Hello Humanoids
Alright, so I'm a couple of years late but give me a break. This is my first post and I wanted to let you get to know me a bit. I go by the name of RiotMonster and I've been playing games since I figured out the Atari 2600. I honestly can't remember too much from those days. I CAN remember enjoying games like Asteroids, Centipede, Chopper Command, Frogger, Pac-Man, Parachute & of course, Space Invaders. My fondest memories of early video gaming were with the Sega Genesis, though. Yes, I was a Sega Fangirl. Owned & Loved the Sega Genesis, Saturn and Dreamcast. STILL DO AND WHAT?!
I am aware that posting here, I'm throwing myself into the shark tank of the Destructoid Army. I have been reading your articles and listening to the podcasts for a while now and I really do love how tight knit the community is here and finally want to join in, myself. I try not to be biased when it comes to video games and giving my opinions about different titles, genres and systems. I currently own the Atari 2600, NES, Super Nintendo, Nintendo GameCube, Nintendo 64, Nintendo Wii, Original Gameboy, Gameboy Color, Gameboy SP, Nintendo DS Lite, Sega Genesis, Sega Saturn, Sega Dreamcast, Sony Playstation, Sony Playstation 2, Sony PSP, Xbox, Xbox 360 Elite, & Xbox 360 Arcade. Pretty much all I am missing at the moment is a PS3. Now taking donations, btw. ;D
Since I was a tyke stumbling into the living room with my uneven pigtails, I have been addicted to video games. Raised in a world of food stamps and off-brand cereal, I learned to appreciate the finer things in life. I picked up that legendary controller with that glorious orange button, some of you might recognize as the Atari 2600 controller, and I was in love. Most little girls grew up making their Barbies fuck, I was learning the magical ways of the joystick. Years later, I spend the majority of my time, when not plopped in front of my TV with a controller in my hand, in video game forums or reading reviews on interesting, upcoming titles. I love games from hardcore, in-your-face, brutal, balls-to-the-wall, shooters like Gears of War to fun, carefree, colorful games like Super Paper Mario. I'm merely a Hardcore Gamer who owns a Nintendog. I see gaming as honestly my full-time job. I'm pretty sure I bleed pixels. Not to mention, I didn't skip school to go drink alcohol & have anal sex like the cool, POPULAR kids.. You'd find me in the arcade wasting my life savings (in quarters) on House of the Dead and Soul Calibur. To this day, I have no idea how I graduated when I was hardly ever in school.
OK U KNO ME NAO. GTFO!!
TL;DR Version
Best. gif. Ever.---------->
Welcome to Destructoid. I like you, but not in that way.
You may want to be careful with that Sexing gif at the bottom I am not sure if it is kosher with the rules. Other than that welcome to the site.
welcome and i love you, in that way.
Oh shit...falcon punched!
Wow.. My jaw is on the floor.
Welcome to Destructoid!
With that out of the way, I must say, craziest, quaziest, randomest, wildest, Friday-est, intro-post evah!
This will get several comments, btw.
Thanks for the Welcomes!! It really means a lot that you guys are cool as hell haha..
If Capt Falcon is pushing the rules, I'll get rid of him lol.. Promise.
By this: "Video Game Industry Analyst" you mean you work with focal groups, interviews and stuff like that?
Welcome to DTOID!
(( Fellow Child of the Night... ))
BTW, Nice Intro Post is Niiice! :)
You had me at "over 9,000 H-Jays later."
Welcome, and it's kind of odd being reminded that there are random people reading Dtoid without getting involved. Join up, unknown people who may or may not read this!
Yeah, the Falcon Punch thing might be pushing it.
Hey, nice post and I am glad to see someone else loves the Darkness game. Yeah, the multiplayer sucked, but the single player ruled! Crossing my fingers for a sequel...
I think we should turn this into a game. I say there will be exactly 44 total comments one hour after this comment.
I love you for loving Banjo Tooie
Welcome! You rule. I am totally jealous of your game room and all your retro stuff!
DAS BOOT!
Welcome to our rape den.
@Atlas Awww way to go on making me think I'd have a million comments by the end of the day!! XD
@Teta, 1) Nice bouncing fun sacks 2) No, a "video game industry analyst" is fancy talk for "I blog about vidya gaemz".
Thanks for everyone who welcomed me and what not!!
I commend ou an an incedible intro blog, indeed this blog is full of awesomeness, THIS is how intro blogs should be done, even if I have not done mine yet!:D
I would post the usual stuff, but it seems that you already know the ropes. :)
HOWEVER, that will not, I repeat NOT, stop me from wishing you a nice day. :)
Also, you sidebar is fucking great. :O :D
wow! best sidebar ever! today is great day for the cblogs
@ Bo-omb Lady
That wasn't aiming to be a compliment sadly; stick around long enough on the CBlogs and you'll know what I mean. This blog wasn't a fail blog like most GAM3R CH1X out there so the comments were underwhelming. I should have taken that factor into my estimation of comments.
Wow, so a chick makes an epic fucking intro and it doesn't even get 20 comments? Welcome to Dtoid! You are fucking topsauce!
Oh I almost forgot:
WHAT THE @#$% YOU TALKING BOUT NIGGA?!1! WE GOT PLAYSTATION AND XBOX!! PSH NIGGA!!1!
