Random Filler: 20 Random Questions!
CCGames Mike | 9:34 PM on 11.11.2007 0 comments


Well folks I've put the whole 'CCG Rant' on hold for the moment. It'll be a few days until the next part as I wish to research my subject in depth. This will work out with me using facts to supplement my opinion so I'm not talking out of my ass about a subject that I'm semi-knowledgeable about.

So instead I've decided to use a random filler post to help tide folks over. The filler in question? Why it's the popular 20 Questions filler! Granted most people HATE these as they tend to reek of attention-craving delusions. However I'm hoping that by sharing a few details about myself, I might give people on D-toid a better idea of the kind of guy I am.

Plus I might find some more friends to occasionally chat with on here that share an interest ^_^;.

ONTO THE QUESTIONS!

1. Favorite Food?
A. Sushi!

2. Favorite Song?
A. 'Dante's Inferno' by Iced Earth. It's a tad bit long (16+ minutes), but it has great vocals, awesome riffs, and is more of a string of bite-sized songs combined into one metal meal. You'll see what I mean if you listen to it ;D!

3. Favorite drink?
A. Bolthouse Farms' Mocha Cappuccino with Whey Protein.

4. PS2 GoTY?
A. Persona 3 easily!

6. 360 GoTY?
A. The Orange Box. Team Fortress 2 ALONE would be my GoTY, but add in Portal and it's a sweet, sexy Source-powered thrill for all.

7. Band I'd love to see live?
A. Sonata Arctica

8. Least favorite band?
A. Fallout Boy. I almost put Maroon 5, but they at least had a song I LIKED (Harder to Breathe).

9. Favorite Magic: The Gathering card?
A. Pit Spawn. In my old Necromancy deck it was one of my best weapons alongside Devouring Strossus. Granted they weren't really that well-liked, but I always have a soft spot for those two. Plus most of the people I played with that deck were always surprised to see Pit Spawn come into play. Ah..memories..(/nerd moment)

10. Favorite game quote?
A. 'That was doctor-assisted homicide!'

11. Favorite Adult Swim show?
A. Aqua Teen Hunger Force

12. Favorite 'adult' cartoon?
A. South Park (Drawn Together is a damned close second)

13. Least favorite show?
A. Charmed. It's thanks to that shit that I see 'Witchcraft' books at every fucking book store I go into. I wonder if half of these 'witches' realize that there was a love spell that involved feeding the person you loved your own piss mixed with ground beef? I guess they don't mention bat-shit crazy stuff like that in those oh-so-truthful 'tomes' do they?

14. Favorite movie?
A. Either Citizen Kane or Kung Pow

15. If you were on a deserted island, which ONE game would you have there to keep you occupied until your hopeful rescue?
A. Jeez this is a hard one. I guess I'd have to go with Shin Megami Tensei: Nocturne. I've easily put about 100+ hours into that game over the years, and I bet I could put in about a few hundred more =P.

16. Woman I'd most love to have a dirty, raunchy, fuck-a-delic adventure with?
A. Considering that I used a word like 'fuck-a-delic', I doubt I'd EVER have a chance with a lady like this one. Yet if I did, it would have to be Keira Knightly. 'Nuff said.

17. Favorite video game song?
A. 'Dancing Mad' from FF6

18. Favorite video game moment?
A. Blowing up Hitler's fucking head with a rocket in the NES version of Bionic Commando.

19. Least favorite game moment?
A. Zelda's 'oops sorry I overslept Link' line from the final fight in Wind Waker. Just when the game was getting good and serious, they thrown in some hackneyed Saturday morning bit that made me want to smash Zelda and Links' over-sized tumor heads together and let Ganondorf take over the damned world.

20. If you had one billion dollars, what would you do with it?
A. Use the money to research cryogenic freezing or to develop giant mechs for use in our wars. Actually scratch the robot one. If I've learned anything from Gundam Wing it's that the most emo, androgynous, and for the most part queerish guys will become badass mech pilots that will take out dozens of other pilots in short order. Can't very well empower the emotionals now can we?


So there it is. I'd add in something to the end here, but I'm a wee bit tired so I just want to say 'fuck it' and go to bed. Later folks.

 about me

Well I guess the first thing to get out of the way is that I am a game store employee. Luckiy my soul is saved from the evil of places like Gamestop and EB. Instead I work at C&C Games in Fremont, Ohio, a little slice of heaven in the hell of a podunk/retard town of asshats and wiggers.

Other than that I'm your average gamer nerd, my hobby luckily turning into something I can use at work. Even if my expertise seems to be playing the games my bosses can't stand, like RPGS and crazy ass 'unique' titles >.>;. Can't complan though, since working here has given me some more self-confidence and access to my bosses' vast experience in the gaming industry.

Plus I can get sweet swag, like my bitchin' Fable store display (which makes a nice night-stand XD) or the various posters that I eventually have to throw out because of my damn pets =P.

Besides that I can't think of anything else to put here, save for the fact that I love video game music. From the works of Mitsuda and Sakimoto, or even all the way back to Uetmatsu's early days with Final Fantasy, I have quite a large collection that I tend to listen to when either doing a few bits of writing or working =D.
