Live it. Breathe it. Speak it. Search for it. Find it. Buy it. Collect it. Play it. Archive it. Love it. Never sell it. Never forget it. Never regret it. Hardcore Gamer For Life!

I'm mainly into Virtua Fighter, Resident Evil, Phantasy Star, Street Fighter, and King of Fighters. I've been playing Virtua Fighter since age nine (Spring 1996), and have been a hardcore player ever since. I plan on traveling around the world to play in a few years, and my dream is to go one on one with Eiji "Chibita" Komatsu, the world's most famous Virtua Fighter player.

I also enjoy writing quite a bit. I started writing back in March of 1998. I've since written three complete short stories, and started on numerous unfinished ones.
