    The genre you never really cared for

    I love fighting games. Currently punishing myself with King of Fighters '96. But OT, I hate strategy games and sports games. I really like having direct control of a character in game, and these don't allow for that. I'm also pretty much off first person shooters, (minus DX:HR and HL2).

    Games that Lived up to the Hype

    Sleeping Dogs, I got so hyped for that game when I first heard the premise (as True Crime: Streets of Hong Kong). Then it got lukewarm reception at e3, so I was nervous. Now I own it and it's everything I had hoped it would be.

    What gets you up in the mornings?

    Beautiful, beautiful scrubs reference. Love Dr. Cox. That line was one of his best. OT: Most days I wake up before my alarm, but I'm a morning person. If I don't, my alarm is across the room and progressively gets louder AND more frequent.

    recommend some metal songs/bands

    Some bands I really like are Edguy, Avantasia (these two have the same singer), Sonata Arctica, Van Canto, and Nightwish.

    Poll: Altair, Ezio or Connor

    I'd have to say Ezio, followed by Haytham. When 3 switched me to Connor I kept wondering why Haytham couldn't be the protagonist of three (don't answer that, I know the obvious answer). After that, Connor, then AC1 Altair. I did quite like ACR's Altair... They gave him some personality and...

    [AC3 Spoliers!!] So for those of you who have played AC3...

    I have not finished the game yet; I love it so far. But I want to talk about the sequence 3 twist. This threw me for a loop. I questioned everything I had done in the game up to that point. I felt like a traitor. And then I realized that AC3 brought back the question of who really is...

    The Five games that define you as a gamer

    No particular order here. 1. Metal Gear Solid 3. My favourite stealth game of all time. The story is definitely the best in the series, and the setting and gameplay are great. 2. Deus Ex: Human Revolution. Another great stealth game. This one has probably my favourite futuristic setting of...

    Better to be single or in a relationship?

    This is one of those things that is incredibly dependent on the person. For me, being in a relationship makes me happy. Some of my friends are completely happy being bachelors. It just depends on personality and what you want out of life.

    The Most Mishandled IPs/Franchises in Gaming?

    Do you look older or younger than you are?

    I look older than my age. I'm 20, people are supposed to be ID'd until they're 25. I am never ID'd unless I bring my gf with me... who is one year younger but looks about 2 years younger than her age. It's weird.

    Username Origins

    Mine comes from combining Oblivion (the song by Mastodon) and Demon's Souls, which I was playing a LOT of at the time.

    Skyrim Game of the year?

    I bought Skyrim when it first came out, on PS3. Afterwhile, I had no time, and ended up selling the game. Lately I've been thinking about rebuying the game, but I think that if there's going to be a GOTY edition I should just wait, and then get that on 360. Does anyone here know/think they know...

    Character classes you hate

    I really dislike playing mage classes. I don't dislike their existence, I just find I get bored playing them. I've tried, and I know in general they tend to be more powerful, but I just get bored so quickly. As for ones I like, I like Warrior classes the most, and sneaky types after that.

    Old but gold - what are you playing?

    MGS3! Again. Love that game. Trying to get the 64 Kerotans now.

    What is your state's/country's embarrassing stereotype?

    That bad? Really really not. There's some areas that aren't as nice, that's for sure, but I wouldn't say it's the worst. It's a very normal city. Last year.... yeah, it was bad, an average of almost a murder a week. Part of the problems we have is that it kind of ends up being party central for...
