    Speaking of killing evey single living thing... I had to kill every single person (who didn't need resucing) in the original Syndicate. I wiped out anyone - guard, insurgent, civilian, it didn't matter. And yet my population were still kept very happy due to low taxes. Ahh it was such fun just letting the money pile in and then bringing in my guys, armed with maximum in everything and being completely unstoppable, and showing the city proper justice :D

    i picked up the playstation version for €5 a few months back. it runs great in epsxe even at stupidly high resolutions and causes none of the headaches the pc version induces running on modern machines.

    Well, I used to be obsessed with Resident Evil on the PS1,2 and DC. I bought all the games, downloaded the soundtracks, collected magazines with anything about RE in them, got all those figurines and comics and novels.

    Other than that, I think the occassional "lol" or "affirmative" passed my lips. Also the Counter-Strike syndrome of looking for places to snipe from as you walked down a street.

    hm...where to begin..

    1: My ringtone is Chrono Trigger - Frogs theme.
    2: My playlist consists of nothing, but J-Rock, and game music covers(mainly electric guitar). With some 80's music thrown in.
    3: I bunny-hopped around a garda station after being at the cinema..
    4: 4 of my T-shirts have leetspk on them (well...maybe 5 or 6)
    5: I once picked a night of video gaming over going out for the night.

    The list could go on...

    Heh,

    I can hum most of the Transport Tycoon tunes...

    I still play Transport Tycoon (6/7years later) for hours on end (6hr+ sessions)

    Listen to the BF Vietnam Soundtrack in my car...

    Original C&C Music on my Phone as ring tone and mp3s

    Listen to Zelda Theme tune (Orchestra) To relax...

    I've said LoL in public...I say I pwn my workmates...
    I add '0r after their names... I call them noobs...

    There is so much more... But I think I've said enough for now

    :D:D:D:D

    A girl in college was not doing too well in exams, and today she came in early, not to study, but to check what happened at E3 last night. That's nerdy!

    Hmmm this doesn't seem to be a 'How nerdy are you?' type thread, but a 'Lets see how nerdy rainbow kirby is' thread... C'mon can anyone beat her? Lads are supposed to be more into their games than girls. Is the most gamest person in Ireland a girl? Men of Ireland, your sex needs you!
