LONG BLOG
Hello! Let me introduce myself...
I am a PC gamer. I don't play games on a console, and I couldn't play a shooter with a controller if my life depended on it. I have been into PC gaming since 2003, so I have had a lot of catching up to do with all kinds of great classics like Baldur's Gate and Diablo.
Before that I had an Amiga that I gamed on. I played the a variety of games, but mostly point-and-click adventures from Sierra and Lucas Arts. My favorite Amiga games are Empire, Lemmings, Future Wars, Buck Rodgers, and Battletech.
When I was a kid we had a Commodore 64, and we played things like M.U.L.E, Carmen Sandiego, Summer Games, and the Caveman-ugh-lympics.
My earliest gaming memories are on a Atari playing Tank and Pitfall on a black-and-white TV.
These days my favorite games are The Witcher 2, Dragon Age: Origins, EVE Online, Starcraft II, Mount & Blade, Titan Quest, and I've just started getting into Europa Universalis. I like playing older games, because they are classics for a reason. I don't hop onto the latest thing just because the cool kids are playing it, and i think that 90% of what's released these days is absolute crap.

He started out gaming on an old school Atari and a Commodore 64. Defender of the Crown was the shit back in those days. He would also play things like M.U.L.E, Carmen Sandiego, Summer Games, and Mars Saga.
Once he had his first Amiga, his fate was set to become a gamer. He mostly played point-and-click adventures from Sierra and Lucas Arts, but his other favorites were Empire, Lemmings, Future Wars, Buck Rodgers, and Battletech.
These days he also enjoys The Witcher 2, Mount & Blade, Titan Quest, Europa Universalis, FTL, Dungeons of Dredmoore, and LOTRO. He likes playing older games, because they are classics for a reason. He doesn't hop onto the latest thing just because the cool kids are playing it, and he believes that 90% of what's released these days is absolute crap.
Right now his home is right here on Destructoid. He has also done some writing for Front Towards Gamer and BitMob.
