30 Day Game Quiz - Days 11 through 20

Nobody replied to the first one but I remain determined, let's do this!

Day 11 – Gaming system of choice
I would say the Nintendo DS, but then it broke. So now I will say it is the Playstation 3. However the Playstation 2 and Nintendo DS are the greatest systems of all time.

Day 12 – A game everyone should play
I think everybody should play GRAND THEFT AUTO 3 (or VICE CITY or SAN ANDREAS), I know this seems like an odd choice but it is for a good reason. It is often I will attempt to have an intelligent conversation about videogames and I must mention the mechanics/design of GTA3; and the other person has decided to be an obstinate son of a bitch who refuses to ever play it, thus the conversation ends.

Day 13 – A game you’ve played more than five times
There is a lot of games I played more than five times, although this was more my tendancy back in the old days when there wasn't so many games to deal with. Out of all games I have probably played through Final Fantasy IV the most.

Day 14 – Current (or most recent) gaming wallpaper
I'm not entirely sure, It might of been for Tactics Ogre (PSP) or something.

Day 15 – Post a screenshot from the game you’re playing right now
Right now I'm going through Fallout: New Vegas. You don't need a screen shot do you? But I feel inclined to do what the quiz tells me without excuses so here:

It's a cool game.

Day 16 – Game with the best cut scenes
I was very fond of the cutscenes in the Metal Gear Solid series because they would use the ingame models rather than another set of models, I got to respect that they didn't go all CGI to sell more copies on LIES like most games at the time. Nowaways this sort of thing is normal but I'll still say Metal Gear Solid 3 was the best.

Day 17 – Favorite antagonist
Wesker is great, classic badguy. M.Bison (dictator) and Geese Howard are timeless classic heels too. Koei's Cao Cao has some good badguy lines (MY AMBITION CANNOT BE STOPPED!) but not a true antagonist. Liquid Snake was also very amazing with maybe the greatest final boss fight (bare-shirted brawl atop the Metal Gear with the stakes of your girlfriend exploding). But above all those I pick Pokey (Porky) because he is terrifying.

Day 18 – Favorite protagonist
This is a bit like favorite character except with the good guys, and I can't just say Big Boss again. one hero I really admire is Ramza Beoulve; He is heroic but not stoic or naive. He has resolve that isn't too cold or hot. He's like the Himura Kenshin or videogames (And Kenshin is one of the best heroes ever).

Day 19 – Picture of a game setting you wish you lived in
Oh lord I guess I'll need to post more pictures...

Harvest Moon (snes)! This game made me want to live in a farming town.

Day 20 – Favorite genre
Judging by my game collection it may be considered to be to be RPG's, but I don't really place any genre above another. I like beat-em-up, RPG's, FPS, and Fighting Games a lot but sometimes I just want to play strategy, or (any other genre).

I have AE, for the PS3. I might get it for PC because Johnny has it, but I will need a pad first and such.

or a stiiiiiiick. :D Way too expensive but maybe you can get a used one somewhere in The Big City? Although no good for you to have a 360 stick I guess, I don't think PS3 sticks are compatible w/ PC. Can always dual mod, OR you can get one of these bad boys: http://www.canadianjoysticks.com/products/Qanba-Q4-3-in-1-Real-Arcade-Fightstick-Xbox360-PS3-PC-Comaptible.html

(stick takes a little bit to adjust of course but unless you are godlike with a pad, it will create an improvement... I recommend sticking with a square gate too and not modding in an octo right away, you won't regret it)

I had a square-gate, I didn't like it. Then again the stick I got wasn't the highest quality (it was something like the low-budget hori). I ended up selling it because I was murdering my arms using it.
