Following suit!
« on: April 23, 2008, 06:36:43 AM »
I saw what Mesh did, and I think that it's pretty damn cool to do that for everyone new and existing.  So I'm the first copycat on the block.

I can't even remember when I came here, but I know it was a long time ago.  I was a simple Google-searching user looking for DC games, found this place, talked up a storm (because everyone here was really cool and easy to talk to) and decided to stick around and do what I could.

I got made a Mod, did my thing, tried to keep the place clean and tidy, and got handed the keys to the kingdom.  I've had to swing the hammer of doom before, and I absolutely hate doing it.  I get no pleasure out of smacking people out of our park, and I've only had to do it on two closely-related occasions.  I'm a very tolerant guy, and I won't even lock a thread anymore unless it gets REALLY, REALLY  out of hand.  I love this place - heart and soul - and just want to see it run as smoothly and irreverently as ever.

I stepped down from the ISO/emu side of things as of about a year/year and a half ago.  Now I mainly stick to the forums, just hanging out and talking up a storm or two.  I'm like the Buddha of this site, a wise mountain from which you could ask any question and get the answer you needed, but maybe not the answer you expected.  And if I can't answer a question, I'll definitely get you in touch with someone who can, this much I can promise you.

I've been playing games since my hands could hold things.  My first console was an Atari 2600.  River Raid FTW (probably where I got my love of shmups from).

I've kept the collection pretty lean - I own two NES consoles (one original spring-loader, one top-loader, both working), an SNES, two N64s, a PSX, three PS2s (two dead bricks and one invincible slimline), a modded XBOX (in which I carry every arcade fighting game known to man, or at least the ones that the XB will support), an XBOX 360 (My gamertag is Everyday Legend), a Wii and my favorite console of all time, hands down, no contest - my Dreamcast (may it live forever).

I'm 25, in college and shooting for a Masters degree in Interactive Arts and Sciences - Production.  I'd like to do design, but mathematics isn't my strong suit, I'm more of a Language Arts kind of guy.  So, I'd be better off with high-level team management and supervision.  Plus, I think it'd be a thrill to be the dude who signs off on the payroll for 300 people crunching code to make something of brilliance.

I dig all kinds of games, except genres that get stagnant and overcrowded (such as sports and most FPS game these days).  But I'll try to play anything, and I mean that wholeheartedly.

My top five games of all time aren't in any order, but they all stand as my titles that I'll play for the rest of my life:
Mega Man 2 (NES)
Chrono Trigger (SNES)
Okami (PS2)
SoulCalibur (DC)
Zelda: Link To The Past (SNES)

This is who I am.  This is what I do.  Here is where I call home.  Welcome to SegaHub.  Stay forever.  :D

My ancientness makes you guys seem young.. LOL It's not easy being 33 and enjoying gaming..(old man moment) "In my day people over the age of 20 had nothing to do with Video Games, Unless of course they wanted the social pariah tag attached to them. I really can't share my passion for gaming with women my age. Which is not so much of a problem since I date younger women..LOL. Still If a woman of 33 finds out I play games and have several game systems hooked up to a dedicated monitor.......well....I probably won't see her again." what can I say I am and I always was ahead of my time. :D
