As someone who probably spends too much time ranting about insane little things in games to his friends, I figured I was qualified to start writing a blog about insane little things in games to random people online. (This may be in fact due to the complete lack of required qualifications).
Anyway, I'm a college freshman who is way too into video games, sci-fi, anime, and depressing non-typical fiction in general. I figure what sets me apart from 90% of serious gamers currently is my complete inability to play FPS's. Seriously, Modern Warfare 2 gives me massive, massive headaches. And not of the "bad game design" sort, but of the actual, brain-hurting kind. Plus, my inability to hit the broad side of a barn with a shotgun while five feet away from it with the gun tied to the building and a trained team of snipers coaching me through the shot has something to do with it too.
Also, I tend to play games in a roughly Dr. Manhattan non-linear time sense. As such, I will play the game that was hot three years ago, or some little game no-one has ever heard of. I think I played a game from 2020 once, but that may just have been the result of an intense fever hallucination.
Like most people who begin blogging online, I will probably post one or two posts, forget all about this, and go back. Stating this now proves three purposes.
- If it is true, well, at least I admitted it.
- If it is not, in a year from now, we can all look back on this and laugh.
- If I should be heavily injured tommorow in a bizarre accident involving rubber bands, twelve pounds of provolone cheese and a turkey baster, well, it should make for interesting evidence at the hearing.
So, anyway, here I am. Rock you like a.. hey.
