TOG - The Older Gamers

frostee.uk · 3rd July 2006, 12:21 AM

Hello!
I'm 33 years OLD and have been a games addict since the age of 8, I live in London England and my career for now seems to be heading in the direction of games development having worked on 2 published games titles, however I have not managed to land a permanent job doing what I love, instead I work as part of an outsourcing team, but I'm more like a freelancer for now as they dont always have work for me.

I guess I first got into multiplayer gaming when Quake2 came out, I was already very much into Quake2 single player and had completed the story more than once (not to mention MANY singleplayer maps created by the comunity that I played and loved also) I instantly became addicted after a friend of mine urged me to try out a Quake2 deathmatch online... "are these real people I'm shooting at?"

Since then I have spent countless hours online playing games like quake 2, quake 3, soldier of fortune 2, counterstrike (and source), everquest, eve online, anarchy online, swg, world of warcraft.

At the moment I'm taking a break from WoW so I'm getting to play other games alot more, currently I'm hooked on CS:source, Prey multiplayer (demo version for now) and still have my EVE online account going that I log into sometimes to have some fun. Offline I'm playing through Freelancer (which im loving), Darkstar One demo (which is also really cool), half life 2 (never got around to finishing it the first time, and im enjoying it ALOT more this time around anyway) already got HL2 episode 1 ready to go once I finish the first one.

I have read both the AUP and the TOG FAQ and do not disaprove of anything there. Thanks for reading.
