I haven't really been hardcore on anything since I was a kid & then it was Mario/Nintendo in general & Street Fighter once I had my first taste of Street Fighter II. I used to write original plays based in the Super Mario Bros. 1-3 universe in 2nd & 3rd grade...does that count? I was also the first girl at my grade school to wear the "ox horn" hairstyle made so popular by the First Lady of fighting herself, Chun-Li. Oh, and I guess I kinda had a wide-on for Sailor Moon from the age of 8-16; owned the dolls, some manga (was hard to come by), VHS/DVD's, the moon wand & scepter, Chibi Usa's Luna ball-assorted stuff. I used to set my old VCR to record the show while I was at school & God forbid it was on the fritz & didn't kick on in time...

Ooh, ooh, I almost forgot-Hamtaro! I still gotz all muh plushie, VHS & DVD's, the little
plastic playsets-snap, I loved that show! It came out in America around the time I got my first hamster, the bitin'-est little Siberian dwarf ever-Nibbler. I loved that little gal...*sigh*

 Now, off to youtube! I've got a hankering for the ending theme song! Heke! *Hamtaro sound effect*
Hamtaro is excellent. How could I forget that lil guy lol!!!

If I may quote a pair of wise, time traveling sages, he is indeed "most excellent". *sigh* Now I'm all moon faced & doe eyed over here, filled with nostalgia & reminiscing about my teenage years. Not to start sounding all cliché, but it really does fly by. I'm 28 now & sometimes it seems like 2003 was just last year, or sometimes like it should still BE that year; other times, it feels like ages ago & part of me has trouble believing I was ever that young & experienced what I did back then. But enough whimsy from this haggard old broad, you kids get back to your video game discussion. I'ma go knit a new depression shawl while I rock slowly on my front porch (I really do know how to knit...).

I know the feels (being 28 myself), with creaking bones, sore joints, gray hairs, the works! Last I remember I was running out until 4 in the morning, slamming Mountain Dews like nobody's business and playing MGS2 all the time. When did I suddenly turn into Old Snake?  :'(

If Laina can knit an OctoCamo equipped Cyborg Ninja Suit, I'd order 20.

If I could do that, I'd invite you to come start Outer Heaven with me.

Yeah, that's pretty much it, only throw in a Thunderdome or two & machineguns are mandatory for all upstanding citizens. Now taking applications for residency! Get in on the ground floor!

Once upon a time, Metal Gear. But post-Peace Walker, we had a falling out and a rather ugly divorce over some of Hideo Kojima's more... questionable content inclusions. It remains to be seen whether Ground Zeroes will fix any of this and mend a relationship I really would love to have back.

He's at least promising that the game will cover "very mature themes", so thanks for the heads up, man.

Currently? Skyrim, Castlevania, Devil May Cry (and DmC has only made me that much more of a nutter for the series).
How not to be a dark lord: the answer to that is a terribly interesting answer that involves an almost Jedi-like adherence to keeping oneself under control and finding ways to be true to yourself in a way that doesn't encourage the worst parts of you to become dangerously exaggerated and instead feeds your better nature. Also, protip: don't fuck with Alchemy or strike up any deals with ancient Japanese Shinigami gods no matter how tempting the deal or how suavely dressed the Shinigami is.
