FPS Rantings

Tagged! When do I get to eat?

by Mike on May 22nd, 2008

I was tagged last week by Aiza, our “hardcore” casual gamer (is there such a thing?) at Gamerlite. It took me almost 10 days to reply because traffic was such a bitch over at Liberty City. It’s refreshing to be on the receiving end of a meme this time because I remember being the instigator of such tags in our channel during a couple of occasions.

On to the questions!

1. Name and Job/s (if you want to share it) – Mike, video games channel editor at b5media.
2. You’re currently playing? – Grand Theft Auto IV, The World Ends With You, and NBA 2K8. I have Chronicles of Riddick: Escape From Butcher Bay, Gears of War, and Baldur’s Gate installed in my PC hard drive, but Niko Bellic demands a lot of attention.
3. Favorite game genre/s – RPG, FPS/third-person shooter (obviously!), adventure, and sports games.
4. Favorite game/s of all time – Gabriel Knight(PC), X-Com(PC), Bionic Commando(NES), Castlevania 1-3(NES), and Deus Ex(PC).
5. Favorite game character/s – Gabriel Knight and HK-47.
6. Earliest and fondest memory of gaming? - Earliest and fondest are two different things for me. Earliest: playing Combat, Asteroid, and Space Invaders in the Atari 2600 with my cousins; Fondest: Finishing Final Fantasy for the NES in one sitting due to the Philippine blackouts of the 1990s.
7. Most hated gaming moment/s? – Any multiplayer session with complete strangers.
8. Gaming gadgets/consoles you own/owned – Game & Watch, Nintendo Family Computer, Sega Mega Drive, PlayStation, PlayStation 2, PlayStation 3 with FragFX, Nintendo DS with Wi-Fi adapter, GameBoy Advance. I play a lot of games for the PC, but I don’t think they count since it’s not a dedicated gaming device. If the PC counted, then we might as well put in my iPod and mobile phones in the list.
9. If you had a “gamer’s shirt” what would the color and design be? (or if you have a favorite gamer shirt, what does it look like?) – I have a gray shirt with the 1UP icon plastered in front.
10. Gaming stuff on your wish list? – all Guitar Hero games and wireless guitar, the complete Rock Band set, Gabriel Knights Mysteries, a couple of DualShock 3 controllers, a U.S. version 60GB PlayStation 3 (I own an Asian 40GB one), a limited edition Metal Gear Solid 4, Fallout 3, and ultimately: an Xbox 360 that NEVER EVER goes into RRoD, if there is such a thing.
