See that tough look in Mac's photo? Scary, eh? But what a teddy bear he is. Well to us gals that is. Huggable, lovable Mac, is a man's man, who loves his wife, makes it known, and we place him on a pedestal due to it.

Thanks to gamer buds like Angel Fire 42, we have this guy on our playlist as well. She was so right about this down to earth veteran police officer, with his massive size, would tend a sick kitten, with tears in his eyes. You gotta love this guy. Move over Sam Fisher, Mac is making headway..hehe

My gaming life in a nutshell is pretty much this. I have been playing video games for a number of years. I have always owned an Atari or Nintnedo system but, the years I really started getting into gaming was with a friend of mine, we played Mortal Kombat. Sadly he died and his mother gave me his Sega Genisis because she knew we loved playing it so much. I pretty much got into gaming at that point. Sports, action, shooter, you name it.

I then purchased a Nintendo 64 and really started collecting games. In 2001 when the first xbox came out I was one of the first ones to get an xbox. I was never really a Playstation person. I did however start playing several games on the PC. This is where I got my love for RPG.

When Xbox live first came out I really did not know that many people so I mostly played SP. I then met Angle Fire 42 on the Splinter Cell forum boards and that was the start of a lasting friendship. I often refer to her as my second mom. We used to play hours on end a couple of years ago. As of late I have not been able to play like I used to and that is good in some ways and sad in others. I have changed jobs for the the better working with family but in that I have more time to do other things. Rrecently I have been able to do more with my time and do more things, but with that said, I will always have a special place in my heart for gaming. My wife and I have individual xboxs and have live memberships. Her's is on our upstairs TV and mine in the gaming room downstairs. We have even gone as far as cutting out unessessary programming channels on our Direct TV so we can actually play more and enjoy ourselves.
