I could say I'm an avid gamer.
Lately, I've been playing 7 Days to Die. Any other players around here? My friends and I set up a private server through 7d2d.net for just $6/month, and we have some slots free. If anybody wants to join, PM me.

Years ago I was an Atari Tech fixing the game machines and computers all the way up through the Atari ST series which I was introduced to MIDI on it because it was the only computer with a built in MIDI interface at the time. I did play lots of games on the Commodore 64 and Atari. In the 90's I got hooked on the PC version of the Tomb Raider Series with Laura Croft. I still love Red Dead Redemption 2 today and I find some of these high end graphics are mind blowing. It seems like yesterday I was playing with 8 bit pixel graphics and now the latest 3D Unreal Engine stuff.
I have always loved high tech whether music or computer stuff.

I used to be. I had a ton of games for my Atari ST computers.
I even programed a couple of games for the Bally video game. A football game I did was published. I also did a golf game for the Atari but I didn't submit it for publication. I found out that those funny looking plugs on the Atari ST would allow me to record music so I purchased a keyboard and started on my MIDI journey.

{edit} I do have a WII and I still play pinball on it. I was a real pinball wizard back in the day. I still love real pinball games.

I've accidentally swallowed a load of scrabble pieces. My next trip to the toilet could spell trouble.

That's really cool Mario, that is how I got hooked into MIDI myself. I did not know you programmed games!!!
I went to Nevada Gaming and Technology school in Las Vegas to learn how to work on Poker, Slots and gaming machines. Included in my courses was Video Arcade, Jukeboxes and Pinball machines. I got to work on them old Bally Pinball machines and others in school. It was a lot fun. The strange thing is I never did go into the Casino trade. I ended playing music for some time and then moved to Arkansas and went to work for Xerox, Canon, and Sharp till I retired a few years back.

Having gotten my private pilot license as a younger man I have always been fascinated with flight. Not having the deep pockets and discretionary income necessary to rent, let alone own an airplane, I was forced to go with flight simulation. As far as games on a computer go, I've spent a lot of time with Microsoft Flight Simulator and a couple of other flight sims that put me in the cockpit of the worlds most advanced military fighters.

Funny story.... My oldest daughter also got into the MS flight sim. I had the 2000 version. One day I walked in and my daughter was flying a heavy jet. She was flying around New York City.... Straight ahead were the twin towers. Yep..... Plowed right into one of them. I thought to myself, where did I go wrong? But she turned out ok in the end. My daring outlaw flying consisted of flying a Lear under the Hudson bridges.

Aside from those and a brief period of fascination with solitaire and pinball, I don't really spend time with games. I've never gotten into the multiplayer games online. Not ever to check it out.

It's probably no surprise to most of you that I'm a gamer (as well as being both a BB user and musician) and I've written music and done sound design for games too. These days I mostly play Zelda or Souls style games, but I have a soft spot for RPG's.
