damn im old..... thought i would start writting this and see where the journey took me...
i started playing a zx spectrum 48k with a tapeloader, grew up playing games like ManicMiner, JetSetWilly, MontyMole, SaburWulf, AtticAttack, Pssst..
i got a mastersystem when i was 10 ish, with built in AlexTheKid. Played Sonic on it mainly..
growing up around othe members of the family we played on systems like the intellivision playing LocknChase and Golf, TransAm.
then i was fortunate to get an Amiga600 in my early teens, playing classics such as Zool, Wing, Goal, Flashback and AnotherWorld. was fortunate enough to be friends with a kid who had a megadrive and an n64, so playing Starfox, and the MortalCombat series.
then late teens got into the PS1 with RidgeRager, DestructionDerby, TombRaider, Tekken...
then it just goes on and on, played on most consoles, i have a homebrewed PSP i still play (TacticsOgre) a 3DS i stick on at night some times, playing either Fantasy Life, Or FinalFantasyTactics Grimore of the rift... played all the MonsterHunter games since MH2,.
Serious PC gaming kicked in later teens early 20s with Mir and WormsArmageddon, RollerCoasterTycoon was another great game.
used to have massive weekendsers with my mates where we would all play PointBlank and micromachines via multitap on ps1 >.<
moved to derbyshire after i met a girl playing CS 1.6, got into wow, wasted 2 years, got fat and unhealthy, left her and moved back down south... have played most AAA titles at some point but my passion has always been mir, the late nights in rme kr with Hardonails..... watching LOTR on replay waiting for 3 hour respawn... mental times...
now im 40.... have 3 kids, eldest is 10... still love mir, always will, i enjoy the early game, the passion and the leveling and the joy the game can bring..
here i am just reminiscing of the past and excited for the future, especially looking forward to my final server, euroreborn, im hoping it can become a place some of you can make memories i have of the game, i guess time will tell.
