I'm home!

deepdish · 02-16-2009, 06:04 PM

Hey, folks.

Didn't notice any sort of new member intro forum, so I'm making a post here (sorry if it ain't the place or part of the protocol).

I've got to tell you guys though: I'm HOME.

I'm a huge adventure gaming fan. I'm 23, and I grew up during the '90s golden age of Adventure gaming, piloted by Sierra and LucasArts. I did a countless amount of book reports on the Gabriel Knight: The Beast Within novel in middle school and high school. The only framed picture I had in my dorm room in college was not of my family or girlfriend, but rather a personalized, autographed photo of Jane Jensen. I beat Evidence: The Last Ritual ... with a walkthrough (okay, who didn't?).

Anyways, y'all get the point. I'm just really happy to be here and see so many people who share the same passion I have. I know only one other person in my life who loves Adventure games, and he's not as obsessed with them as I yam. It's going to be fun to hang out here and to learn about a lot of new games I otherwise wouldn't be familiar with.

Looking forward to yamming it up with you guys!

Best,
Deepdish

Another Gabriel Knight fan boy. Hooray! Welcome, you're in good company. I'm thinking you'll fit in well here. I take it you know that Jane Jensen has another game on the horizon?

Welcome, deepdish!

You came for the love of adventure games, but we hope you'll stay for the insanity that is the Chit Chat subforum!

Don't let the loonies scare you away. They're quite harmless.
