          If it wasn't for me having to go out and buy/rent games I would rarely leave the house. _________________

          Usually, but today just involved a lot of travelling.  Tired and worn out.     _________________

          Yes. Most of the time, I've got a lot of pent-up emotion, so if I go back and beat a game, such as FFX or Klonoa 1, I tend to cry like a baby. Not really something it's tought me, but it's something I do... I guess like my game is the shoulder to cry on (especially if it's because of too much stress)
 
 
Also, they've tought me about graphics. I'm kind of a graphics nut (hence why I'm taking a graphics class at school ^^), so when I see a game with supre-nice graphics, I usually don't go "Oh, that game must rock cause of the graphics!" I usually say "Ohhhhh, hey, I wonder how they got those to look less pixelated?"
 
 
Also, I've come to love video game music, no matter who it's from. I don't really know the dynamics of writing music, but I've learned to appreciate the time and hard work the composers put into the soundtrack.

          FFX made me question organized religion...
 
 
Not much else. Games just tend to make me happy or help me exert bad emotions. _________________

          Right now FFXI is getting to the point with the new expansion that it's questioning gods...    _________________

          I used to have to rent games, way back in the day when I couldn't afford to buy whatever game I wanted.  All my games that I owned were given to me as gifts for Christmas, birthdays, etc.
 
 
Since I started working, my game library has exploded.    _________________
