Multiplayer Name: TheRutgersCow, but I haven't played online for years.
Age: 23
Occupation: Law student
Location: Alabama
Favourite Console: Super Nintendo. Currently, X-Box. But the PC is my favorite platform.
Favourite Game: I'm not picking one. Twisted Metal 2 (PS1), Empire Earth, Freedom Force, and Fallout 2. Currently, Morrowind (PC) is making up for a terrible Morrowind (X-Box) experience.
First Gaming Memory: Atari 5200... everbody else I knew had the 2600, so my system was the freak. It came with two controllers, each with a keypad, and neither of the keypads worked at all.
Something We Don't Know: May 25, 1997 was dedicated to me in the state of Alabama, and there was really no good reason for it.

Re: Who are you and what do you do?
First Name:
Tony, mostly.
Multiplayer Name:
Take a wild guess - El Kabong for about 5 years now
Age:
33-ish.
Occupation:
Video game playtester at Sierra Online for the last 6 months, at Electrionic Arts for the previous 4 years.
Location:
Seattle
Favorite Console:
Of the current consoles, probably the Gamecube. The under-rated Dreamcast would be a close second, and the Atari 2600 would be the all time champ!
Favorite Game:
Jedi Knight. Few gaming experances beat swinging a lightsaber in the name of justice!
First Gaming Memory:
It was just before Christmas 1978 or so. I had just gotten my Atari, and only had the one packed in game - combat. Me and my bestest friend would sneak down to the living room every night well after everyone else in the house had gone to bed. A little bit of surgery on the wrapping and we'd managed to get the game out and still be able to reseal everything afterwards and make it look untouched.
This went on for a week, the clandestine sessions of Asteroids and Missile Command - and nobody was ever the wiser.
Something About You We Don't Know:
How about my list of games that I've tested -
Need for Speed 2 Special Edition
Need for Speed 3
FIFA 99
Rushdown (yeah, I'm sure you've never heard of it)
Motor City Online
Emperor - Rise of the Middle Kingdom
Empire Earth
And currently working on Malice
. . . .and my feet dont really smell.
