Gamer - Joystick Jammer

Loving This: I. Own. Fallout 3.

Hating This: I. Can't f***ing play. Fallout 3.

Alter Ego	Gamer
Specialty	Long windedness, an unability to discern when one is serious, not getting enough sleep, and having a hard time learning from certain mistakes. I also easily swing from obnoxious enthusiasm to shy anti-social silence and avoidance.
City	Brooklyn, NY
Country	United States of America
Gender	Male

Day Job	Layabout.
Education	Senior year of High School.
My Site	www.idonthaveasite.com
Awards	I got this one thing as a 3rd grader when I won an art contest. Got a plaque with a letter from some official in the White House and everything. Was too young to understand what to do with it. Lost it all.
Hidden Talents	...stuff? I write pretty well, though my vocabulary is lacking in my opinion. I've tried my hand at drawing, all I need is a lot more practice, you know, just a lot. And I've got cool ideas for games and gamemaking. I've got a mind for math and physics, but I'm a little slow at coming to my conclusions. With everything. "Special Kid" slow... almost. Okay, not that bad, but I'm almost always the last one to leave a test. Even out of the extended time kids.

Reading	The Chronicles of Thomas Covenant the Unbeliever, Book One, Lord Foul's Bane
Watching	Fringe. It's okay so far, but I've spotted one or two little cliches. Let's see how it goes.
Playing	I still haven't finished Half-Life 1, I'm playing through Kane & Lynch and GTA IV for achievements, Bioshock for achievements AND b/c I haven't finished it, and I have Fallout 3 which, once I start playing, I will never stop.
Listening To	Theme to Mega Man III (oh and I'm playing Mega Man III, the mobile version on my Sprint Rumor, which is kind of cool and kind of sucks. The phone, not the game.)

Read	The rest of The Chronicles of Thomas Covenant the Unbeliever
Watch	Watchmen, Blindness, 007: Quantum of Solace, Eagle Eye, Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time, Max Payne, and I'm curious about the Sherlock Holmes movie with Robert Downey Jr. ...I know there's more stuff I want to see but I don't remember.
Play	Spore, Fallout 3, Heavy Rain, MGS4 (I don't have a PS3... I don't know why I torture myself with PS3 exclusives), Left 4 Dead, Mass Effect, Ico, Final Fantasy VII, and (hopefully) Alone in the Dark 6... because I really enjoyed AitD5.
Listen To	stuff. You know, just whatever blows my way.

Bioshock 2 sea of dreams. I'm cautiously excited! What do you think of it?

Ya I've read about the Sims movie. Seems to me that Hollywood is really grasping for anything to turn into a film these days, but Bioshock? I'm always hesitant to be excited for game based movies because more often then not they're terrible. (shivers)Street Fighter.

I hear ya, Fallout 3 looks amazing. I'm looking forward to Left 4 Dead as well. I gotta say, I like your taste in games. Good choices for sure.

Spore is indeed awesome. I can't wait to get home from India so I can play it on my high end system instead of this work POS. ;)

Thanks for becoming a fan of Abigail's War, Sylyom! (I'm glad I provided something that exploded! :)

Thanks for fanning Mind Crimes. I can't wait to play Spore, too.
