I'm Jarod from around DC and I'm currently a full time student at George Mason University majoring in IT. I grew up on Nintendo systems and PCs so I tend to be a Nintendophile, but I don't see myself as a die hard fanboy. I've owned every Nintendo system since the SNES (I've played a fair share of NES at friend's houses an such as well) except the Virtual Boy and the Gameboy Advanced SP. My current systems include a Wii, PS3, and PC. I won my PS3 in a contest for a certain video game blog. Now I just have to decide whether or not I want a 360. The only genre of games I don't really play a lot of is sports, with a few exceptions, but my favorite genre is RPGs. I also like to play a lot of retro games and MUDs. I hate making "favorite [instert item here]" lists so I'm gonna skip that part. Things I like besides games include lacrosse, water skiing, playing around in Flash and Photoshop, camping, and reading web comics.
