I'm not usually big on forum games, but I was going to make this topic anyway, and I figure I might as well give it a little extra "replay value". Lets see how similar we are.
Write a category in bold, list what you love, and then the following person can agree or disgree, add their own, and write new categories if they want.
Okay, so it's not a perfect game. I don't give a crap :P
Video Game Genres
Love: OLD SCHOOL! (Mario, Megaman, Kirby, Contra, Double Dragon, Punch Out!!, Zelda, all of the old greats. In fact, all I'm asking for is old school games and equipment for my birthday), FPSs (particularly Unreal Tournament 2004), RTSs (mainly the older Command and Conquer Series, and Starcraft), Puzzle games (tetris, Dr. Mario, etc.), I like some action/adventure games, and very very rarely like RPGs... usually only very unorthodox ones (Super Mario RPG, Paper Mario, and Earthbound).
Hate: Virtually every sport game every made, MMORPGs (lots of time, no skill. I'm not saying they're not ADDICTING... but addicting =/= fun. Only as social or antisocial as any other online game.), Most RPGs (again, no skill gained. "status" is proportional to time wasted.)
TV Series
Why is it that some of my favorite series always get canceled?!?!
Love: Invader Zim (Ingenius... Hilarious... Demented...Canceled...), The Brak Show (Completely off-the-wall, Politically Incorrect, Canceled...), Alias (Excellent show. Every episode was like its own little movie production. Love how it was comprehensive. Love how it dabbled just on the edge of possibility. Crappy last couple of seasons, but great nonetheless), Lost (Slow at times, but I'm addicted. I love the subtle nuances and comprehensiveness that J.J. Abrams once again includes), Pushing Daises (I like the weird morbidness of it and how it's told in fairytale fashion), H.O.U.S.E. (Great intellectual humor... Love the interplay between the characters and the characters themselves. I am also about to graduate from nursing school so I find the medical side interesting). The Office (Epic...), Heroes (Love the everyday life side of superheroism)
Hate: The News (It's not as "breaking" and "important" as they think it is... Weather can be checked online and I don't need to hear about how some girl was raped, some man went to jail, and two people died in a car accident), Any "Judge" show. ...usually just two dumb liars bickering, "Funny Videos" shows... (Idiotic staged videos with lame over-dubs is more like it...), Big Brother Series ("*NEW* Big Brother 47! It has new stuff, we swear!")... along with a lot of over-used reality TV series. Soap Operas (blah) COMMERCIALS!!! The most mindless drivel known to man. ...the vomit of TV... I guess it works on impulsive F-types, but dang... those really don't work on me... at all...
