    Do You Like/Love To Read?

    I usually read fantasy and science fiction and lately I've been into Manga, and Korean Manwhas. They're very well illustrated and take no time to load in the background while I work so I read a chapter here and there.

    Favorite video game music?

    Hmm. I remember just idling here in Chrono Trigger to listen to the music while I did homework. Hmm.. AndI agree with touhou, my favorite being Sakuya's stage, generall. Luna Dial, I think it was. Also, U.N Owen Was Her for Flandre was an awesome song.

    Destiny

    It's so fun to just replay the raids with different people to see if they sink or swim. After doing so many runs it becomes nature what to do when to do it, but watching pure newbies is entertaining. And I like to help.

    Zelda, the 2015 VERSION!

    The game will be so fun to run around it. They said it felt kind-of-empty but they're aiming to fix that with higher population spawns. and the fact the terrain in parts is usable (like the fruit tree's fruits to heal you) or various other things we saw in the video. Money secured indeed, if I...

    Favorite game music

    Here's some more of my Acapella Guy videos, you rock Smooth. Doing all my old childhood memories! And well, to boot. I still hum this theme in high-tense situations. And...Dire Dire Docks, Mario 64! And this. Aww yeah, Balamb Garden.

    Who knows how to play Chess?

    Doesn't matter if you're the best; Chess teaches you how to out think people. It's a game of reading into things, not a thousand steps down the line or anything, but the way they look, their breathing as they choose their piece, the amount of conviction they put in. It all just keeps you coming...

    Games to look out for?

    No release dates on the actual game, however there is talk about their beta stage and when they'll come active. Here's another view from FFXV, an actual "Gameplay" trailer, so to speak. I heard Grey and Natsu's voice actor from Fairy Tail in the opening too, as well as Hughes from FMA. So...

    Have Games taught you anything?

    It's taught me very creative ways to solve otherwise normal or everyday issues that would require thinking a great deal of time. It's the puzzle solving aspect; after awhile your brain starts to just understand, "This is how that enemy is coded, this is how this area looks, this is how to jump...

    Favorite game music

    Here's a couple more: Aww Yeah, Castlevania. The Entire Baten Kaitos OST. The game was a masterpiece aside from the horrid voice acting. Motoi Sakuraba is a genius composer, same with Nobuo Uematsu and Koji Kondo, and Yoko Kanno. There are plenty of others but they come to mind first. And...

    Who knows how to play Chess?

    I'm like Macho; I'm much better in person than online. I like the feel of the pieces, how the opponent reacts or the look in his eye as your scanning the board. It's just about as indepth as reading your opponent can get; and still paying ample attention to the board. Also, don't try to take out...

    Games to look out for?

    I loved 13 as much as people cut it down for the exact reasons you listed it. After all those open ended control turn based games, the active systems came out from 12 onwards, but 13 decided to throw the turn based back in there slightly with paradigm shifting. The cinematics made it feel like a...

    If all electronic games were unusuable tomorrow, what games will you play?

    Just play it up on a table, if you can. Any elevated spot. I loved when my folks taught me Monopoly; it's sure to be fun for the kids.

    Have Games taught you anything?

    Haha, this is hilarious. Ragequitting like a boss, and this is your face:

    Have Games taught you anything?

    You mentioning the quizzes and puzzles makes me remember all those games too. They really teach logic and how to apply it in real world situations because of "how can I do this without hurting myself" or "how can I arrange this to look nice" can be directly influenced by your personal growth. If...

    Do you like single player or multi player content better?

    Most of the time I would answer with, "I like Multiplayer content better" because I've played MMOs, Online Games, and most of my friends are online. People say these people are fake; turn-offable friends. But I'd never just leave them and ragequit, and these games are fun because of these people...

    Realm of the Mad God?

    I like the sheer number OF classes, there's just so many achievements and things to do, that the content in the actual game maps are huge and the extra portals that enemies drop for extra explorables - there's just so much content. It might be the same content, regurgitated again and again but...

    Whats your favorite FPS ever?

    Well, old favorite has to be Perfect Dark. I loved the fly-by-wire rockets, and it felt like a fresher take on Golden-Eye 64's online play (bit more polished, anyways) so I just loved to hide and guide those missiles into people. So much rage. Newer favorite has to be DESTINY, as I've maxed...

    Final Fantasy 7, The good old days

    It wasn't my first, nor my last. I just loved everything about it. From the grunge story, to using the planets life as energy/electric and killing our world, the the premises and villains (wanting to use the Earth as a ship to sail through the cosmos? pretty evil..) just had a nice dark gothic...

    Realm of the Mad God?

    It's very fun. It's like a quick pickup on the go with plenty of grindable pathways to have fun. also really fun to be on a steam group with people or be in a VOIP like Ventrilo or Skype and have a blast.
