Nine ball

well my spectrum of tastes have changed ALOT since I first came here, so no where near as obsessively charged into the armored core franchise as my name and avatar pic suggests ( disconnected to other titles to the point of autism I think XD). While I still hold Armored core dear, it;s kind of stagnated as a franchise hasnt it? (one trick pony much... >.>?) well anyway...

my interests include:
Drawing (though just started), Movies, anime, learning languages ( learning japanese atm but on hold due to uni commitments) and a massive fan on underground electronic music and counter-culture media.
I am big into retro gaming circa 1984 - 2001, but where my current passion now lies in 90s pc games which for some infinitely retarded reason I missed out on in favour of putting many hours into FF7 and armored core 1.

Massive fan of the cyberpunk genre recently and might start lingering in those area on here if they are still open. In the future planning on setting up a blog for exploring rare/obscure ps1 games and anime (which I am reasonable well read in.. I guess. hey how many of you remember tail concerto or space griffon vf-9 for ps1?.. did'nt think so).


list of games I like:
Armored core series( I guess), System Shock 1+2, Metroid 1 and 3, the Castlevania series (recent fan of the 2D metroidvania, god what have I been missing?) Deus ex, Anachronox, Final Fantasy 7, Aleste Musha, Sam and Max hit the road, The secrets of Monkey island, Street fighter 3 third strike, Klonoa, Jumping Flash, fallout 1 + 2 (three is ok.. but meh) Blade Runner (the westwood point and click adventure), Alien Infestation, Thief 1 + 2 (deadly shadows wasnt quite up my street), Alien Vs predator: the arcade game (not the fps games though the first two in the 90s was ...ok)

fav movies: Ghost in the shell, Dr Strangelove, Fight Club, Princess Mononoke, Seven Samurai, Anything by stanley Kubrick, My wrongs 8245 9249 & 117, Patlabor 1 + 2, Fargo, The Big Lebowski, Clerks 1 + 2, Dogma, Alien, Aliens, Blade Runner, Lost in translation, Brazil,

Fav tv shows: 15 storeys high, dead set, Brass eye, Jam, The day today, Luther, Breaking Bad, The Wire, Spaced, The Peep Show, The Thick of it, Stewart Lee's Comedy veichle, South Park, The Tick, The Maxx,

fav anime: SDF macross (1982), Outlaw star, Great teacher Onisuka, Golden Boy, Evangelion, Serial experiments Lain, Fullmetal Alchemist, Cowboy Bebop,
