A little bit about me...

I can't expect you to read my reviews without knowing anything about me, right?  Well, at the time of writing this, I'm 28, and I've been playing video games of some sort since I was 4 or 5.  It all started with the good old Super Nintento Entertainment System, and Super Mario Brothers.  I loved that game, and I still enjoy it.  I will always remember my dad trying to shoot the dog in Duck Hunt.  I moved onto computer gaming with a little title called Command And Conquer: Red Alert.  And it was from that I got hooked.  I still have my original disks for that one.  I also played Tiberian Sun to death, as well as Black and White, American McGee's Alice, and Red Alert 2.  Then I discovered Blizzard games.  I started with Starcraft and its expansion, moved onto Warcraft III and its expansion, and finally to Diablo II and its expansion.  World of Warcraft is something I've played on and off since launch, and I find myself coming back to play the new content. 

Indie games and ones from smaller developers are something new to me, but no less fascinating.  Audiosurf has taken a lot of my time, and both of the Torchlight games.  Bastion is amazing, and I'm sure I will find many more games.  My Steam library had quite a bit that is either untouched, or barely touched, and hopefully this will give me the motivation to work on this.
