About Me


Welcome to my blog.

I'm a 26 year old gamer from Amsterdam, The Netherlands, who was brought up with PC games and Nintendo. My first gaming experiences where on the MSX and the C64 but the first game that I really remember playing was Prince of Persia on my 80286 PC.
After that I was hooked on games, especially the Lucas Arts and Sierra adventure games engaged me in a way I never thought possible before that. The day I saw a NES at a friends place with Super Mario Bros. on it I had to get one and after whining a lot my father finally got me one... Mario, Zelda, Metroid... they where all mine to play now and ate up so many hours of my childhood, I was a Nintendo kid and my love for Nintendo's games remain till this day.
I took a break from console gaming after the SNES era even though I stuck with PC games for the entire time. I had a gamecube which I didn't own many games for because I only bought it to play Metroid Prime. A few years back I bought a Nintendo DS on a whim. The DS rekindled my love for console gaming and got me to keep up with gaming news (here on Destructoid) and also got me to buy a Wii.

I also own a European TF2 server:

Host/IP: ares.ams-sec.org:27015

Some of my all time favourite games are:

* Monkey Island 1/2 (PC)
* Day of the Tentacle (PC)
* Civilization 4 (PC)
* Super Mario Bros. 3 (NES)
* Super Mario World (SNES)

I've just been playing it a few minutes and I'm already sold, the dialogue is shaping up to be as good as ever...

Indeed he is but he seems so confident as well, as if he only wants to give Apollo his first court experience...

And I love Apollo's excessive insecureness, made me laugh a few times, especially at the end...

That was fun. I don't think I can judge it only by playing that, but I'll buy it if only to see wtf is up with Phoenix.

Well, from that short bit I can see that I'll like Apollo. Not sure if he'll measure up to Phoenix but I like him enough. Furthermore, from the small part of the game I saw here, I have faith that the writers still know what they're doing and that they will deliver the fun/interesting stories we've become accustomed to in the AA series.

No objections here...

This game is going to be great with the return of the things unique to ds like fingerprinting.

Plus it's got Justice in it, so it can't suck!

Just finished PH3 last night, so it's weird to see Phoenix so differently. Also, spoilers. So I'm not playing through this now.

Awesome fine though. Wonder if this works on the Wii internet channel?

Phoenix's fate makes me sad.

@Jonathan

It's more a teaser than a spoiler... It stops very soon in the trial...
