    I used to be a big gamer but haven't really been into much anymore, really kinda stuck on the ps2-and earlier ages (but I still love those classics like old school Resident Evil, Final Fantasy, Pokémon, etc!).

    Recently started getting into DC/marvel shows and movies. The only comic I read now a days is The Walking Dead (also keep up with the show). Love books like Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy and Lord of the Rings.

    I'm also a huge nerd when it comes to real crime info. I'm addicted to ID and read books about serial killers, unsolved murders, and missing persons constantly! Which is a little less common.

    This is just a tiny look into to things. Totally up for talking more and adding friends!

    God I still play the old pokemon GBA games sometimes.

    I think new games just aren't nearly as good as the old ones so I just keep playing my classics!

    Very true, old school games are awesome. I still crack out the ps1 every now and then

    Pokémon soul silver was pretty good, but I guess it's sort of on the precipice of retro and just old lol

    I've still got a functional NES. I've been playing through Zelda 2 with my 5 year old.

    Also, hi everybody. Feel free to add me, I'd love to make some new friends with similar interests and fitness goals.

    Gaming- Playing Battlfield 1 at the moment, just finished borderlands 1 for the first time recently, likely about to start mass effect andromeda despite peoples hatred for it. Played a lot of games over the years, wow, skyrim, witcher, doom, wolfenstein, commander keen, xargon......

    TV- seem to watch a lot of sci fi, fantasy shows like doctor who, saw that 50th anniversary day of the doctor thing at the movies. Watching kill joys and iron fist at the moment. If it has magic or time travel or sci fi in it, i probably have watched it, even shameful things like teen wolf or true blood :neutral:

    Comics-barely read any comics, gave deadpool a go way back when the movies were first being talked about. Kept seeing screenshots that made me laugh.

    Books- The last few books I read were all the witcher books. Got half of one book to go before I have read them all, or at least all the main stories. Not a big reader, i think because I am too slow at reading, or something.

    Anime- Not a big fan, watched ghost in the shell SAC and 2nd gig, and Voices from a distant star, thats about it if you dont count things like pokemon or dragon ball z.

    I think thats it for main nerdy/geeky areas of interest, right?

    Witcher 3 is AWESOME

    I know! I love Geralt so much. I'm normally really bad at open world games and get stressed out by too many options but for Witcher 3 it's a lot easier to stay on task or choose to go off track if I want to. It's so fun

    read any of the witcher books?

    Ah cool. I have a super Nintendo so I think that's one generation later than the NES right? I have supermario for the SNES which I am a master speedrunner at :D

    I'm not really into comics, but I love the Marvel movies. I'm a die-hard tabletop game fan. Pathfinder, Catan, Dominion, just to name a few.

    Yellow was definitely good. The GameCube games were actually pretty good too

    Oldest system I got is a Vic-22 Commodore. Then of course NES, SNES, Wii, XBox, Xbox 360, XBone, mainly prefer PC gaming. EVE Online is my vice when my TBI isn't flaring up to the point of vertigo staring at the screen.

    Ooh I like this thread :smile:

    I can't say I have any understanding of the anime/manga stuff, not that I'm opposed to it, I just never got into it. PC Gaming and science fiction are what I love, though. FPS, RTS, and RPGs for gaming. Star Trek, Star Wars, Dr. Who, Ghostbusters, bring it all on when it comes to Sci-Fi.

    I've been fortunate enough to also attend DragonCon a few times. That's some crazy fun.

    WELL, I'M A DORK. GEEKS ARE SMART...lol!
    comics (about to start The Walking Dead whisperer war), manga, anime...almost any animation really.
    super hero movies and shows. Riverdale...go ahead and laugh.
    games, obviously. currently going through Rise of the Tomb Raider (I think I'm close to the end) and The Last Guardian on PS4. Danganronpa 2 on Vita. Dead Head Fred on PSP. Blaster Master 0 on 3DS!


    I love the walking dead comics! They are great, the whisper war story line is pretty good, it picks things up a lot because it's been petty slow every since the all out war ended. I am a few issues behind from being up to date. I have them here just haven't gotten a chance to read them.
