Fan of the Month

"From when he first joined Oddworld Forums during the Tokyo Game show of 2000, SteelShark has always provided members with information on the Xbox and the inside information on many different games. A member of the CG industry, he is a lover of the Xbox and of Munch's Oddysee. Always informative, although often speaking his mind, SteelShark is a member who gives compliments where due and is always happy to answer any question about any console that is directed either towards him, or in a general topic." - Kristen "AbeBabe".
