I've done extensive work on the Megatokyo (This is a featured article. Click here for more information.), Halo: Combat Evolved (This is a featured article. Click here for more information.), System Shock (This is a featured article. Click here for more information.), Ultima Underworld: The Stygian Abyss (This is a featured article. Click here for more information.), Thief: The Dark Project (), Black Isle's Torn (), F.E.A.R. (), Icewind Dale II and Icewind Dale articles. My Icewind Dale work stands as my first significant contribution - when I started, the Icewind Dale series was just a stub with some minor details. I expanded it to cover all three games in detail, and when the games were split into separate articles, I edited them to stand better on their own. Due to my inexperience at the time, they're fairly poor articles that I will probably rewrite at some point. My largest contribution would have to be Halo: Combat Evolved. I rewrote the entire article, and eventually pushed it all the way through FAC.

I often used to log out to edit pages more freely (mainly on the Megatokyo article), so if you see a lot of older IP edits in a row in that article's edit history, it was probably me. For the record, I was 71.244.219.135, 71.244.179.162, 70.106.217.61, 70.106.218.72, 71.244.209.7, and much to my current dismay, 70.106.194.25 (unknowingly vandalizing pages at first is inevitable, eh?).

Pages without Notes sections bug me. I have been known to add Notes sections to random articles on a whim.[1][2] ←——————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————→

I thought I hadn't recognized you for this before (I have, a year ago) but it's worth restating. Your efforts at finding high-quality sources are what our video game articles need. Keep it up, Der Wohltemperierte Fuchs(talk) 16:22, 23 September 2010 (UTC)
