To be totally honest, i HATE it when people use abbrevations for game names! 9 times outta 10 i have no idea what game they are referring to.

heres an example... SS.. could be Super Sonic, Scared Stiff, or even Secret Service for f@#ks sake!

sharkeys shootout  too

Never seen it abbreviated like that.

I suspect if I was going to abbreviate it I would use G:HSII but usually this is one I wouldn't abbreviate.
