    Now there is a place for us Doctor Who fans to come together and discuss all things Who on these forums! No longer shall we be oppressed and left to stand in the shadows... (Yes, this is an appreciation thread.) Anyway... A new Doctor has taken over, with a difficult job of taking over the...

    Steam Summer Sale 2014

    That time of year again! Whether you've been waiting for it for a while or you're desperately trying to not spend lots of money, another Steam sale has appeared. I'm treading between both of those categories, so I have a list and I WILL stick to it. Thought that probably won't happen, seeing as...

    The Steam Trading Thread

    Lets trade! List what you have or what you want, we can all do our best to fulfil it! For example, I have Half Life 2: Episode 1 in my inventory and I've had it for years and I can't get rid of it. Does it appeal to anybody? (Chances are everyone has already played it so won't want it anyway...

    Titanfall

    Kind of crazy what varierty the Source engine is capable of. I'm not sure on this... It looks fun, but it could also be just CoD with robots. Did anyone get into the beta?

    New Years Resolutions

    Do you have any? How likely are you to complete them? If you aren't making any, why not? Mine is simple: Upload (and therefore write) more music to my sites; 3 a month seems a realistic goal. What are yours?!?!?!!!!!

    The Room 101 Thread

    Room 101 is an unimaginably torturous room originating from a novel by George Orwell. I thought it'd be fun to do our own version, where you can argue what you'd put into Room 101 within a certain topic which is: Gaming. So what thing related to Gaming would you like to see locked away and...

    An Acoustical Experiment Involving YOU

    I would like your help, fellow Traction Wars community members and developers, with a scientific musical experiment! Don't all jump up at once, there's plenty of space for all. First of all, this isn't a hearing test, it is merely a university experiment of perceptual audio masking. In order...
