Nope (does one exist?), and thats the problem...

Guy A says: Don't discuss Deus Ex 2 in this group (dk.spil.computer,
spil = games) - use dk.spil.computer.fps instead because Deus Ex 2 is
a first person shooter.

Guy B says: No, here is fine because Deus Ex 2 isn't a first person
shooter; it's a role playing game.

At this point the discussion has come to the: "You are stupid", "No,
you are stupid" stage. Thus guy C (Arcana Dragon) started this thread
to get some external (expert?) input.
