I've been playing Video Games for 2 decades plus now...including such systems as the Atari2600, Commodore 64, vic-20, Colecovision, Intellivision, etc.....
I became a Nintendo fan with the release of the NES (still have it today), switched to Sony for the original Playstation, progressed to PC Gaming, and have been with Microsoft since Xbox 1.
Today I am primarily a Xbox 360/PC gamer and every once in a while I'll play on the Wii. Over the years I RARELY played online games (with the exception of Counterstrike and Halo 2) until I saw a post from VirtualHuman about AGE on the AVSForums.
Fast forward a few months.......now my friends list is full and I play multiplayer almost as much as single player. Without AGE that would not have happened.
My other interests include UVA athletics (Football season ticket holder...GO HOOS!), attempting to play golf, building and modding PCs, and of course raising my 2 daughters to be 2nd generation gamers....heh heh.
