What good books (besides the Halo novels) have you been reading lately that you would recommend?
I'm not much of a reader, but the only two series I've read recently are Halo novels ;) an The Hunger Games Trilogy. If for some reason you haven't read those yet, do so. AMAZING books.
When you aren't playing Halo or dreaming about what we're concocting, what do you do for fun?
School, games, work, tv, games. That is a daily activity routine for me. I love it =)
What was your 2011 game of the year?
Probably Gears 3. 2011 was kinda an off year for games IMO. Really excited for what this year brings!
What's your most memorable story moment from any game you've played, ever, and why?
I have two memorable gaming story moments.
1) The introduction of the flood in CE. Freaked me the f' out!
It was done so amazingly creepy, it kept me from Halo for a while (I was like 11...)
2) Fighting the Berserker on the train in the final Act. My friend and I literally were stuck on it for probably around an hour because we didn't realize we had to detach the train. We thought we had to kill it. So for that hour, all we heard was Dom saying "Are you kidding me?!?!? Berserker!!!!!". It was terribly amazing.
Has playing a game narrative (story, characters, etc.) ever caused you to cry?
Yes and no. Really the only time I came unbelievably close was when Dom died in Gears 3. I had tears in my eyes, but they didn't come out. However, I was slightly spoiled on that moment about a week before. So I feel if I went into it not knowing anything, tears would have fell.
Why you gotta be like that?
Umad, bro?
Choose one. Explain your choice.
I choose the red one if, and only if, it is watermelon flavored. If it is any other flavor, then I choose the blue.
(Yes, I do know that that is irrelevant to what the picture actually is.)
Kirk or Picard? And why?
I'll be very honest and say I have no idea who these guys are. Seeing as I honestly have no idea what this question is about, I choose Picard. I choose him because who the f' else has the name Picard?
(After reading other posts, I realize it's Star Trek. Never watched it, so that validates my answer.)
Reach deep now. Why do you play games?
Lets be very honest, shall we. I am not the most popular guy around. I am a people person, however, I am somewhat a loner. Very few friends to speak of. So, all of my friends are online. That's what keeps me coming back. I honestly don't know if I'd still be gaming if it wasn't for the friends I've made online.
One other reason, my life is a little...irregular. Reasons I don't really want to go into on the interwebs. So games are sort of my escape from all of that. It allows me to just leave all that behind.
Favorite Pen & Paper RPG, and why?
I do believe this is a little too old-school for my liking (I'm 19?). Either it is a super old thing, or I've just never heard of it. Regardless, I have no idea seeing as I don't know any games that fit in the category.
What was your first game system, and what was your favorite game on that system?
The original Xbox was my 1st ever system. My favorite game for it was Halo 2. Sooooooo many memories were left on that game. However, if you guys want us to stray from Halo titles, then my answer is Star Wars Battlefront 2. AMAZING game. So addicting.
If we built the stadium, would you enter a real world Grifball tournament?
Seeing as I have been an avid grifballer for around 2 and a half years, and have been a member of GrifballHub's Good Games League (and the AGLA) for just as long, my answer is YES! Talk to the fine people at the Hub and make this happen please!
In your opinion, what's the best video game system of all time?
Xbox 360. I am an Xbox fanboy. Nothing else will do for me.
Who is your best and worst villain?
I'm not too big on the whole super hero/villain scene. So with my lack of knowledge, my best villain is probably the Joker (predictable much?) and my worst villain is The Penguin. Just doesn't make much sense to me...a penguin...
Can you sing the theme to Sea Hunt without cheating on the Intertubes? (upload video proof - link it here)
No.
What was your favorite non-Halo Bungie game, and why?
One game that always finds a way back to me is Phantasy Star Universe. The demo was so addicting (not the pronz), and the real game is that much more fun. However, I'd have to give my actual favorite game (more like series) to Gears. aside from Gears 2, some of the most fun games I've played. The storyline never disappointed, which in my opinion, games are lacking these days.
