Not that you'd notice as I didn't really post that much when I first joined but will be making amends now, to save the wear and tear on the search button here's a short(LOL) recap of my first post…..

 

I’ve been gaming for as long as I can remember, starting with the big cabinet arcade machines in my local arcade on Oxford Street, the fond memories of the cardboard on the floor and the smell of damp and mold…….

Progressed onto the ZX Spectrum and classics like Attic Attack and checkered flag before moving onto a C64, memories of late night Raid over Moscow and Beach Head marathons.

I think my love of RPG’s started on the Amiga with my all time favorite Eye of the Beholder that game had it all, crazy mazes and great enemies and levers to pull! I personally don’t think a dungeon isn’t worth its salt if there isn’t at least one lever to pull (personal joke regarding AD&D, which I will tell if you ask).  It was all PC from there on with likes of Baldurs gate etc, with a brief stint of Decent and most of the FPS games at the time.  Then I managed to get hold of a second hand PS1 and lost about six months of my life to Final Fantasy 7 and the other six to Metal gear solid, after that there was no looking back, had a N64 for Golden eye, Mario64 and Zelda OoT, Gamecube,PS2…etc…etc…etc.

So that was the brief version of my gaming life, I’m currently running a Wii and XBOX360 combo with a PS3 in the pipeline, just finished Splinter Cell: Conviction and Assassins Creed II and now waiting for Fable III, but may get hold of Red Dead Redemption to tide me over, or I may start Zelda again……..a bit boring but as it’s still daylight and the moon hasn’t hit me yet I’m still fairly normal,I find the claws tend to scratch the keyboard during the full moon….

 

Oh and before I forget….

 

Favorite drink is Rum and my favorite Biscuit is the humble chocolate bourbon.

Hi welcome back smile I myself have been absent for a while. But now i'm back too. I really loved eye of the beholder and Baldurs Gate. I loved they way the characters chatted amongst themselves especially Xzar the mad mage
