<div class="IPBDescription">Im a "gameaholic"</div> This is for GA, gamers anomynous (sp?)

Lets go around the room and introduce ourselves, and tell us a little about yourself.

I'll go first:

Hello, My name is Burr, and Im addicted to games, I have been for about 10 years now, possibly longer.
I enjoy games becasue they take me away from this thing called life. I dont think I will ever stop playing, I will be buried with all my games so I can play them in the hereafter. I enjoy Skiing, Driving, Nitro powered R/C cars, and fire.
I have a girlfriend who stands by my addiction for over 2 years now, I think its starting to Rub off on her (she plays SSX Tricky ALOT now)
Thats my story.

    I started out with arcade games, have always liked console games (woot! sega 16) and have a fair share of DDR experience under my belt. I discovered NS @ school when the instructional aid (<b>hard</b>core gamer, like none other) and I've been playing it ever since

    While I'm not much of a gamer, I'm a GameMessageboard-aholic. I created an account here on November 5th, and I've been here basically every day since then. <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Hi, my name is BioHaz, and Im a technoholic with a psychological need to be entertained. Ive been a technoholic ever since I came into contact with a computer when I was 4, and I am now 20. That coupled with my need to be entertained; video games and computers are my biggest addictions, although I am also quite fond of other forms of technogadgetry. The smaller the gadget, the more interesting it is, like wristwatches and PDAs. I have quite a collection of classic Nintendo Game and Watches, handheld and wrist versions.

    If it has at least one switch, button, knob, and some kind of visual feedback, I must play with it.

    A couple nights ago, I bought an black import GBA SP and Link to the Past so I may satiate my gaming needs at work because my PDA was not sufficient anymore.

    Yeah, Ive had this idea brewing in my head for awhile. Maybe bar on top, and a network of computers in maybe the basement, with a big screen TV with a ps2, Xbox, and gamecube. CHarge people to play, and on sundays close the bar and make it exclusive game time.

    So much money, I need to win the lottery...

    Hello, I'm Scinet.

    I've been addicted to computers since 1984 when I got my first one, a Commodore 64. I love team-based games and strategy, so when Flayra introduced his NS, I knew I had to try a fix of that, and before I knew it, I was hopelessly addicted.

    When I'm not playing games, I'm probably planning the next <a href='http://radiumclub.cjb.net' target='_blank'>Radium</a> event. That way there's atleast one evening now and then when I can go to a bar and hear the music I like, since I'm the one choosing the songs <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

    I've been a game-aholic ever since I beat The Legend of Zelda at 4. Sometimes I lose all grip on reality and I'm zoned out and I like think life's a game, then when I think about it I snap out of it.
