Hello!
I'm a 32 year old New York City teacher currently living in New Jersey and a gamer for 27 years. I started my gaming life with an Atari 2600 I got for Xmas when I was 5.
From that fateful day when I first turned on that Atari and shot my first Asteroid, I've played through the NES (complete with ROB the robot), Snes, Gameboy, PS1, PS2, Nintendo DS, PSP, Xbox 360.
I never played any pen & paper RPG's. I was always curious about them when I was younger, and would flip through D&D books at my local comic book store, I never knew anyone who played.
I'm currently playing on the Xbox 360:
Dragon Age: Origins
Modern Warfare 2
Borderlands
I'm also currently replaying some old favorites through the PSP on my commute through the city, such as the PS1 Command & Conquer and Red Alert releases and Blood Omen: Legacy of Kain.
I want to join TOG after searching for a place where I could talk about games without all the drama and trash talking of immature gamers who are all about "pwnage" and arguing who's better at what game. Just looking for a place to talk about old and new games with mature and, well, older gamers I guess
Aside from teaching, I'm also a street artist, photographer, and beer label collector.
Anyways, thanks and hope to join everyone soon!
