This gen Xer started playing games over 20 years ago on the Atari 2600. In the mid eighties you could find this teenager at the local arcade playing games, listening to heavy metal and chasing girls. I did have a 2 year hiatus from gaming between the fall of Sega Genesis and 1994, but Doom 2 changed all that. Of course now I'm thirtysomething and have settled down but my love for gaming continues.
