    I took a week off for the release of Diablo 3 haha!

    I also frequently use game references in regular everyday talking and am worse by using movie quotes to make a conversation with friends.

    I also named my dog Link, everyone should know what that name is from XD

    You started programming BASIC as a kid on a TRS80.
    Remember when Haynes Modems ruled.
    Remember the OSUNY days of the F80 and CDC that was ROACHED.
    Can identify with the green text on a black screen loaded from floppy that might start, "You're in a room. There is a small fire in the north corner. You hear talking...."

    I took a week off when Skyrim came out and logged 199 hours of game play that week. Probably one of the reasons I am fat. Haha.

    When you play so many FPS' that you think to yourself when you're walking around a corner IRL, "hmm maybe I should throw a nade around the corner before I walk into that room" then you realize it's real life and decide you should probably stop playing Counter Strike for at least a couple days.

    I let them do their business and then pay them, once they get out of the car I shoot them and take my money back, works every time!

    You have a long and heated argument with your BF about what constitutes an AI v.s what constitutes a robot.

    OMG counter strike!!

    I used to be ranked in like the top 100 players at that game!! I was the original "Boom[HS]"

    There's a video of me on Youtube somewhere still I think getting a headshot with a Deagle across the dust2 map. :D

    I spent far too much money building a "Crysis Rig" when that was all the rage!
