    WHY do you game?

    Initially it was for the sake of having something to do. At one stage it was so I could be the richest, best, highest ranked, whatever the multiplayer game was. Now its just a fun hobby to occasionally take part of. Definitely better than it being an addiction. You don't want to be playing games...

    How many clans have you been in?

    Well I'm not sure if this really fits the criteria, but back in the day when I played Minecraft I was part of many different little teams and it was great fun. Then on Warface I was part of a local clan that I found by chance. Was playing a random matched game and I found some guys from the same...

    How do you choose your games?

    With Steam games, I usually browse around the store and find something interesting that I think I'd enjoy. I check that the price isn't ridiculous first, because there is no way I'm spending over $50 for a game. I can understand if you want to do that, but its not an amount of money I'd be...

    Changes in gaming

    I feel like in the past few years, graphics have hit a bit of a speed bump. Sure, game sequels usually do look a bit better, but if you look at games like Gran Turismo, Forza and Call of Duty, the latter titles are generally not that much of a step up from their predecessor's. You would expect a...

    Favorite music from which game?

    Without a doubt, GTA: Vice City. San Andreas is a close second but as much as it did sort of capture the 90's theme rather well, Vice City did it even better by having the songs just have this sort of "connection" to that neon blue and pink 80's core. Whether its the bangers on VRock or the...

    When Gaming becomes an addiction

    Ah, yes, the addiction that sort of ruined my high school life. It all started with a (then) simple little game called Minecraft. It was already captivating and addicting enough on the singleplayer side, but when multiplayer became a big thing I was hooked. I spent tons of cash on servers and I...

    Do you pay for games?

    Of course! The only thing I can see, at least with piracy, being OK is testing a game first by pirating a copy and seeing if it runs on your computer and then buying the game afterwards if you enjoy it, or deleting the printed copy and moving on if you don't. But this only really apples to non...

    Best tower defense on Android?

    Kingdom Rush is probably as good as it gets. Beautiful cartoon graphics, a ton of content, good mechanics and a fluid progress system. As far as I remember, the game is free, although it did cost money before and even then it was worth the download. You essentially have this magical world and...

    What do you do when you have a flamer on your team?

    In games like LoL and CSGO you just have to deal with it or even better, avoid it to begin with. But this obviously can't always be the case. My friend group isn't always online when I am so there's usually a vacant spot and this has to be filled by a random player, which can both be a blessing...

    Most Disappointing Video Game Ending You have played? (spoilers, obviously)

    Eh, can't say I've played that many disappointing PC and console games, although I'd say GTA Liberty City Stories (PS2) while not inherently awful, was pretty disappointing considering when it was made. Need for Speed Pro Street was also a total flop. But on mobile I can give you an endless...

    How often do you buy new games?

    I make sure to only buy games that I know are going to be good and will provide at least 100 hours of gameplay. Reading reviews, watching videos on YouTube and getting a general idea of what the game is like and what you can do in it is pretty beneficial here. So I'd say usually I only buy a...

    Are there any games you can play over and over and never tire of?

    I'd say the Binding of Isaac. Not too sure about the first installment as that I think would get bland eventually due to its more primitive nature, but Rebirth and the Afterbirth DLC, makes for countless hours of fun. Forget Afterbirth + though, as that apparently just ruins the game by making...

    Difficulty or Fun?

    Depends, but a mix of a bit of both is usually the best solution. I think the formula that most good games follow is keep the difficulty high at the beginning, then make it more and more fun and relaxed as the player progresses and becomes more powerful, then hit them with that wall of...

    What languages do you know?

    I don't really know much right now other than basic HTML. But I really, really want to learn more and get into it full time. I've seen some great courses on sites like Khan Academy and YouTube and luckily this means I don't need to pay exuberant fees going to a school, I can sit at the comfort...

    Last Game Played?

    I actually recently deleted Steam on my Mac so I can focus more on working and learning, as I am currently finding courses to learn code and I'm trying to get into writing full time for websites as that is a passion I want to eventually turn into a job. But the last game I played, and really...

    Favorite Linux OS

    Linux seems really cool but I'm yet to try it out myself. I just never had the desire to add an operating system that doesn't really have that universal support for all the apps and games I want to play and use. Windows and Mac OS are just a bit more comprehensive and if you ever run into an...

    Metro series are getting another title - thoughts?

    I know that some of the Metro titles were met with criticism for being too bland and all, but I've always liked the unique setting and theme that the games proudly showcased. I watched the trailer for the latest installment and it actually looks really good. When he walked out of the darkness...

    Which MOBA game do you like the best?

    I haven't played any on PC or console so I can't speak to those, so the best one I've ever played (unfortunately) was Gameloft's Dungeon Hunter 5 on my iPhone. To be honest, for a phone game and for the year it was first created, its a pretty solid online game. Huge world with plenty of maps to...

    Your first online game?

    As far as I remember it was Minecraft back in 8th grade. It was so strange and surreal, I couldn't believe there was an entire online world inhabited and created by real people. I was hooked. It was on a local server that is long gone and some of my real life friends played on it. It was so...

    Video Card

    My MacBook has a crappy integrated GPU, the Intel HD 6000. To be fair, its a work laptop and I can't really expect any more. But for what it is it actually works really well. I can easily run mid range games like CS:GO and Borderlands. But with high end stuff it obviously can't keep up. But...
