OT: How old are you ?

Hi, I'm 28, previously a computer game programmer (Sega's NHL 2K2 for the Dreamcast) but gone back to school because i can't get a job

I taught myself how to program on the Atari 800 way back when I was 9. Been hooked on computers ever since, learning C in High School and recently enrolling in a Game Programming class at Palomar College.

My first strategy game was either Perfect General or Empire Deluxe, can't remember which was first, but I had both. I also can't remember where I found SEIV but I'm glad I did. I hope to take a crack at PBW as soon as the server is back up (Go Schmo!). I also play RTS's and FPS (shooter or sneaker (Go Garrett!)) but my fave is space flight sims (cut my teeth on Star Raiders).

I also enjoy roleplaying games, such as Champions and V:TM, but my favorite system is GURPS (although not really a RPG, I also love Car Wars)

Many Victories!

EDIT: Can't believe I left "strategy" misspelled for so long.
