottweilers from eating you.

One of the better views into the gaming world I thought. A good presentation which also doesn't play into the whole "joke" gamers image (and indeed it even goes as far as to mention this fact during the presentation). A great introduction to people on the outside who want to peek into the world of gamers. The only thing I think they could have done a little bit more of would have been to have interviewed (in a totally casual manner) a girl gamer and to have had one or two more appear in the background of the video. Mostly since girl gamers are growing in number - plus it would have been nice to have raised the point - esp for model miniature wargames - on girl gamer painters - those who tend to just paint rather than play as I'm aware there are quite a few who go down this path.

I might share this with the Mrs so she gets a little better understanding of what I do
