Welcome to The Infinity Program, a general discussion forum that has been around since June, 2004. As the founder, one of my goals is to maintain this community even as others fall to the wayside. Also, I want to encourage engaging conversation by regularly submitting new topics that contain thoughts and insights rather than just aggregated material. Finally, none of the posts here are the result of “exchanges” or “packages”—i.e., all participation at this forum is “organic.”
If you are a first time visitor and want to know more about this place, read the “Guide,” “A Short History of the Forum,” “Five Reasons to Switch to the Infinity Program,” and the highly entertaining “A Brief History of the Universe.” Along those lines, The Infinity Encyclopedia describes notable members and topics, and notable events of the forum. Alternatively, if you want to submit feedback, contact us.

And I don't mind spoilers, so watching the playthrough did not bother me in that regard. That said, I watch playthroughs by vash12349 because I think his commentary hilarious or generally entertaining, and I like watching his reactions to games I have played, such as the original Metal Gear Solid. Has anyone here watched a playthrough? Watch them regularly? Do not see the point in them? I know a lot of people watch...
