Really wish this would pick up so we could get some of the old timers back together. Not enough of us visit here to be able to see it

Quoting for visibility (as if people pay attention to my posts any more!).

I don't know what your plans are for the server but I have now joined. I'm generally around on Discord most of the time for other reasons, can't promise I'll be overly talkative there but I'll try and check it relatively frequently. Forums are a mostly dead format these days as we know, so Discord is infinitely easier for everyone to chat in.

Regarding spreading word of the Discord perhaps once it's properly up and running we'll post the link on the main page of the website. Perhaps on our social media channels too which themselves are also inactive; it's unlikely any of this will help much. Also, doing this may attract a ton of randoms rather than all the old-school members of the forums... so yeah, we'll think about what to do.

In the meantime, feel free to share the link with any members you talk with outside of TGTAP.

For anyone still checking this topic and wondering if the discord is still running, it is! Get on there.

I am still alive, stumbled back on this site after finding out thanks to chatgpt that my profile got hacked haha 😅

Haven't been on here in 15 years! A lot has changed, and I cringe at my posts/comments from back then when I was a teenager haha. Hope all of you are well

I joined here when I was a kiddo, I'm surprised I was able to write so many posts considering I was 12 and not a native speaker lmao.
Anyway hello, I want to apologize on behalf of my 12 year old self for being cringe and kind of a drama queen. Hopefully we can meet again in another 18 years!

People, what the heck, I know Trump demands all our attention but take a break from the windbag and breath some fresh air!

I am always around, and had retired my PS3 thin when the disc drive gave up function, original used price of $60USD... Earlier fat aka Phat PS3 originally had several and when needed could not locate, so along came three at different prices, the cheapest was $50-55, so that was my 2026 B-day present to myself! My only 'phat PS3' is an alleyway find of original PS3 60GB, broken but worth saving for a resto, original Emotion Engine and multi-card reader, would be great if it had LInux Redhat unless Sony dropped that in the earliest stage. PS3 and PSP, PS2, and PS Vita as media centric console gaming are seemingly getting a lot of attention shown, oddly. Playstation 2 Vice City Stories is sitting at $80 a copy here, I got mine in the 2-pack with LCS but that is also valuable.

My PS4 got a twin with bad BD drive, aka BluRay. The secondary unit works the PSN at the time, been away from that and even had established a HOME network avatar and ventured into that short lived communal oddity, it's worth mentioning a non-Sony group looks to preserve HOME elements as best they can as an archive digitally of what it respresented, we can't forget that HOME was a major push to elevate console online. It devolved to Marketplace boring money making over having a fun experience, that is true of all that's going on, control of IP, that was Xbox One major backlash and capitulation, now it's Sony and Rockstar in heated contest with gamers, and Sony is opting like Rockstar Games to not budge, but fade out optical disc storage into 2030, so..... how are you all? Let's get to discussing gaming here, no bots please! 

I also have multiple Xboxes and one PS2 slim that works and another that broke, so despite only a few go to games, I wanted the hardware to cover that vast library, but Internet is a must to keep you XB360 clock going, it does work, thankfully, do you have your XBOX360 Wi-Fi dongle? I have to consider buying more than one going forward, or abandon the extra units, with RRoD, you just never know, to have 3-4 Xbox 360s in 2026, crazy!
