That's me. I really like zombie stuff, pretty much every type of video game, drawing things (It's been like six months), play music in a band, and am a geek. Very much so, in fact. Also, I drew the Maxx that I'm using in my header. It's going to stay there until I hit some inspiration for some video game artwork.

My job is to make the computers and electronics at my work rise again from the dead. It's alright, as jobs go. Of course, since I'm heavily into computers, I either have or have had every major type of personal computer known to man... so if you ever want to discuss computer things, I can probably have a lengthy conversation about it.

I live in the mostly sunny Central Florida, and have for about 16 years now. I'm pretty sure I'm too old to be playing games anymore, but I really don't see that ending any time soon and hope it never will.

I have a gaming PC (C2D E6550 2.33Ghz/8800GTS 512), PS2, Dreamcast, N64, DS, PSP, Xbox 360 and PS3, but I have owned an Odyssey2, Aquarius, ColecoVision, NES, SNES, Genesis, GameBoy (as well as Advance and SP), PS1, Xbox, and a Wii as well. They've all either been broken, sold, or have been grudgingly traded in for the "next best thing" due to lack of funds to buy them outright.

I read fanatically, and even though I have plenty of different books there are several that are read over and over again. Pretty much anything that William Gibson or Terry Pratchett have done are my favorites, but there are plenty of writers that still get my attention. To be certain, I'm happy Rhianna Pratchett is writing for videogames.

Am I missing anything?

I just recently borrowed Disgaea: Afternoon of Darkness for the PSP from a friend, since he said that it was very close in game play to Jean D'Arc, a game that I rather loved playing due to the graphics and storytelling. However, one of my other friends also let me borrow the three disc set of Disgaea's anime series that she had.

So, if I watch the anime... am I going to want to bother playing the game all the way through or is it a different story?

I mean, I will probably play it again later at my leisure even if it's the same story, but I'd just like to know if I should avoid the anime and focus on the game to fully enjoy it.

The story is differen't in most parts while some is similar. Anime -takes place outside of the castle. Game -You start at the castle and it your main base for everything(buying items, creating characters,etc.). Also when certain characters appear is different.

The anime has a crummy ending, imo...
