Well, whutever
Day 1 - Very first video game:
I used to have an old plug-and-play thing called a TV boy. It had 365 games. Though I did find a hidden 366th game.
Day 2 - Your favorite character:
Tough one. Revolver Ocelot and Big Boss are close to the top, but Zidane from FF9 is the winner I think. Also Heihachi Mishima is awesome too... Bah sod it, Zidane is my final choice.
Day 3 - A game that is underrated:
Monster Rancher on PS1. Very few people seem to have heard of it, but I've poured months into this game.
Day 4 - Your guilty pleasure game:
Hmm, I don't know. Noby Noby Boy maybe... It's from the creators of the Katamari games, but is even more bizare and makes less sense.
Day 5 - Game character you feel you are most like (or wish you were):
wish: Amarant Coral from FF9. The one i think I'm most like : The character I made in Demons Souls, because we both seem to pull off some unbelievable comebacks from crazy situations, and both seem to make stupid bloody mistakes at stupid times. Of course, that's probably because I was playing as them... but I don't make stupid mistakes like that in Monster Hunter, or other games where I made the character myself.
Day 6 - Most annoying character:
Vanille.
Day 7 - Favorite game couple:
Jun and Kazuya.
Day 8 - Best soundtrack.
Final Fantasy 9
Day 9 - Saddest game scene:
The alternative ending in MGS 1 where you fail to save Meryl. Also, there's a scene in Disgaea 3: Absence of Justice, that really got to me, but I wont spoil it for those reading this. Also Also, I bet there whould have been some really sad scenes in Heavy Rain if I had messed up, but I did ok, so my story was only a bit sad.
Day 10 - Best gameplay.
Monster Hunter. I went into it thinking it was just going to be a hack and slash affair. I was very wrong.
Day 11 - Gaming system of choice.
I have a PS3, PS2, Xbox360, Wii, PSP, 3DS, DS (The oldest model), and a decent PC. Right now, thew PC is ruling the roost, but my favourite gaming system changes frequently. One thing that's certain is that FPS, or generally anything First-person is better on PC, and platforming is better on consoles. To put it simply, in game where the left analog stick is the important one, console is the way to go, if the right analog stick is the main, PC is the system of choice thanks to the mouse.
Day 12 - A game everyone should play.
Portal series
Day 13 - A game you’ve played more than five times.
Final Fantasy 9
Day 14 - Current (or most recent) gaming wallpaper.
Team Fortress 2
Day 15 - Post a screenshot from the game you’re playing right now.

I can't be arsed to upload one, so let google help. I'm playing the single player on an easter egg hunt right now. You should have seen me and
zhugeliang in the multiplayer. We spent half the time sabotaging each other XD
Day 16 - Game with the best cut scenes.
Heavy Rain.
Day 17 - Favorite antagonist.
Revolver Ocelot
Day 18 - Favorite protagonist.
Zidane Tribal from FF9
Day 19 - Picture of a game setting you wish you lived in.
Monster Hunter. A world where massive hulking beasts roam free across the lands, and human civilization is limited to small towns and smaller villages. In this world, the food chain rules the land. It's kill or be killed.
Day 20 - Favorite genre.
Despite little mention of them thus far, FPS is what I have the most fun playing.
Day 21 - Game with the best story.
Final Fantasy 9
Day 22 - A game sequel which disappointed you.
Final Fantasy 13. I don't know what the fuck they were thinking with this one. And I have no idea why it got such good reviews. You spend literally 30 hours of gameplay just walking down corridor shaped levels. Sure, they look prety, but they are just corridors in the end.
Day 23 - Game you think had the best graphics or art style.
Graphics: For overall, MGS4. For best skin textures, Resident Evil 5. For best technical leap of its time, Final Fantasy 9. For best art style Okami.
Day 24 - Favorite classic game.
Doom.
Day 25 - A game you plan on playing.
Duke Nukem Forever. I'm almost scared to play it since it wont take much wrong to fill me with rage on this one. Still, I feel like it is my duty to play it.
Day 26 - Best voice acting.
Ellen McLain as GLaDOS.
Day 27 - Most epic scene ever.
There are a few in MGS4, the scene where Snake takes control of Rex. You should should have heard me laughing with sheer joy in this scene, expecially when Ray turned up and I trampled it into the dirt. And the final fight in MGS4 So many generations of battle were finally settled. And also Gray Fox taking on Metal Gear in a fight, actually it's quite tempting to add that to my "Saddest scenes" list.
But my favourite would have to be the scene in FF9 where Zidane awakes from unconsciousness, and staggers forwards into battle alone, only to have his allies turn up to help him despite his objections. The music in this scene is nothing short of incredible.
Day 28 - Favorite game developer.
Valve
Day 29 - A game you thought you wouldn’t like, but ended up loving.
Final Fantasy 9
Day 30 - Your favorite game of all time.
Final Fantasy 9
And I got no one left to tag thanks to
zhugeliang tagging everyone... O wait, he didn't tag

OP
In the literal sense, we are robots built for co-operative testing. We fail at the purpose we were built for XP
