Gamer Details
Bio: Okey doke! How are you? Me? I'm good. This is a pretty sweet site, no? I like it a lot!
I'm always up for meeting new people online, and if you want to chat or play something online, definitely hit me up. That sounded way creepier than I meant it to. Sorry. I'm not actually a creep!
I'm currently a university student, living in Halifax, Nova Scotia. My current major is Psychology, but I think I'm switching to English next year. I write a gaming column in my university's newspaper. Gaming is my passion, and I've been gaming since, literally, as long as I can remember. I want to make it my career, and am currently looking into what it would take to become a professional game journalist. If you have any advice, please let me know.
Outside of gaming, music is my fuel (also rum and brains). I'm really into punk rock (actual punk), psychobilly, and indie. Check out my music list below. I go to concerts to mosh. Floor tickets or nothing. bets pit I've ever been in was a small Casualties bar show at 2am, after a Rise Against show earlier that night. Very fun.
Anyway, I can't think of much more to say. I'm pretty friendly. Again, if you want to play anything on Live, just add me as a friend either here or on Live itself (add a note saying that you're from Gamervision, though, please).

I used to play the MMO. I played since the game was released, actually. Tauren feral druid (started out resto, though). I'll get back into it sometime. Probably when Wrath of the Lich King comes out. I just got tired of spending six hours a night if I wanted to get anything done, endgame. Also, being at least an hour ahead of most of my guild (2 or 3, usually), I had to be up way late all the time to raid. No good.
So now I play the TCG, and I love it. I have pretty bad ass shaman and warlock decks. Both Horde, of course.
-
My goal for the summer is to read Atlas Shrugged by Ayn Rand. Wish me luck!
-
Occasionally. I honestly don't drink that often, but when I do, dark rum is the poison of choice. I'll also accept Jagermeister or vodka. All in shot or double shot form. No beer, please. I dislike beer.

Games I'm playing/will be playing soon
|
-
This game is actually a lot better than I thought it would be. I've never really been a fan of GTA (though I had some fun with the first two). What really surprised me was the multiplayer. It's really way better than I was expecting. This really is an outstanding game.
-
Just started third disc, and making my way to Gohtza.
-
Portal remains one of the best games ever, and I'm currently addicted to TF2. I plan on playing through all of the HL2's this summer, after finals when things clear up.
-
I've already done one playthrough, but was somehow cheated out of a few achievements (I used Garrus nonstop from the moment I got him, but still didn't get that damn achievement!). Plus, I want to try out Bring Down the Sky and get to level 60 (only made it to 68 or 69 on my first playthrough).
-
Still need to finish that up. I'm at that level where it's really windy and the big guys keep pwning me to the point where I get impatient and turn it off. Haha. I know what to do now, and will do it soon. Still, one of the best $20 I ever spent.
-
I forget where I'm at, honestly, which probably means that I'm going to be way lost by the time I pick up the game again. Shit.
-
Pretty great. Finally got around to playing it a few weeks ago. If anyone ever wants to play co-op, let me know! We could work on a few achievements, maybe?
-
Need to work on drums. I'm still on easy, hahaha. I can do most songs on expert on guitar though. Need to work on shredding. I hate those parts.
-
Same deal. Need practice.
-
Admittedly, I'm not very far in. I'm not sure why, but I'm not enjoying it as much as I thought I would. Honestly, I just picked it up because it was $20 at a Boxing Day sale, and they were sold out of Rainbow Six Vegas. If anyone wants to play co-op online and help me finish the game, please let me know!
-
Going to Vegas this summer (WOOOOO!), and figured I should play these before going to pump myself up even more. I played Rainbow Six 3 on Xbox Live for a while back in the day, and really enjoyed it.
-
I will break you with Kirby. No questions asked. Been great with him ever since the first one just about nine (!) years ago. Makes me feel old.
Getting pretty good with Toon Link, too.
Also working on the last few challenges.
-
Shut up. I love this game. I'm a Marvel comic book geek. Still need to finsih it though. Again, if anyone wants to play co-op, let me know.

Hell yeah!!! It was great and I had tons of fun. I'll be on tomorrow almost all day so try to hit me up.
I'm a bit embarrassed that I've never really given Gears of War the time that such an awesome game deserves. And now that I have GTA IV, I don't know if it'll ever again see the light of day.
Have you added me on XBL yet? If you see me online, send me a game request. I'll be the guy playing GTA IV all fucking day!
I preordered mine back in October when the game was suppose to be release. I never been to a midnight launch myself but, there are stores that are doing that around here. I guess I'll have to wait till I get a car to be able to go to one. Hit me up on Xbox Live sometime xtr1ckx.
In honor of earth day, I thought I'd give you a little ditty about recycling!
Enjoy!
Thanks for accepting! Just working on the latest episode of the Somethingcast. Nice to see you're playing The Orange Box, I just started Half-Life: Episode 2 and I'm loving it.
I haven't played GRAW2 for awhile...I still need to grab the new DLC. But sure we can game sometime on that I'm getting kind of tired of COD4,
Thanks for the add....U check out Rainbow Six yet???
That's the one! I think it would be cool, though hidden in hair.
Checking out your gamercard, it appears we have very similar tastes in games. How are you digging Lost Odyssey?
Oh, and welcome to Gamervision! Hope you like it here.
Well say hey Nick! Thanks for the add friend.
