I've always been an avid video gamer since around age 5 w/ the Atari 2600. Now with poker in my mind these days, the only video games I play are drunken Mario Kart sessions at home or go to GameWorks w/ buddies... not too many online RTSes for me anymore. I think they're fun still, tho.

I got sick of the CS aimboters eventually...not to mention I got tired of FPS games.

I only played competitively for a short time.

Other random video game fun facts no one cares about:

I bought a PSP that I rarely play. I buy console systems that I don't play...not to mention I like online computer games better. Bad habits die hard.

I worked at the Nintendo call center for a bit while in college. The smoking break room had my favorite old school game Robotron. It was/is set up on the highest difficulty level, minimal lives, and lowest "free life" point setting. Now that's hardcore. The lead dev. of Golden Eye was probably the best player at the time.

I blame my brother.... I was happily addicted to CS:S, then introduced me to online poker... I've tried to move back but...

The thrill is gone...

I used to play Diablo2 and Total Annihilation quite a lot.

I used to rock some faces on counter strike. I also played Magic until I was like 16.

Used to play a game called Enemy Territory very competetively. I also had a huge addiction to Q3:CPMA and QW, but I never competed in either one of them.

I was so addicted to the Tom Clancy Urban Operations for a couple years. I remember being at a strip club with a friend. We both looked at eachother and said we'd rather be playing video games. Yes I'm special.

I just thought it was pretty cool playing in a clan when you're all on voice comms laddering against others from all over the world.

Overall I'm loser at online poker. But I still don't spend near what I did in gaming.
