Games

Games, where do I even begin...

It was the winter of 1986, my mom, grandma, Step Father, etc... thought it would be Funny to Wake US up at 4am Christmas day to get even with me(10 years old), and my Sister(6)...

Santa had brought the best gift I had ever gotten and from a material point of view still holds the throne...

Was an 8-bit NES with Zelda(Gold cartridge), Mario/Duck Hunt, Metroid... and a 19 inch Color TV for my room. I beat Zelda before new years eve.

Nintendo became my new obsession. Id come home from school and would disappear for hours. I would beat games and Trade them to friends, beat those games and trade back before my mom knew I was passing games around... in 1992 I got a SNES and it was nearly as bad.

in 1993 I discovered D&D and Comic books... the books for the second time. I had found Ron's Stash of Comics and Porno mags before Nintendo came into the picture.

then in 1994 I discoverd Magic;the Gathering.

my life was Video Games, RPG's, CCG's, Comic books, and movies... School? bah... who needs it. I could ignore everything and a week before the last day of school id Pull passing grades out of my ass.

Friends? Bah... who needs them. well other then to trade Comics and cartridges with...

in 1996'ish I found Computers, 1997 Diablo. then Came Starcraft, then EQ1, AO, and Finally WoW... I have spent more of my life playing Games then I have Sleeping.

So, as far as the Question about Who am I... we can for sure, and with out a Doubt put a Check mark next to "Gamer"
