You know what, I never introduced myself, that's sad :( Well here it is. Hi, my name is Adrian. I was born in 1986 in a little hospital somewhere in Cuba. I don't remember which one :? I came to the US in 99, right before the "end of the world" :P I been living in California for 7 years. My "gaming career" started when I was five. Of course I never was able to play all those games people played when they were children, and I didn't even own any type of console. It's kinda hard to find a console/game in Cuba :x I played at my mother's work in her PC. That computer had more games than anything related with accounting. The first game I played was "principe de persia" (Prince of Persia) as we called it. It was pretty easy to beat, but I really loved the challenges it had, or still has. Unfortunately I was never able to play that game again, you'll find out why. ========================================= Right around age 7-8 I played Wolfestein (is that how you write it?) My mom was better than me at it, but like always I was the first one to beat it. Infact, I was always the first one in my neighborhood when it came to beating games. Well, I then played some other weird games that I don't remember. Especially a f1 racing one that I really loved. What happened to those computers? Well they got stolen. So ends my gaming career in Cuba, sad. ======================================== When I came here, took me 2 years before I could get my "gaming career back on track. I got together with a few friends. We now rent games and play as a group. Since I started playing when I was five on a PC, I will always be a PC person. Sure I like consoles, but not as much as PCs As of today, I own about 70 games. ======================================== Before I make this longer that it already is, I found gamespot around 02, register in 03, and I been here ever since. I am one of the Welcome Newbie’s board mods. Been one for about 1 year now. You'll see me there a lot ~_~ You can also drop me a pm anytime. That concludes my long intro :P
