Forums - General Discussion - "Newcomer's Introduction Thread"- What brought you here?

Ryan of the clan McSpurgeon suggested I re-introduce myself. So here I am. I'm Mothman and I was playing arcade games in bars long before many of you were even a twinkle in your parents eyes.

I tend to buy everything and I don't play favourites. Preferred genres, RPGs, Adventure, classic Survival Horror. The only current system I do not own is the Vita because:
1. it is too much money,
2.there aren't enough games I'm interested in.
3. I'm unemployed at the moment.

To be truthful it's more #3 than the others since I picked up a 3DS on day one and there were just so many great games to choose from. Did I mention I'm a sarcastic bastard? :D

So I'm old, sarcastic, often grumpy and I love video games, beer, music, beer, pop culture in general and beer. I don't post here too often but I will chime in if I feel like it.

Hello everyone, this is Radishhead. I'm not an "old" member (by neither my actual age, or the time I started posting here), but I am around here a fair bit. For someone who is regularly on the top 10 points chart on this forum, I get surprisingly few wall posts- feel free to say hello from time to time, I won't kill you! :O I'm a pretty lighthearted, and maybe slightly boring, member of the forum, but it takes all kinds to get the world spinning :p

hello to everyone

I havent had an avatar here yet. I'll add one soon!



my name is frank. ive been a gamer since pacman and pong. I used to be strict on what i played: GTA, FFVII-??, and Metal gear, but gaming has come a long way, now im willing to try anything with an open world, sandbox, and rpg style. Dragon Age Origins is the best game i ever played followed by L.A. Noire, however GTA and saints row are on a whole other level above my list of favorite games. (if that makes sense) and i dont care what you say they are the same game that just branched in different directions. I hate 1st person anything. I do enough first person stuff in real life, so when i play a game i want to see everything. (exept golden eye n64) i wish COD would just die already. I have high hopes for THQ in the next 2 years. i know that they used to release half assed games, but there future portfolio is looking like a further future list of AAA best sellers. and thats it for now
