seventheGenres/firsts.
1.What was the first video game you have ever played?
I would assume Super Mario World for SNES, as I had no previous video gaming opportunities besides, maybe, Oregon Trail. (!!!! OREGON TRAIL!!! !!!!)
2.What was your first console?
SNES, baby.
3.Have you ever visited a video game arcade?
Yes, but I was babysitting at the time.
4.What was your first handheld?
Ancient Game Boy. I am a Tetris Master.
5.What was the first game you've beaten/cleared completely? (Got to the last level/got 100%/beat high score, etc.)
Yarg. Um. Probably Super Mario World, though if you want "completely" the honour goes to FFVI. (FFIII/US)
6.Games based off of real sports: Yay or Nay?
Unless they are fighting games where you can kick ppl, no thanks.
7.Online games: Yay or nay?
Not really.
8.Do you play any Massively Multiplayer Online RPG games? (MMORPGs?)
Nope.
9.Do you play any virtual pet games? (Neopets, Teripets, Aftermathzone, etc.)
Uh no.
10. Puzzle games and Strategy games: Yay or Nay?
Yay! Usually. Though I have a short attention span.
11. Do you play any RPGs?
UM YES. HELLA YES.
12. Do you play any Platformer games?
I don't even know what that means.
13. What was the first game/console/handheld of yours that stopped working?
My SNES is still a little sloppy.
Characters/Plot
14. Do you actually care if a game has a plot or do you just play games for the gameplay?
I prefer having a plot, but you can't have all plot and no gameplay, either (FFIX NE1?)
15. Name a few video game characters that are your favorites.
*snerk* Um
(FF4) Rydia, Cecil; (FF6) Terra, Setzer, Locke; (FF7) Vincent, all the Turks; (FF8) Quistis, Irvine, Edea; (FF9) Freya, Amarant; (FFX) Rikku, Auron. Yes they're all Final Fantasy characters STFU. [Here: you can also have (HP) Ginny, Lupin, SNAPE OMFG SNAPE IS MY DADDY.]
16. Name a few series that are your favorites.
Final Fantasy! Mah!!
17. Has a video game ever made you cry?
No, actually.
18. Has a video game character annoyed you so much that you wanted him removed from the game? If so, name the character.
Um yes. Anyone from FFIX who isn't Freya and/or Amarant.
19. Do you "pair" or "ship" characters up with one another? (make/create/write romance involving them)
Yes sir. Often in poorly-explained threesomes. But only in my head.
20. Do you write video game fanfiction?
When I have the TIME
21. Do you draw video game fanart?
I try. I am not very good.
22. Do you come up with theories on how a character came to be/what he or she would do in a situation/why he or she is moody/etc.
Yes sir!
23. Are you a "fanboy" or "fangirl" of any character?
TOTAL
Boss Battles/Villains
24. Hardest Boss Battle
Um. I dunno, really. I remember having to call the help line while beating Chrono Trigger with my brother, but I think that was more because he was whiney. Or, fighting the Four Fiends inside the Giant of Bab-il in FFIV. OMFG THAT WAS HARD.
25. Most Frustrating Boss Battle
FFIX. I hated the game anyway and after I died the second time I said FUCK IT and quit. Or YUNALESCA. FUCK YUNALESCA. THAT BITCH.
26. Most Rewarding Boss Battle
I dunno. Kefka, perhaps, because that game was just SO LONG. Usually by the end I'm more sad that the game is over.
27. Funnest Boss Battle
Anything where the boss talks back.
28. Most Boring Boss Battle
OK, apparently I don't pay enough attention to boss battles. HA!
29. Boss Battle that dragged out for a long, long time
Anything from FFVIII or FFIX where you have to watch the entire summon animation. YARGH!
30. Boss Battle with the coolest music
Music = FFVII. Damns.
31. Most Surprising Boss Battle
I read ahead so usually I know what's coming.
32. What's your all time favorite villain?
I like Edea/Ultimecia because she is creepy and sexy and magical.
33. What's your all time least favorite villain?
Huh. Kuja just sucked. And Yu Yevon was like a little glowing tick, LET-DOWN NE1?!
34. Do you ever feel sorry for the villains?
Occasionally. When Edea was bad. And I felt for Golbez.
35. Are there any villains that seem like they should be playing for the good guys, but aren't?
...this is a major plot point in any FF game!
36. Most malicious villain
Malicious? They all are, really. Let's face it.
37. Most surprising villain
KAIN I KNEW U WERE EBIL ALL ALOGN
Favorites
39.What's your favorite 3D game? (PS1/N64/Saturn generation)
PS1? FFVII.
40.What's your favorite arcade game?
Um. SKEEBALL. I don't do arcades really.
41.What's your favorite next-gen game? (Gamecube/PS2/Dreamcast/X-Box)
FFX. Or HALO. Man, do I love me some Halo.
42.Sequels/long series: Yay or nay?
Possibly. But look at the shite that was FFX-2. Leave it up to the fanits, people!
43.What's your favorite Online Game?
I've played only Diablo II and Warcraft.
44.What's your favorite console?
PSII!
45.What's your favorite handheld?
I've only ever had Game Boy
46.Have you ever got yourself involved in a "console war"? (arguing that a console is better than another console)
Uh no.
47.Have you ever defended a character/game/console you liked in an argument? Which one?
Uh yes. Characters and games. I will not divulge further ^^
48.Name a game that you like but everyone else seems to hate.
I dunno. Most FF games have a broad enough fanbase that you can fight just about anything.
49.Name a character that you like but everyone else seems to hate.
Rikku? No, I guess people like her. Yuffie? ...No, people like her too. Damns.
50.Name a game that you hate but everyone else seems to like.
I cannot understand the attraction of FFIX. Honestly.
51.Name a character that you hate but everyone else seems to love.
Tee!! There are too many!!
Miscellaneous
52.Have you ever stopped before you finished a game because it was too frustrating to go on?
Yes. In fact, I still haven't beaten FF8. *shame*
53.Will you stop at NOTHING to get 100% in a video game?
Don't give a shit!
54.Have you ever injured yourself at a video game? (Space Invader wrist and Mario Party 1 blister victims may answer yes)
No, but my brother and I spilled pop all over the place once and ruined a carpet.
55.Has a horror/survival genre video game scared you to the point that you refused to finish the game? Did you get nightmares from said game?
I got chills from watching Silent Hill(s) and Resident Evil(s).
56.Have you ever thrown a controller/disc/cartridge in a fit of frustration?
No! Those things cost money!!
57.Do you need to blow/clean certain games to get them to play?
Uh yeah. SNES = not for the endurance
58.Have you ever played a game for so long that you missed sleep over it?
YES. NO FURTHER COMMENT
59.Were you ever involved in the Pokemon craze?
The kids I babysat were, so I was by default.
60.Last but not least: Do you picture yourself playing video games 10, 20, or 30 years from now?
Hopefully!
Also: Is it wrong that my bass player has suggested we play "My Immortal" by Evanescence and I am rejecting the suggestion based on the fact that LJ and the emo wangsty FFVII fandom have COMPLETELY RUINED THE SONG FOR ME 100% TO THE POINT WHERE I CANNOT TAKE ANYTHING ABOUT IT SERIOUSLY?

Also I think the song actually require 3 hands to play correctly. I'm pretty sure you aren't hiding an extra one somewhere, but if you are thats

YOU ARE NOT SUPPOSED TO KNOW ABOUT THAT THIRD ARM EITHERno subject
Date: 2006-03-21 09:13 pm (UTC)Enter number of turns you would like to rest: 9
(9 Turns Pass)
Jeff has died from dysentary.
Sweet you would totally be popular at a gangbang with the 3 arms and all.no subject

...James has fallen into the river and drowned.
Oh, I know. I charge extra for the third armwait what? ;)no subject
Date: 2006-03-21 09:32 pm (UTC)You can ford the river, or pay an indian to guide you: Pay indian
Indian wants the bitch with 3 arms as payment: No deal, she's got 3 arms and we got three dudes in this wagon. Logistically it makes too much sense and this ain't no brokeback wagon.
As well you should you are giving them 50% more arm! That could be your slogan: Jessie, now with 50% more arm!no subject

Indian steals 10 pounds of your food and lights your waggon on fire.
It should. although btw i spell it Jessyno subject
Date: 2006-03-21 11:12 pm (UTC)(kill kill kill kill)
You have caught 1284 pounds of food, but you can only carry 200. Obviously you can't make two trips either to get more food, so don't even think about offering.
On the way back, Jessy gets bitten by a snake, Jeff breaks his arm and James tries to pick up an indian chick at a club and gets smacked. Overall wagon morale: low.
Yea I realized that after I already posted it. Sorry!no subject
Date: 2006-03-21 11:46 pm (UTC)You have lost all your food supplies in the river, and the only way the Indians will trade with you is if you offer them Jessy's right leg. Wagon morale: medium.
Jeff dies, but this means you have an extra ~150 lb of food. Wagon morale: high!
