1. When did you start playing games?
I started playing games back in the late 80's, when I was like 4 or so.
2. What was the first console you owned?
Nintendo Entertainment System.
3. Do you remember the first game you played?
Super Mario Bros.
4. What was the first handheld you owned?
Game Boy.
5. Which console(s) do you have at the moment? Including handhelds.
NES, SNES, Game Boy, Game Boy Color, Game Boy Advance, Nintendo 64, Gamecube, Wii, PS1, PS2, Xbox, Xbox 360.
6. Ever bought a console at its launch?
The Gamecube and Wii, though only because they launched like right around my birthday and weren't as expensive as most consoles.
7. Ever waited in line to buy a console?
Yes, I waited in line for both the Gamecube and Wii. I was 1st in line for the Gamecube, and like 79th in line for the Wii. That should give a bit of an indication as to how wild the Wii craze was.
8. If you have a 360 do you pay for an online subscription? If not, why don't you? If you have any other console would you pay for online?
Yeah, I pay for Xbox Live. I'd pay for PS3's online service if I had one and if it'd greatly improve the service.
9. Have you ever played a MMO game?
Nope.
10. What is your favorite and second favorite console and why?
Yikes, tough question. I guess I'm gonna have to go with SNES for the favorite, and PS2 for the second. The SNES was one of the greatest gaming consoles ever made. Tons of great games. The PS2 has just an amazing library.
11. About how many games do you have for each of your consoles?
I'm just gonna divide my number of games total by the number of consoles I own. On average, I have about 15 games per console, however in actuality, for some consoles (like the PS2) I have far more games than other consoles.
12. Favorite character in a game?
Uhh..... ever? Jeez, man. That's a very difficult question. I don't have the slightest idea. I think Solid Snake and Kratos are pretty rad. Lots of love for Donkey Kong and Banjo too.
13. What is your favorite game genre?
Overall, I would say my favorite is action games.
14. Your top 3 game franchises?
Hmm... Let's see here. GTA, Zelda, Mortal Kombat.
15. Your top 3 games? Your not allowed to say 2 of the same franchise.
The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, and it's a toss up between Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 and Banjo-Kazooie for 3rd.
16. What game has given you the best online experience?
Halo 2, no question about it.
17. Ever cried while playing a game?
No. Definitely not.
18. In your opinion, which game has the best story?
Best story? Man! Harsh. I'm gonna say God of War. I really loved the story and atmosphere of that game.
19. Do you prefer game-play over graphics?
Absolutely. Gameplay is unquestionably the most important aspect of a game.
20. Ever regretted buying a game?
Only a few, actually. I try to pick my games carefully. I regret buying Viewtiful Joe, which was loved by critics but not so much by me. Also, Soul Calibur 2, mainly because it just didn't hold my interest for long and I've hardly played it. There may be several 360 games I purchased that I might regret soon. I need to give some of them more of a chance before deciding.
21. What game has the best music?
Grand Theft Auto: Vice City. The greatest licensed game soundtrack ever.
22. Ever used cheat codes to advance in a game?
Anyone who plays video games has done this. For me, it's not something I do regularly. I've done it with Twisted Metal Black and Doom 3.
23. Have you ever been at a LAN party?
No way, dude. No way.
24. What is the longest gaming session you have had?
I don't know, probably around 6 hours.
25. Have you ever attended a video-game tournament?
Nope.
26. Have you ever played a game you aren't allowed to play because of its rating?
When I was little, my mom made me return Duke Nukem when she found out I could use the urinal and visit a strip club. Didn't mind the violence at all, though. Funny, isn't it?
27. Have you every bought a special edition version of a game?
Yeah, a few. Halo 2, Mortal Kombat: Deception, Grand Theft Auto IV. Come to think of it, that might be it.
28. What game are you looking forward to the most?
As far as games coming out this year go, I'd say Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts and Bolts. If we're talking about games coming out some time in the future, I'm really looking forward to Resident Evil 5, and Far Cry 2.
29. Do you consider yourself a fanboy of a particular console?
Nope.
30. PS3, 360 or Wii?
Right now, I'm gonna say 360. Though, the PS3 is gaining steam and I think many people underestimate it.
