hello
v0odka \| 7:43 PM on 04.21.2008	16 comments

although I've been daily checking the destructoid site since the beginning of this year, only now i've decided to create an account...

so... hey, what's up?

EDit: Well, since Sarin suggested that I should write more, here it goes:

I'm from Porto Alegre, Brasil. I always loved games, even though I've never had money to buy many of them (neither my dad wanted to buy some for me, hehe).

I've heard about destructoid after the "Kane & Lynch" incident at Gamestop (or cashwh0re, i dunno). I pretty much I LOL'd a lot. What I like much about dToid is that it's funny and at the same time very informative about games and stuff. Plus, it seems to have a very strong community, so I found that really interesting.

Well, hope this is better now, hehe.

Is this post awesome? Vote it up!

Get some more stuff up.

Comments policy

Destructoid is an open discussion community. You don't need to "audition" to post a comment - just speak your mind. We respect differing opinions on the site, so have at it. Be smart, funny, insightful, clueless, or cute -- but back it up with substance. Keep your cool, keep it fun. We only ask that you act respectfully and above all: don't be a troll and ruin it for everyone else. Don't bring down gamers or we'll, you know, gently shoot you in the face and stuff you into a flaming mailbox. Each comment is your opportuntity to make this community awesomer. Is that even a word?

Avoiding the banhammer only requires common sense: spamming, trolling, racism, NSFW stuff, and other forms of sucking will not be tolerated. If anyone is griefing please report abuse. Be good. Don't suck!

about me

This is Me:

My name's Arthur Johnson, I'm 21 and I'm from Porto Alegre - RS - Brazil.
I'm currently studying civil engineering (lame!) and hopefully one day I'll stop failing and finally graduate :P

I own a Mega-Drive and a Xbox 360 (which I don't own many games 'cause they are really expensive, something around 200 bucks).

I also love girls, beach, surf and soccer. GR�MIO FBPA = Best soccer team in the world...

I DO play sports (surf and soccer, basically), even though I'm definitely a nerd (a pretty one, but still a nerd).

I also got an account at DeviantArt, which is abandoned: http://gearlock.deviantart.com

Games I own:

Halo 3
Gears of War
Need for Speed Carbon
Top Spin 2
Call of Duty 3 (there was no 4 when I bought it, ok?)
The Darkness
Fifa 08

+ a lot of Mega-Drive games, in which only 4 are actually good: "Sonic, the Hedgehog", "Moonwalker", "Ghouls N' Ghosts" and "Quackshot"

As for the PC I got: Quake III Arena, Age of Empires I and II, Diablo II, Oddworld Abe's Oddysee, Half-Life 2 and Doom�.

I used to love playing Quake3 online, but then my connection decided to suck, thanks to ADSL and a crappy wi-fi system I have here at my home (we have more than one PC), so it started to lag so much, that i quit playing that. I also have this same problem on the Xbox Live, I really don't know what to do. Maybe buying a new router.

and that's it. (i'll probably make a blog entry ranting about my connection soon)

By the end of the year I plan to go to NYC, maybe there I'll find some cheaper games, and be able to buy CoD4, The Orange Box and the upcoming Gears of War 2 and GTA4.
