Video Game meme
I stole a video game meme from my flist.
1. What was the first video game you have ever played?
I can't remember that far back. >_<

The original Game Boy.
5. What was the first game you've beaten/cleared completely?
Don't remember. Maniac Mansion, maybe.
6. Games based off of real sports: Yay or Nay?
Nay. I don't like them. Except for WiiSports, that's fun but the Wii makes everything fun.
7. Online games: Yay or nay?
I'm in the middle. I like WoW and some other online games look interesting but the only other one I played was Final Fantasy XI and didn't really enjoy it.
8. Do you play any Massively Multiplayer Online RPG games? (MMORPGs?)
Only WoW.

Miscellaneous

I don't care about getting 100%.

Every NES game, lol.
58. Have you ever played a game for so long that you missed sleep over it?
Maybe...
"One more level, I'll get to one more level and then I'll go to bed... Of course the next level is 60/70 so I have to go get my mount first... and then since I just got my mount it would be a shame if I didn't ride it for a bit since I worked so hard for it..."
59. Were you ever involved in the Pokemon craze?
Trying to figure out what everyone was going crazy over. I was too old to be the target audience but at the same time too young to appreciate it as an adult.
