Hey there, mate! I’m genetically enhanced and loving it! Smarts, strength and enhanced hand-eye coordination… That’s the way to go!

Now, I’m a BIG fan of the Half-Life series. Played Half-Life 2 first and went straight onto the original, the expansions, and mods and then proceeded to buy Episode 1 and now – finally – The Orange Box.

I love the story, I love the characters and I love the gameplay. That’s how it’ll always be. I’m also a big fan of such series/games as Deus Ex, Fallout, Mass Effect, Starcraft, Command & Conquer and pretty much anything by Will Wright. Of course, I will say that if I were to list ALL the games I own, I'd probably blow up VALVE headquarters... Then I'd commit suicide, because I blew up VALVE headquarters...

Nonetheless, to gauge my overall interests, I mostly like the Sim., FPS, RTS and hybrid Shooter (FPS/TPS)/RPG genres. I’m torn whether to say I’m primarily a single player or a multiplayer, since I’d usually say the former, but online games have sucked my delicious, tantalising life away for ages now. In fact, I love and am fairly decent at Team Fortress 2.

Ok, so I’m generally a good sport whilst online and am most definitely willing to help out those in need. Even then, I'm happy to accept any hints or tips from other players, as I’m always striving to improve my game.

In general, my favourite genre of any media is science fiction. (Yes, I'm a trekkie/trekker. My favourite series is Deep Space Nine - Which actually makes me a 'niner' - And, to be honest, I really LIKE Enterprise quite alot. But TNG is my next favourite after DS9.) I have a great interest in graphic design, drama and writing. My 'tools of the trade' include such programs as Macromedia Flash 8, Adobe Photoshop CS2, Audacity among a couple of others.

Other interests include squabbling around the Internet for cool sites. I primarily enjoy stuff like YouTube, (or WeGame) comics, blogs, forums, essays/articles, websites that dissect things (figuratively, of course), parodies etc. In a nutshell - I like a good laugh, a good watch or even just a good read.

That's about it, I guess. See you on battlefield, laddie/lass!
