Whats up Destructoid?
My name is Sean McLoughlin and I've been sent from the futurepast to march with my fellow robots to victory. For Niero!
My favorite games can be numerous (as I'm sure is true of most here at Dtoid), but my all time favorites are Final Fantasy VI, Diablo II, Bioshock, Braid, Demon's Souls and Metal Gear Solid. I never rent games and I rarely trade in or sell the games I buy so I have a pretty massive game collection. For the sake of space I'll just list the consoles and portables that I own: NES, SNES, Genesis, Game Gear, Game Boy Pocket, Game Boy Advance, Playstation, N64, Playstation 2 (one original which is broken and a Slim), Dreamcast, Gamecube, Xbox, Neo Geo Pocket, Nintendo DS, Nintendo DSi, PSP 2000, Xbox 360 (red-ringed once), a fully backwards compatible Playstation 3 and a Wii.
When I'm not in school or gaming you can probably find me reading a science fiction/fantasy novel or an issue of Wired or some such. My favorite authors are George RR Martin, Terry Brooks, Garth Nix and Terry Goodkind. I'm also a big fan of movies, my favorites right now are The Departed, Smoking Aces and Crank, although my all time favorite movie/director is Reservoir Dogs/Tarantino. I don't watch much TV and if I do its usually Discovery channel or Science Channel. I love Professional Wrestling, Y2J SAVE US! My favorite band is obviously The Grateful Dead although my musical tastes are quite varied. I listen to everything from T.I. to Metallica to Toby Keith. Also, MC Chris FTMFW!
Bored? Why not try one of the games I've made:

My GOG.com collection is really starting to fill out. The title pretty much says it all. In honor of their one year anniversary, GOG.com is having a buy one get one sale on all interplay titles. This is quite a deal. There are some really good Interplay games on GOG.com, including The Freespace series, The Earthworm Jim games, The original Fallout games, The Decent Series, the list goes on and on. Go here for more details and here for a full list of interplay games on GOG.com. Personally, I picked up Decent 1+2, Decent 3 and it's expanison, Redneck Rampage, Stonekeep, Messiah and Giants: Citizens of Kabuto (all for less than $20!), what's looking good to you guys?

These games all bring me back. Good times.

Fallout 1 has stood the test of time exceptionally well and surprisingly no one has really tried what the first two did not even Fallout 3 for awhile. The best way description of the first two Fallouts is to visualize an RPG wherein there are only 3-4 critical moments necessary to complete the game but somewhere like several dozen additional moments that can shape or alter who you achieve or approach said critical moments. As well as other small and big details such as NPC memories and some seriously detailed dialog trees.
Really the only game to coming close to emulating Fallout 1 & 2's gameplay and intricate details was Arcanum in 2001 and even then Fallout 1 & 2 are still better than it.
Me too. I remember reading about Mesiah in EGM a looooong time ago and I never got to try it. I'm installing it now. =D
@Ygro Wok
Sorry but I don't really know. I only played a little bit of it before going back to Fallout 1 + 2. I bought the three of them when they were all on sale for $10.
@Holyetheline
I've never played Redneck Rampage but it's title has always left me curious. I'm glad I'll finally be able to see what it's all about.
@Ron Burgandy
I can always put myself in the the era these games came out mentally so that I can enjoy them as much as I would have back then. And yes Fallout is totally worth it if you can get past the dated graphics. The game is one of the deepest I've ever played.
@Takeshi
Why, you are correct my good sir! It's free on GOG.com! The other free games in my header image are Teen Agent and Lure of the Temptress. All three are rather good adventure games although Beneath a Steel Sky is the only must play out of the bunch. Conrad did a write up on the front page awhile back, if anybodies interested. I think it was part of the red-rose tinted series.
@Tsunamikitsune
Whatever you do, don't get Earthworm Jim 3D, it's really really bad. I'm sure you already knew that, I'm just making sure.
I ended up grabbing Earthworm Jim 1&2, MDK, Messiah, and Descent 1&2. I'm already aware of Earthworm Jim 3D's suckiness so I passed on it. Besides, if I really want to play it, I can play my N64 copy. >_>
