action
A placeholder word, used to facilitate conversation, usually only understood contextually by the participants of the conversation, and not by outsiders.
trip
1. A noun that refers to a single complete experience of using acid (LSD, which is a powerful hallucinogenic drug), or any other powerful hallucinogenic drug.
makes sence to me

That's like asking why is the sky blue.
And why is water wet.

The sky is blue because of the refraction of light.
And water is wet because it commonly exists in a phase of liquid.
;)
But seriously, I agree with NiteX, and I see where you're coming from. It doesn't need an explanation, it just is .

That's like asking why aren't midgets considered alien and exterminated, or why are sweatshops illegal, or why does a cow kick so hard when groped them behind?
See.. some things are better left unanswered.

Gamespy was taken. It was a tossup between "Actiontrip" and "boyfuckpig". My vote would not have gone towards actiontrip.

Actually, as near as I can remember, 2lions wanted to start a gaming website that didn't have gaming in the title. Gamespot, Gamespy, Gamer's Hell, Gamegossip, IGN, et al.
He came up with Actiontrip.

It was probably supposed to be AcidTrip, but it was a late night, and the booze plentiful....
