About Me
Hi little ones. My name is Andrés, I'm 21 and I've been playing computer games since I was 4. So probably I could kick your ass in a Wacky Wheels deathmatch.

The reason I decided to start this blog was that I have so much free time to waste, and I though that a excelent way of wasting time would be starting a blog of one the things a like the most... so here I am.

-Preferred games: RPGs (specially SRPG) and Adventures (classic style)
-Crap I don't like: MMORPG (they are like drugs and I don't like drugs) and most of the driving games
-Now playing: Phoenix Wright 3, Front Mission DS, Contra 4 (yes, I only have my DS here in Holland)
-Desiring so bad: SMT: Persona 3, The Nomad Soul, somethin else...

Or maybe this one?



Yeah, I'm sure you can recognize at least this last one. But could you tell the name of one of them? Well... I can. The first one is Gorgon, the young and mighty boy who pulled down a entire empire and then left with his best friend and his sister. And the second one is Kyuzo Kakihara, also know as Adell, a demi-fiend who beat Lucifer itself and create a demon world which he ruled on his own.

They, as many other unnamed video game characters, have as many names as players of the own game. And maybe is that what make them so special. I don't know what do you think about, but the characters I enjoyed the most are what I christen myself. I mean, Baldur's Gate hero, Diablo hero, SMT: Nocturne hero, Suikoden heroes... you give them a name and you play the whole game with them. It's a really good experience!

What about you, do you feel special empathy for these characters? Or maybe they are just another guys that even do not have names? If you have saved the Sword Coast and kicked Sarevok ass, I'm sure you know what I'm talking about.

i allways seem to sympathise with whoever I'm playing, named or unnamed, when the char doesn't have a name I'll refer to it as 'the guy from <insert GameName> with the <insert special feature here>'

eg: Kratos from God of war with the blades on chains that are excellent for making "préparée américain" :-)

I knew it was Neverhood but seriously is he called Klayman? That game brings back some good memories.
