About Me
DF is Doomsday Forte. That's me!

So, it looks like I play video games. But according to my backlog, I've a long long ways to go until I'm done with what all I have.



That said, I seem to cater more toward the handheld spectrum of the generations. I mean, I have a DS and a PSP (and an iPod Touch but that doesn't count), but all I have in terms of console is a Wii and a PS2 for this gen. And really, I'm fine with that. I have quite a few games as it is, and like I have the income to support getting a new system, accessories, and games on top of those I've yet to finish. =P I play handhelds more mainly because of the portability, and sleep mode is a godsend. No more "oh hell gotta go but there's no save point" woes like on consoles. That and there's always an opportunity to game somewhere.

And don't mention my computer. It's a laptop and really not designed to play anything relatively recent either.

Let's see...I'm into photography, though I'm by no means good at it. I let Auto take over on damn near everything, but I'm not really too concerned about learning the "right" way to do it. It's a digital camera and it's not the best on the market either, so I'm not concerned. I like cycling, though riding around town is getting boring because I've kinda been about everywhere and it's either small city or vast expanses of country roads where I'm bound to get lost.

Did I mention I've been writing a book? I've been at it for over a year, and it's slow going. Games and all, you know? The first draft's done, so at least that's a significant milestone completed. Maybe I'll post a link sometime so you all can read a bit of what I've done.

Hey, I'm writing a blog series. It looks like it turned into a weekly thing, whoops. Here are the entries thus far:

Battle of Backlog
#0: BoB Introduction
#1: Valkyrie Profile - Covenant of the Plume
#2: Knuckles' Chaotix
#3: Dungeon Siege
#4: Dungeon Siege II
#5: Dungeon Siege - Throne of Agony

This is very long and serves no purpose, but whatever. WastelandTraveler nearly explodes at GOTY, Jim Sterling even stops by to speak his mind, and we all try to create the next great big sports game. Do enjoy. WastelandTraveler was kind enough to provide us with a play-by-play of the events, despite Dtoid's own doing that too. So yeah.

And stop by the Steam chat. We miss you. :(
Edit: Looks like Dtoid doesn't like massive textdumps, so here's the entire thing: http://www.mediafire.com/?trncdqmzdnz Sorry! ^_^;

But yeah. We had a blast commenting on everything. I'd love to leave the whole thing here, but I don't want to piss off anyone who runs the site. Apologies!



Is this post awesome? Vote it up!

I was here...and it was amazing. Steamtoid chats need to become a regular thing on big events, and on different nights! Let's organize this shit.

:( TXT files killed my family then resurrected them and insulted their cooking.

Also, the point of this secret 13th Dragon is for the ability to sequence break. It doesn't ruin the game, partly because it's almost impossible to do without having completed the game once over before (At least to know where the hell you're going to be going afterwards). In that regard, what's wrong with finishing a game in 30 minutes that took you 6 hours the first time? That's pretty awesome in my book. SEO SEO Professionals Best Articles Directory

This is a smart blog. I mean it. You have so much knowledge about this issue, and so much passion. You also know how to make people rally behind it, obviously from the responses. Youve got a design here thats not too flashy, but makes a statement as big as what youre saying. Great job
