    How can you NOT have played that?!

    I've never read a doctor Seuss book myself. Never read a Harry Potter book despite being the target market when the first one was released. I have no interest in Ocarina of Time. I'm not particularly interested in any Nintendo franchise and the only Mario game I own is Mario Kart on the DS...

    Where'd you get your username(s)?

    True, throwing my massive surname on the end of it only adds to the hilarity. Or any of my non Irish friends, well they just laugh at it and give me my student card back. They know not to try.

    Where'd you get your username(s)?

    Mine is rather complicated, it's the last syllable of my name in Irish spelled phonetically and then doubled up because I felt Veen didn't stand up well enough by itself. Veenveen just had more of a ring to it I guess. My name in Irish is Caoimhín. I get people who can't read Irish to try...

    Your Favourite British Thing(s).

    Stephen Fry. If I wasn't extremely pedantic I'd say Father Ted and the IT Crowd, but seeing as they were written and probably directed by an Irish guy I can only really say I'm thankful that the British funded it :P

    How old is your all-time favorite game?

    Final Fantasy 8 or Person 4 for me so that's 12 years for ff or 18 nearly 2 years for persona 4.

    Remake an old game with this gen's technology. What do you go for?

    I'd say I'm probably alone in this but I think Final Fantasy 8 would do well with a remake. I still prefer this game story wise to 95% of games I've played since. I do agree with Deus Ex and System Shock too. Good stuff there.

    Guilty Pleasures...Embarrass Yourself Here

    Hmmmm... Movies: I'm not entirely sure what films I'm ashamed of, I dont really watch that many. Music: Evanescence and The Black Mages. Games: I'm a big fan of eroge games for the not so obvious reason that I enjoy the story. Misc: I have this weird thing that I can't read books if...

    Poll: Do you drink Alcohol?

    Being Irish, I get a hell of a lot of pressure to drink. While I've no interest in getting drunk myself I don't really mind who is drunk around me. I'm nearly 23 now and think I've done a good job of saying no because I'm just not interested. I personally think I'm enjoyable and fun enough not...

    Poll: Best Accent Worldwide?

    What about everybody's favourite impossible to emulate Irish accent? Or hell I'd go for some South African accent with my tea too.

    Game Franchises You've Lost Interest In

    If Versus XIII isn't a return to form after vanilla XIII then I think I'll have lost faith in Final Fantasy. XII was a step forward in terms of everything bar story for me, XIII has regressed it back beyond last gen games gameplay wise. I loved VI, enjoyed VII, VIII was my favourite, and IX was...

    Good games to get my sister into FPS games?

    If you can find it, the original unreal tournament was the one that got my sister into FPS games. Portal almost worked on my ex-gf too. So that would be a fun choice.

    Feeling low?

    I think we all have times that we are down. Happiness and sadness comes and goes in waves. Just how life seems to work for me anyway. I mean I've had a couple of fairly bad years by any stretch of the imagination. But if you let it get you down, it will. Escapism is one way of getting past being...

    Sports games... the bane of my existence.

    I think most people have a genre they really really hate. A friend of mine absolutely hates western RPGs(Fallout 3 not included) for the fact that 90% of them are based in a land that has elves and dwarves. Basically because they bring nothing new to the table. I am personally football mad...
