As a budding community we have to ask ourselves whether a forum would be worth it or not. As you can imagine the benefits to such a thing would be huge for developers who wish to have an immediate place to advertise their game. However, a dead forum is often a deterrent to a website's popularity.
It's something we've been mulling for a little while now. While it certainly won't make the launch, we'd be interested to know what you think of adding a forum soon after launch, or if it would be better to build traffic and site popularity beforehand.
Feel free to chime in!
Consider Facebook as forums. A lot of projects are using Facebook as the "community center" these days. Check out Monaco's page: http://www.facebook.com/MonacoIsMine
