  1. Final Fantasy 9 is also one of my favorites. The comedy, the cities, and the card game are just a few of my favorite things about the game. For a long time I used to think I'd like to live in a city like Treno but lately I've been into Steampunk and airships so I'm becoming more attached to Lindblum.

  2. I find for me just playing any video game makes me feel happier especially when series favorites release like Dragon Age or Pokemon. I'm not very talkative or social at home but I like to think I'm the most approachable and happiest when I'm playing video games.

  3. I was born in 83 and I feel humbled to have seen how video games have changed from the NES days to what we have now. When Nintendo and Sega were competing it would be frustrating because the same video game title would not look the same. Aladdin is a popular example of how on the SNES and Sega Genesis they looked drastically different. It always blows my mind when someone will complain about the graphics of a current video game and to me it's like "you think that's bad, look at what I grew up with".

    I even grew up playing some of the obscure Apple II games like Lemonade Stand, Odell Lake, Word Muncher, Mario Teaches Typing, and of course the popular Oregon Trail.

    Sometimes Nintendo magazine would publish walkthroughs of games and would have the entire levels or maps layed out screen-by-screen or there was a hotline to call that charged money to use.

  4. When I completed the game Journey, I didn't plan to feel as emotional as I did. At first I didn't realize how the game worked and then when I ran into someone I started following them and soon I figured out we had to work together. I learned to use the communication signal as a way to signal someone to head toward me or vise versa. There was even a moment where you slide across the sand and whoever I was playing with started zig-zagging so I joined in until we were making figure 8's in the sand and it was a very beautiful moment. Then the game ended and for a couple hours afterwards I was still marveling at how powerful this game felt while playing it and how I never was so touched by a game before.
