| Introduction | I was born in 1987 and grew up home schooled on an organic farm. I have gone to university for both Software Engineering and Computer Science, but only managed to stay interested for a few semesters of both, and have dabbled in computer technician work. But now have returned to my roots and live on an organic farm were I frolic with the animals and toil in the fields surrounded by nature. I started playing games with the NES and computer, mostly playing platforming games; Mostly missing all the classic adventure games, which I am currently trying to catch up on. I love playing games in any genre not including sports and scary horror. I particularly like indie games, with my favourite being Cave Story; RPGs, with my favourite being Super Mario RPG; And adventure games, with too many favourites to mention, but Syberia always manages to make it to the top my mind when considering the question as it was the first great adventure game I had ever played. When not gaming, writing, or keeping up to-date on gaming news I spend my time reading fantasy and sci-fi novels, watching movies, TV shows, anime, and browsing the Web on such sites as Slashdot. |
