FAVOURITE GAMES: I have a lot of favorites. I'm a gamer, I love to play them - though the new generation of games is hard to keep up with. I don't really have the money to keep spending 65 dollars on games every few weeks ;( Maybe I'll just have to get a job at game stop. lol! Anyway... one of my all time favorite games has to be Resident Evil 4. I adore it. I love playing as Leon and i loved switching it up to play as Ada. It gave an entire new dimension to the game where I found myself going "You son of a..." lol. Leon's sarcastic demeanor makes me so happy - and the fact that he isn't jacked beyond belief, like Chris is in 5 is very pleasing to me. I just really love his character.

I'm a huge fan of RPGs. I love stories, there are only so many times I can go through games that don't have a solid story plot to get my through. I can not play FPS. They make me sick. The way in which the camera toggles gets me sick to my stomach, so it is suffice to say, I do not play Call of Duty, Left for Dead, or Halo.  As sad as it makes me, I tried - I almost vomitted. ;(

The consoles I currently have are the SNES, the PS2, Nintendo DS, and the XBox 360. I have the most games for the PS2  (37)! And I'm slowly building up my 360 collection at a staggering total of ten games! Oh snap! lol! I don't have many multiplayer games, so I dont really do too much online gaming, but I try. lol.

INTRODUCE YOURSELF
Hm, what to say about myself. I'm a 21 year old College graduate. I love playing video games, and if  I could do that for the rest of my life I would be content. I majored in psychology, so until I start grad school in teh fall, I have nothing to do - cause a bachlors in my degreee will get you no where.

I live with my grandmother, who doesn't understand gaming, or computers. She thinks I'm talking to pedophiles if I'm online past midnight.

I have a lovely boyfriend of a year and a half now, who loves gaming as much as I do. He, however, can play FPS, and he plays computer games - something I have no interest in doing. He's a year younger than me, but that's fine. He'll be 21 in a month! All will be well. lol.

I don't really find myself interesting, though I think I'm amazing. I'm sarcastic - and I think I'm pretty funny. But I guess I think pretty highly of myself. ;D Oh well. Ask me more if you want to know. I'm fairly open. And if I'm not ok answering that, I'll tell you ;)

To whom it may concern,

I've started a community, jrpgs_and_wrpgs, dedicated to the discussion of computer and console role-playing games, both of Japanese and Western origin. This is a really niche genre, and a lot of people who play these games prefer to play mainly these games exclusively. Due to the nature of these games, they can be quite addictive, engrossing, and the object of much obsession. Furthermore, there is no community on LiveJournal dedicated strictly to them. Almost all "RPG communities" on LiveJournal are fan fiction exercises, 'RPing,' collections of Final Fantasy icons, or general fangirl/boyism around a single franchise. There is no real discussion about these games going on, and there very well could and should be. This community is yet a seed, but if you like the idea, I encourage you to join, to encourage all your friends who would like it to join, and for all of us to contribute RPG related reading and discussion. That there is nothing like this currently on LJ is good reason that it could be successful, and it will be if we want it to be. I've been on LJ consistently since 2002, so your moderator will be here to stay, as will this community with your help. Furthermore, I can promise you that I am no control freak, will only mandate enough to keep order and productivity in the community, and will otherwise not be a tight ass, anal retentive fascist with a bunch of silly rules and a god complex. So, if you play JRPGs or WRPGs, please come on over, join, and start posting immediately about whatever RPG-related business your heart desires. I'm eager to find my peers in this.

xoxo,
Shane
