1.  11 years, since i was 5

2.  PSX, PS2, Sega, N64

3.  PSX or Sega

4.  Tony Hawk 1,  Dynasty Warriors 3, NHL 2002, and Final Fantasy 7

5.  I always enjoyed doing things in games that I could not do in real life.  Basically, gaming is a way of showing my childhood in that I am pretending.  Im pretending im in a deathmatch, im pretending im Tony Hawk, it is all about having fun.

6.  None of the gaming companies get along anymore.  Everyone should just be figuring out how to make the better games rather than whose prices are lower.  It is all about making a game with the next big thing, a new feature or design that people will like.

7.  In order I would have to say,  RPGs, Sports, FPS, (online gaming), Adventure

8.  I\'d say around 20-25 (hardcore gamers)

9.  I enjoy this one and gamefaqs.  Nintendo Nation\'s was the ultimate though.

10.  For the gaming experience.  I just simply love video games and I am very open minded to games.

Quest for Glory

I really don\'t know.. I just grew up with it and it\'s still one of my favorite hobbies. Beats vegging out to a non-interactive movie.

1. How many years have you been a gamer?

Lets see I started playing Arcade games when I was 10 so 23 years


2. What systems do you currently own?

PS2, and a Sega CD

The Sega CD is pretty much valuless to sell, my PSX and games I sold to buy me and my step son PS2\'s and I plan on upgrading my PC soon
I might get an Xbox too, but that depends on alot of things. Money is tight these days



3. What system is your all time favorite?

PS2, and getting better each year




4. What game has sucked away the most of your free time?

GT3




5. Why do you think you became a gamer?

Because TV sucks a solid portion of the time and interactive entertainment is obvioulsy more involving.

Basically it helps me pass away the times when I\'m not busy doing a mulititude of other thinns... chores, hobbies, work





6. What do you think is the biggest problem with gaming?

To much wishy washy Japanese melodramatic RPG crap. Not all of its bad, but too much of it is too much

But more then that I cannot stand games that are not complex, challenging engaging. To many basic game formulas, not enough hardcore action strategy games with mutiple scenarios and option

In other words way to many games are shallow. I like very deep games that take strong efforts and understandings to master the best.

Not all games need to be this way, but there are not nearly enough of them




7. What is your favorite gaming genre?

Action RPG, but its a stale genre that only a few games seem to be able to carry it succesfully so far..... see #6





8. how many gamers do you know in person?

not many, I\'m 33 and most of my best friends think gaming is lame, but a few of us enjoy. Probably 10 or so semi serious gamers




9. What is the best gaming forum on the \'net?

PSX2central is home, but since IGN went pay only its not so bad over there anymore.




10. Why do you own your system(s)?

Cause it would suck to rent a system

1. 12 years, since I was 5

2. NES, SNES, Gameboy, Gameboy Color, Virtual Boy, Sega Genesis, 32x, Playstation, N64, Gamecube, and various PCs.

3. SNES, followed closely by NES

4. Tecmo Super Bowl for Genesis

5. I was given an NES for my fifth birthday.  I liked it, and I\'ve been playing games ever since

6. There are too many systems coming and going.  It\'s too hard to tell what to get and what not to.  Also, I miss some old game formats, such as side scrollers.  I think game design overall was better in the NES days.

7. Adventure, RPG, Strategy.  At times, first person shooters too.  If it counts as a category, my favorite games are PC games you can play online.

8. A lot, let\'s just leave it at that

9. It was the N64cc Forums, but now that they don\'t exist, it\'s these ones.  Of course, I don\'t come here for the gaming parts...

10. I\'m a Nintendo Fanboy, what can I say?  I own most of the systems they\'ve made.  I even have 2 Virtual Boys.  I also got a lot of use out of my Genesis.  There were some great games for it.  I bought my PSX exclusively for Final Fantasy Games.

Super Mario Kart

5. Why do you think you became a gamer?
Too lazy to get out of the house

Originality is starting to die out.  Each game is starting to look like another game played somewhere else.

Beats the crap outta me.

9. What is the best gaming forum on the \'net?

No specific reason.  I started out playing the atari system and found it fun.  Parents bought famicon, and I played it a lot, and then I asked for Super Famicon for a Christmas present, and played it a lot.  Reasons?  I dunno, just wanted something to play with, I guess.
