Hey! I'm a 23 years old man and I'm living in Greece. Believe it or not, video games are not banned here so, stop asking.
Another year in my life, another correction to my blog description.
Hi, I'm Marioland and I'm a gamer for a long long time. Greece sucks when it comes to gaming. Not only the gaming industry has a great lag, but the titles and peripherals cost all your fortune. It's not too bad though since internet is here. (and I'm not talking about piracy)
Gamers here in Greece as as lame as ever. There are people who claim themselves hardcore just because they spend their precious life in World of Warcraft. There are also some dumb-asses who bought a PS3 just because for the status quo. It's a bad situation where you hear bullshit from all the fanboys that doesn't even play the damn thing.
There are also youngsters who can't even afford to finish the game themselves. My younger cousin finished Valkyria on the PS3 watching the solution from youtube. Care to read a Walkthrough you say? No, man, no extra effort for reading. This is video and this is lazy ass.
But, hey! It's not that bad! I have some good friends that play nice games and know what to do. They are also culturists like me and think about stuff before they start to talk. It's always enjoyable to find such people around, especially when you want to avoid the assholes of Xbox Live.
I'm also new to the gaming journalism. I contribute to a greek gaming site called [url=http://game20.gr]Game2.0[url] where I post news, reviews and editorials. It's all in greek so, it will be kinda greek to you.
I found out that this kind of journalism is the worst place to be from all the above. We have the worst sites (only a couple are good including ours) and some certain magazine is so bad that makes you cry. The gaming journalists here are some stupid elitist guys who believe that their word is the law. The bias and the fanboys get in the way of the information they put on their writings. I have already stalked once since they have trolled on one of my texts. It's that bad.
Anyways, I own a DSlite, a PSP, an Xbox 360 and a Wii. Feel free to ask me for friendship on these platforms. It would be nice to get my ass handed by someone from Dtoid.
