Gaming over the years

[rounds1]

Here goes...

1 How long have you been gaming and whats your fist game?
I won't say how long because I'm old. My first game was actually Pong and it was on a "console" (I guess you could call it) that played Pong and a few other Pong-like games only. It was bulky and white and had a knob on either side, which were the controllers. I then graduated to systems like Colecovision and the TI, Texas Instruments, console and also, when it 1st became available, I got the Atari 2600.

2 What's your favourite console and why?
I'd have to say that the 360 is my favorite console. Not necessarily because of the games but because of XBL, which gives me the feeling that: A) I'm not the only old man who plays video games still; and B) I'm part of something bigger. It's also nice to always be connected to friends and such. That's a feeling no other console's given me over the years; though, there certainly have been plenty of great consoles in the past.

3 Whats your favourite game and why?
I can't really answer this, but maybe something like Civ III.

4 What do you think about next gen console and the games on them?
I think they all bring something good and unique to the table. You couldn't go wrong with any of them, but of course I prefer the 360 overall.

5 And finally, what games are you looking towards in 2008?
Fable 2 mostly. I loved the 1st and the 2nd looks to only improve on its formula by a billion times over.

1 How long have you been gaming and whats your first game?
Been gaming for 22 years now my first game was some top-down scrolling shoot-em-up I don't even remember the name of.


2 What's your favourite console and why?
PC, I count this as a console since I can play on it. (NES is at a close second place).

3 Whats your favourite game and why?
Fallout Fallout (video game) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

4 What do you think about next gen console and the games on them?
My opinion is that Wii is the only "nex-gen" console the other two are just same as before but prettier.
Both PS3 and 360 currently have game that I would consider good, but I can't think of any game that is exclusive to one or the other that interests me.
Wii is in a league of it's own since games play different from the other two, having that said I by no means say that all games on the Wii are great or good it has a bunch of shovelware but so does the others too. And of course it has Mario, Zelda and Metriod.

5 And finally, what games are you looking towards in 2008?
Only one I look forward to (even if I'll probably get and play many others), but the only one I'm anticipating is Spore.

-My fist game is Marvel vs Capcom 2, Dreamcast/JP port version.

-My First game was Astro Warrior for the Sega Master System, (though Fantasy Zone was close behind. OPA-OPA!)

-The PS1. I have a lot of memories, good and bad, tied into that console. It was the first console I saved for and bought myself when I was sixteen.

-Final Fantasy VII. Knights of the Round summoning materia. I love to hate Ruby weapon. Ya know?

-Next gen consoles are freakin' expensive. Waaaaay too expensive for what we're getting. Seems like innovation hasn't caught up to the novelty of owning the "next-big-thing." *sigh* I do love my SOCOM though...

-MGS4, SOCOM: Confrontation, Star Wars: The Force Unleashed
