Gamer Survey
18 years ago
What says boredom like a random survey you found on someone's profile?
1) What was your FIRST video game console?:
The Atari 2600. My mother was playing it while I was in the womb!
2) Name a few games you played on said console:
Frogger, River Raid, Grand Prix, and... that one with the Kangaroo... was that just called Kangaroo?
3) Excluding handhelds, how many VG consoles do you own presently:
Hmm... well, with me, just the PS2, but I leech off of a roommate with an xBox, a 360, and a GameCube.
4) Were you a Street Fighter nut? Any character in particular?:
I played it a lot as a kid, but recent retries have proven how much I suck at it... I remember liking all the characters, but the whole Ryu/Ken thing was kind of a standard.
5) If you think Capcom is a FUCKING awesome company with kickass character designs, I would like to hear a "hell yes" followed by a Capcom character you love.
Ah, they're not my favorite, but they're still in positive standing with me.
6) Here's the scenario.. You had some friends over and you all ate FRIED CHICKEN! After the meal you all decide to play some video games. As your friend reaches for a controller you notice his/her hands are very "greasy." Are you the type that would insist they wash their hands before pawing the controller, or is it no big deal?:
Well, assuming it's my controller... yeah, wash them, that's rude.
7) What's your favorite RPG/Action RPG?:
Disgaea/Disgaea 2 FTW!
8) Do you prefer 2D games or 3D games?
I like a good mix. I do kinda cringe at some of the art direction of 3D games these days... Yes, it has a trillion polygons, but it still looks like crap... go play Odin Sphere.
9) Are you an SNK fan?
Nope! I'm not a fighter, I'm a lover!
9) Are you good at DDR?:
I haven't played in a while, but I used to be able to pass most seven-foot songs and some eight-foot... So I guess I'm good... not great, but good.
10) Who wants to kick that dog's ass from Duck Hunt?:
Hey now, someone's gotta pick those things up...
11) Have you skipped out on important events in life because of video games?
Probably, but I didn't notice... I was playing video games.
12) Do you listen to video game music?
Outside of the game? Occasionally... if it's like Chrono Cross quality or something. I've given massages to the original Civ 4 theme. Relaxing!
13) Have you ever cosplayed a VG character..?
Well, if they ever make a video game about me... I suppose I have every day.
14) Have you ever been in an arcade playing a fighting game, KICKING ASS, and then some 6 year old asian kid comes in and OWNS YOU??:
I typically stay away from the quarter-eaters. Virtua Fighter is cheaper at home.
15) Name three games you would love to see remakes of if it was done properly:
I'd love to see another Earthbound... but no one wants to legally translate them. X-Com would be great... people keep trying and screwing that up. And then I suppose there's good ol' FFVII... but I somehow can't see that going well.
16) Mario or Sonic?
Mario is typically a bit more solid... There have been a LOT of bad Sonic games.
17) When a movie shows up in the theaters, let's use SpiderMan as an example, are you likely to buy the GAME version?
Let's see... have I won the lottery and lost all concept of a wise purchase yet? No? Then no.
18) What is your LEAST favorite genre of video games? (ex. fighting, sports, shooters, etc.):
"Epic" Action RPGs, such as Elder Scrolls. I guess I like to keep my stats games and my action games seperate... Please don't hurt me for saying that Oblivionites...
19) Is there a game out there that you feel was unique and didn't get enough love:
Once again, Disgaea and Disgaea 2... Of course, I kind of wish the whole Harvest Moon line got a bit more attention, if only so they could fund them and refine them a bit more.
20) Have you ever verbally abused a game because you couldn't beat one of the levels and/or bosses?
Oh, who hasn't, honestly?
21) Do you own any VG apparel?
I didn't think about it until just now but... no.
22) What are your thoughts on the live-action Super Mario Bros movie?
The best most terrible movie I ever not wanted to see again.
23) On that note, what did you think about the live-action Street Fighter movie?
I... didn't.
24) Who hottest out of these three KOF chicks IYHO?
I don't really know any of them, so... the one with the hair...
25) Do you say "old-school" a lot when you're having a VG conversation with others?
Fortunately, no. I'm sorry, but Gears of War is just a pinch better than Pitfall...
26) Have you ever lent someone a game and they returned it to you damaged?
No, I don't really have enough stuff to lend most of the time.
27) Do you own any imported games?
A few German and Russian PC games, I think... somewhere in that closet.
28) Are you ready for this meme to be over, or could you keep going:
Ah, I suppose I have stuff to do.
29) In this scenario, let's pretend you're going to get a video game tattoo! What would you get and where?
Hard one... Perhaps a Prinney on the leg...
30) Have you ever cried after you beat a game? If so why?
I can't remember doing so, but I'm sure I've gotten close... I know I sobbed a little at the end of Cowboy Beebop, but... that's not a game.

Disgaea 2 was like a major change from 1 for me. And how item world worked was even better hehe.
Prinny dood! So have you seen Zetta yet, hehe?
I'm currently just trying to kick Zetta's ... would he have an ass? Well still I LOVE the Charater info help and his skill info help they are just great... Though I want to see all 3 of his skills.
I want to get the other Wild arms games , last one I played was Wild ARMS 3 hehe.
