What if I've finally turned into what they've always said I would turn into? A maniac. A psycho killer. A guy who enjoys quoting Sin City.

In a brief description, I play all genres of games. My personal favorites are and always will be platformers and shoot 'em ups. Galaga is probably the first shoot 'em up I have ever played and still manages to hold my attention to this day. Platformers, jeez, far too many for me to name. There are a few FPSs I like, but only if they manage to be different enough from the rest. I have my fair share of fun with other genres as well. Except fighters, I tend to be pretty bad at those but it still doesn't put a hamper on the amount of fun I can get from them.

I was born in 1990, my first video game system was a Sega Genesis and it was probably the best thing I had ever had the chance to play. As the years went, as did my interest in the video games field. Parents and relatives usually got me game consoles for birthday and christmas gift, you wouldn't believe how excited I was when I got my first SNES. My older brother and I did all we could to pool money together to buy GameBoys (Possibly a GameGear at some point as well) and eventually the Playstation 1 and 2. I can safely say that I have interacted with every Nintendo, Sega, Sony, Microsoft, and a few Atari consoles and handhelds at least once. As of now, I still play games as often as I can, despite my game library has not been expansive as it once was when I was in my "prime." Since GameFly and various other rental places popped up, I have still been able to keep playing to my heart's content.

As of now, college usually eats up some days. Whenever I'm not doing college activities, I am improving my drawing abilities, watching movies, expanding my musical tastes both new and old, partying with friends, eating cultural food and, of course, playing games.

And I am a sucker for just about anything film noir, enough so that I occasionally write in that style. Rad stuff.

LotR Swag: A Look at the One Ring That Comes With It (It's Ultra Stylish)
Jack Maverick | 7:41 PM on 05.12.2009 6 comments


I give special thanks to a man named Ralph Bakshi, for directing this terrible movie for without it, I may not have had a chance at winning this contest. Or I won because not too many people entered that contest. It's a shame because the winnings are so awesome.

Anyway, today was a cloudy day up in my town. It seemed as if it was going to be a boring day with nothing to do. At least, not until I checked the mail just earlier and found a package in my mailbox.

I open this package carefully (as I do want to keep the address intact, as I have special plans for it in the future...) and find this



I like the front of it as it's all sparkly, indented and cool-looking. Lovable guy and overall weirdo Magnalon did a more in-depth look at this stuff. I'm here more for the One Ring.



The tantalizing mystery that lies within it intrigues me, as it is capable of bringing the wearer of the One Ring complete control of the other Rings, bringing all sorts of destruction and chaos into the world. So let's give it a wear.



Well, certainly no complete control over everything to be seen here. Just a way to show me that I can't pull off this ring wear look to save my life. Luckily, there is a chain I can attach to it and wear around my neck.



Now that's what I call styling.

Anyway, Dtoid contests are fun as hell to join. Not participating in them automatically makes you an uncool cat. And you don't want to be one of those.

Shit, man.

I really want the one ring. I'd wear it, since my class ring says gaming on it.
