Hi!
One night -- ages ago -- while bowling in our night owl league (11pm on Tuesdays), my friend and I hatched a plan to get free video games. We'd become reviewers. Since another friend's girlfriend edited a monthly in Chicago, we asked her if we could have a video game review column in her magazine. She asked her publisher, and he said "Yes." The goods started rolling in. Consoles, games, swag, etc.
One day Sega sent me a package that had PSO in it. I turned it on and thought "This is one of the dumbest things I've ever played." I proceeded to play for another 6 hours straight that day. I was hooked. The online stuff was wonky, so I mostly played alone until it came out for xbox. And then it was over. I was on ALL OF THE TIME, having made some great pals.
Time passed and I wasn't a PC gamer, so it wasn't until PSU was on 360 that I re-started up the ol' habit. That ended. Much despair.
But then I found out about this! Alas my old PSU buddy who told me about it bailed within a week (WTF!?) and now I mostly solo.
So anyway, hi! A lot of you seem very nice. I've somehow made it to level 140+. Eek.
