    Final Fantasy 7, The good old days

    Legend of Dragoon and Legend of Legaia were two of my first favorites, then my friend in school got me hooked on the hype of a new game coming out, the newest final fantasy - it was called FF7 and it took place in a grunge-city slums type atmosphere that felt steampunk in a way (the MAKO...

    Whats your favorite FPS ever?

    I have to agree Planetside was a bunch of fun as well. I just remember getting into FPS hardcore at a later date, I was a heavy MMORPG player and my friend recommended me to some good CS games. CS has to be mentioned.

    What do you guys snack on while gaming?

    Most of the time cookies, crackers, or pieces of 'block' cheese (mozzarella especially.) I like to save that hunger for main meals.

    What do you do when you are bored?

    Earn money online, talk to friends, play Xbox 360, Magic the Gathering, try to find a real job and it's failing. Other than that movies and anime.

    What are you guys listening to right now?

    Hacking To The Gate. Steins;Gate was such a beautifully done anime. Even had me in tears at the end when he was frustrated with Mayuri (For good reasons!)

    Favorite Open World Game(s)?

    I played MMORPGs because I need "Open world" environments to feel 'like I'm inside' the game. This is also true of the GTA; vice city mainly was my love. Flying around in the tank. Murdering people in GTA:5's online. Wherever the genre or game goes, I love open-worlds. It's fun to interact with...

    Have Games taught you anything?

    Pay to win can be told of anywhere though, real life or games. People who say money can't buy happiness never had an unlimited supply of money. I'm pretty sure I could buy happiness. LOTS of Happiness. :rolleyes: Hmm. They taught to me to take life slow and read down into the long-term, as well.

    Any other interests aside from gaming?

    I am fat, so I guess I prefer less-intensive exercises. Won't sugar-coat it, but working the mind feels nice. Not to say I don't exercise or walk miles on end at points (no car, friends - walk everywhere) Hmm. Dreaming up get rich quick schemes.

    What is everyone playing currently?

    Care to share more about this? sounds vaguely interesting.. not like my google finger is broken mind you but I like to have opinions from other people who've played. Right now, just trying different games to see what works and what doesn't.

    What is everyone playing currently?

    Currently playing Destiny, but I need to get my desktop up and operational so I can play the MMOs I so crave and miss. Console games are fun; but with only up to 8 player parties it feels so limited online. I miss massive crowds. Not the same people each time. Also emulating on my PSX.

    Where is everyone?

    If I don't play online games, I've been emulating alot lately. I've been playing old PS1 games on my PSX emu, like Legend of Legaia, Legend of Dragoon, FF7/8, Castlevania: Symphony of the Night, and plenty more.

    Any other interests aside from gaming?

    I love to read. I also love to work online trying to make money to help pay for things since I live in the middle of nowhere with noway out and I have no job history worth of note, so I get the snub everywhere in favor of someone else. All. The. Time. So I said F' it, there had to be a better...

    Destiny

    My brother is playing it beside me right now, pvping. I like the fluidity of their PVP. I just wish they'd offer custom game-types like they did in Halo. Ability to tweak map settings. Ability to load what map you want instead of it being "random" (we know the "RANDOM" likes to give the same...

    Child of Light

    Replay is fun - try experimenting with different parties, a bunch of comboes have a bunch of strengths inside that game. I liked their level and talent system it felt natural and well designed. I would like to see it applied to future RPGs.

    If all electronic games were unusuable tomorrow, what games will you play?

    I'd also tweak my garden (since it's winter here) plans for the spring (which I'm going to do anyways) and not let anything interfere with my gardens outside. I like to grow stuff to munch on.

    First PS1 game?

    all I remember to this day was the Arena and how much time I spent grinding up to get the only accessory I didn't want, the chicken king (lets you run everytime) and then gambling in a casino. I remember just idling to this music too:

    Any other interests aside from gaming?

    Movies with friends, either in theatres, or at home. Hunting, 30/30 rifle and a bow, makes no difference. I only kill what I personally eat though, I do not believe in sport hunting. Other than that American Football as I'm a Steelers fan (NW PA, after all). Drawing and reading come to mind...

    Rate the Gamecube on a 1-10 scale

    8. I loved it. Had plenty of games, but limited features and those little disks were so easy to lose! :rolleyes: hah. I kid of course. Everyone who had one had them in cases or those binders with plastic sleeves anyways. Limited memory card features and storage was a drawback, but I NEVER had a...
