QTE Gamers Is Now Taking A Winter Holiday Break. The Site Should Be Back Up And Running As Normal In A Week Or 2

I've finally called it, i'm on my winter break. There was a surprising amount of videogame news over the last few days despite most of the industry being on their winter breaks. If there are any major developments I will report on them. I'm not sure when i'll be back from the break, I would like to take off until the new year, but if the industry wakes up before then I will to.

So until i'm back, I hope everyone has a good winter break, enjoys themselves, and has a great start to 2011...i know I will....

HAPPY HOLIDAYS!!!!!!!
