Fell in love with gaming frequenting the large arcades of the 80's. Pinball machines are the top of my list for games in cabinets. Otherwise my favorite arcade games include anything with vector graphics (Tempest, Battlefield, Asteroids), Missile Command, Centipede, Donkey Kong, Gauntlet, and the Street Fighter Series. I own an original cabinet, second board revision, Missile Command with original hardware.

As far as game consoles go my first system was the Radio Shack TV Scoreboard. I started playing it in 1978. Since then I have owned, in chronological order, an Odyssey 2, an Atari 2600, an Intellivision w/Voice Module, a Nintendo, a Sega Master System, a Sega Genesis w/CD, a Turbo Grafix 16, a Super Nintendo, a Playstation, a Nintendo 64, a Sega Dreamcast, a Playstation 2, an XBox, an XBox 360, a Playstation 3, a Wii, an XBox One, a Playstation 4, and an XBox One X.

I first got into PC Gaming playing Kidnapped on an Apple IIe in the computer lab at school. The first PC of my own was a Commodore 128. A great machine that I still have. Lots of great games. I had that until I built my first IBM compatible in 1993. It was a 486DX 33, 4MB of ram, 260MB hard drive, 4MB of video memory, a 2X CD Rom drive(unheard of and $600.00 at the time.), and a Pro Audio Spectrum 16 sound card. Civilization II and Wing Commander Privateer were my number one time sinks even edging out gainful employment by a small margin. I have had a very good gaming rig ever since and when Steam came along it was a great fit for me.
