This is by far my favorite thread I've found that I haven't started...I don't know where to begin! Now I by no means have had as many consoles as AzIrish, but I have owned or played the following:
Gameboy
Gameboy Advance
Gameboy SP (it counts even though it technically played the same games as the latter)
Nintendo DS
PlayStation
PlayStation 2
Xbox
Xbox 360 (3 of them

)
Nintendo 64
Nintendo Gamecube
DOS (yeah that's right)
PC
But my staple in gaming is my Xbox 360. I am a Mac guy now (don't crucify me!!) so I stay with consoles. I love Squaresoft/Square Enix and Final Fantasy. Only I, II, III, VII, VIII, and IX. X was okay. I love Bethesda Game Studios. Their games are awesome. I love RPGs. I've played Skyrim almost 220 hours between two characters. Fallout 3 at least 400 hours between 5 characters and three Xbox LOL. 200 hours between 2 characters. I love any RPGs because I love the ability to roam and make decisions etc. The best part is how you're rewarded for exploration.
Naming characters alone will last me about an hour mainly because I think of their name and their background story first i.e.
Wretched Gretchen (Skyrim) - A woman who has been played by too many Nords and Elves. She is tired of men who don't commit and has embrace her "Wretched" cold heart. Men in Skyrim be wary. Right now level 45...656 armor rating.
Kathleen Ferguson (Fallout: New Vegas) - A woman who survived the bombings. Her husband and only child were killed in the blast and she is now a harlot. She loves all the men she encounters and is finally embracing her new single life. She wears glasses to hide her seductive eyes.
Reign Fitzmichael (Fallout: New Vegas) - An elderly gentlemen who left his family to explore the west...then the bombs dropped. Somehow his fragile body survived and he now is a serial killer in the Wasteland.
Yeah..and you may ask do I keep their themes throughout the whole game...yes.
