Hello - An Introduction of me =o)

Hello, my name is Chris.  My gamertag is: Flyboy80498.  I am a 34 year old male gamer from Elizabethtown, Kentucky.  I am a disabled USAF veteran that enjoys all types of games.  I do have gaming ADD.  That means, unless it is a favorite game, I tend to play the game and get disinterested in it fairly quickly (especially when another hot new game hits the market).  I'll play the game from beginning to end.  But if it doesn't rank in my favorites, it usually finds a spot on the "will get back to list" within two or three weeks.  That means I am always on the hunt for the next best game to be playing, or I fall back on my favorites (which I am doing right now with the Mass Effect series).

My favorite type of games are RPGs (IE: Skyrim, Mass Effect), Sports (IE: Madden, NCAA Football, and most recently FIFA), and some shooters (Like Mass Effect and Borderlands).  My favorite games are Mass Effect Series (to include the original ending of #3), Assassin's Creed Series, Borderlands 1 & 2, Skyrim, Fallout 3 and New Vegas, Bioshock 1 & 2 and Batman Arkham Asylum and Arkham City.  I lend games to friends, but my favorites absolutely don't get to leave my house, lol.  I am not so much into multiplayer games unless I can find good (meaning they are fun to play with), honest people to play with (and that can be difficult at times).  If the people that play multiplayer are fun to play with, are honest, and can put up with me learning whatever game we are playing, then I am all for multiplayer of any game.  It is when I come across the people who can't stand to play with me because I am new at the game, or am not very good at it because I don't decicate my entire gaming to the game that we are playing MP in, that I have problems with.  And those are the people that I politely excuse myself from their game =oD.

I also enjoy watching TV.  Sci-Fi, some reality TV (Survivor, skill based competitions, and job shows (like Alaska State Troopers)), comedy along with Drama are my favorite genres to watch.  Survivor, Battlestar Gallatica and Modern Marvels are my favorite shows.  I absolutely love to watch the History, National Geographic, Discovery, Military Channel.  I especially love the History Channel's newest mini-series that they are showing (like Mankind: The Story of All of Us, The Men Who Built America, and most recently Vikings).  I am VERY HUGE into sports.  More specifically, College Basketball (University of Kentucky fan here) and Professional Football (Green Bay Fan, grew up watching them with my family that is from Wisconsin).  I like other sports, but I am not as passionate about watching them as I am about College Basketball and the NFL.  I am also a longtime suffering Cubs fan (going on 35 years this year).   

I love the outdoors and spending as much time doing outdoorsy stuff as possible.  However with my disablities, I can not do as much as I used to be able to do.  So going to the park and throwing a line into the lake is a great time for me these days outdoors.  If I get the opportunity (and my body allows it), I love to snowboard and snowshoe.  I love to hike and bike.  But those are all activities based on how I am feeling that day.  And if I do them, they are in moderation.  Even then, I pay for doing them with being severely sore the next day from chronic stomach pain (from being shot).

When I get the opportunity (meaning when my ex-wife isn't a world class *****) I get to spend time with my 12 year old son.  Currently I travel back and forth to Missouri to see him twice a month.  And of course he is 100% the focus of everything during the time I am with him.  Everything I described above goes to last of the important list when he is with me and he is #1 on the important list at all times.  Even when he isn't with me, I try to call him three to four times a week so we can talk and BS on the phone (or Skype). 

That's me in a brief, or semi-brief, LOL.  If you have any questions, feel free to ask.  I am always willing to answer most of them.  I am also ALWAYS looking for great multiplayer and co-op players for games (especially newer games)

Chris
