30 days video game meme

General
Each day I'm gonna update my journal to answer one of these questions.
Day 1 - Your very first video game.
Technically, that would be Pac-Man when I was 3. But I actually consider Pokemon Red my first, since it was the first one that was mine (Birthday present, age 9) and that I played on a regular basis.
Day 2 - Your favorite character.
Otacon from Metal Gear Solid. He's the most realistic and loveable character I've ever seen in a game.
Day 3 - An underrated game.
Okage: The Shadow King. It's an early PS2 game about a boy who gets his shadow posessed by an evil king named Stan. Stan uses him as a means to get his evil power returned to him. It's a hilarious game with a bunch of weird and quirky characters.
As an honorable mention I want to say Gitaroo Man, This is the game that got me into the rhythm game genre, which as most know is now my favorite game genre.
Day 4 - Your guilty pleasure game.
I has trouble thinking of this one, but I eventually realized I have one. Guitar Hero/Rock Band. As I just said rhythm games are my favorite genre, it must sound surprising for me to say that. But it's the fact that I love rhythm games is why it's a guilty pleasure. While I like these games, I also at the same time, loathe them. And it's percisely my love of rhythm games why I hate them so much. I believe it's because of these that rhythm games are a dying genre. Because when people hear "rhythm game" they automatically think guitar hero and rock band, instead of Gitaroo Man and Space Channel 5. The quirky Japanese rhythm games have no market in America because of this.
Day 5 - Game character you feel you are most like (or wish you were).
The only one I could think of would be Shadow the Hedgehog. When I was younger I was a bit delusional, believing myself to actually be Shadow. Now that I'm older and mentally stable for the most part, I'm less Shadow-like. But we're still extremely similar.
Day 6 - Most annoying character.
That would probably be Flonne from Disgaea. She's so obnoxious. I used to hate her, but learned to like her just a tiny, tiny bit after Disgaea Infinite. I want to see her get cut up by Mao. I guess I'm kind of disturbed that way xDD. Anyway, she's still the most annoying.
Of course, if they used 'most hated' instead of 'most annoying', I'd have to go with Naomi from the MGS series.
Day 7 - Favorite game couple.
Snake x Otacon from the Metal Gear Solid series. It's the most canon noncanon couple I've ever seen.
Day 8 - Best soundtrack.
I really can't say. This is something I've thought about a lot. And I can never come to a conclusion. I think it would be a tie between Baten Kaitos and Final fantasy 10
However, there's also; We Love Katamari, Pokemon Red, Gitaroo Man, Megaman 2, and Sonic Adventure
Day 9 - Saddest game scene.
Probably in MGS2 where
*SPOILERS IF YOU HAVEN'T PLAYED IT*
Emma Emmerich dies and Otacon's reaction. It's both incredibly sad and epic at the same time.
