About Me

Name: Peter
Home State: New York
Currently Residing In: Utah
Birthday: October 13th, 1985 (I'll always secretly consider the NES to have been a week-late birthday present to me from Nintendo.)

As far as video games go, I've been a gamer since I was two-and-a-half. I try to play whatever interests me, despite what other people think of those games. I don't consider myself to be a "casual" gamer, but I also don't take games unbelievably seriously. They're games, after all. They're meant to be enjoyed, not obsessed over. I never base whether I buy a game or not on a single review -- I have to try the game for myself to be totally sure.


CURRENT FAVORITES:

Metal Gear Solid Series (PS1, PS2, & PS3)
Fatal Frame Series (PS2, Xbox, Wii)
Shin Megami Tensei: Persona 3 FES (PS2)
Shin Megami Tensei: Persona 4 (PS2)
Metroid Prime Trilogy (Wii)
Dead Space (PS3, Xbox 360)
Uncharted 2: Among Thieves (PS3)
Anything Zelda-Related (Various Nintendo Platforms)




My most prized gaming-related possession: A factory-sealed copy of the original Famicom Disk System Zeruda no Densetsu (The Legend of Zelda).




Mario and I were tight back in the day, yo.

I am so happy in the face right now. (Shortblog) pedrovay2003 | 7:48 PM on 01.31.2012 11 comments

I'd like to add my personal good news to the plethora of excellent Phoenix Wright stuff that's been coming out this week. Today, I have FINALLY secured the last game in the series, which gives me the complete Ace Attorney series in one place! It took me forever to find these games after Jonathan Holmes introduced me to the series on the Wii, and now that they've been out for such a long time, they're all crazy expensive. After months of searching, I ended up finding them at various GameStops -- all in mint condition -- for less than $20 a piece. One of the games was also a birthday gift, so I actually only paid about $70 TOTAL for the entire series. But the centerpiece of the collection isn't any of the games, oh, no. It's this amazing stylus that was a preorder bonus for Justice for All in Japan that my girlfriend was able to track down online: IT'S HIS ARM, PEOPLE. HIS POINTING "OBJECTION!" ARM. And I don't even mind the fact that it looks like his finger is wearing a condom! I'm in my glory right now. If I had paid the full prices for these games (i.e., what they're worth NOW), I wouldn't be nearly as giddy. The fact that I paid next to nothing for the series is what's blowing my mind.
