Dreamwidth Party Time!

What do you use your Dreamwidth for?: NOT A WHOLE LOT. It is mostly a lurker journal at the moment, but I have been putting icon sets here. I plan on adding my meager fanfic output here eventually as well. So basically it's a fandom journal. :)

Besides games, what else are you interested in?: I like reading and anime and occasionally television and movies. I am a sucker for cooking and fashion reality shows.
Do you run any DW communities? (does not have to be game related): capslock_l4d is an infrequently updated capslock comm for Left 4 Dead. (surprise!) I do plan on doing...something...for 3 Weeks for DW, though! Feel free to join & post if you're interested. :)

Dreamwidth Party Time!

What do you use your Dreamwidth for?: Mostly fannish rambles, game updates and reviews, and memes. I guess sometimes there'll be fanmedia posted? I dunno, it seems like I'm too lazy to update more often than with just rambles. It also seems I spend more time fangirling reflecting over games than actually playing them. @_@
Are you looking for DW friends, friends to game with, or both?: More like DW friends, I'm not much for online multiplayer it seems (my PC is ancient, my brother hogs the PS3, etc...). I love reading about what people think about games and antics in general!
Besides games, what else are you interested in?: Erm...anime/manga, art, writing, music. Generic stuff, lol.
Do you run any DW communities? (does not have to be game related): Not yet!
Do you frequent other places on the internet that you'd like us to know about?: Check out my Backloggery account here!

Re: SO EXCITE

[terabient]

POP'N MUSIC!!! :D I love that game so much. There was an arcade about two hours from me that had Pop'n music 14, but then it closed. I haven't been able to play it since. ;o;

ffff, I know what you mean about fangirling more about games than playing them, especially when it comes to RPGs.

Mind if I add? ♥

oh god it's duck hunt dog

Are you playing Portal 2 on PC or 360? I don't have the game yet, but when I do pick it up it will be for the 360 (my PC won't be able to run it) and I'd love someone to co-op with. :)

tumblr totally makes me feel like a grandma because it STILL confuses me, but I've been trying to use it more often, lately. Yours looks really interesting - do you mind if I follow you, and add you to my circle here? Your post on the games and art was great - it's a position I haven't seen articulated anywhere else, and one that makes a lot of sense.

[terabient]

ooohh, Happy Birthday! \o/ I hope it's fun.

I'm pretty new to friending memes as well - this is my first time making one, and I've posted to like, 2 in the past? XD But there doesn't seem to be a lot of game-related activity on DW yet, so despite my general noobish-ness to friending memes I decided to try hosting one anyway. We can all be awkward together! ^_^;

KH fanfic makes me happy ♥ Mind if I add?

[tyger]

KH FM just arrived. It's going to be AWESOME. :D

Yeah, there's kind of not! Um. hardmode, easymode, and newgameplus for DW-only multi-fandom fic challenges? There's also girlgamers but that's really quite quiet.

:D Go for it! I tend toward the Axel/Roxas bent, generally, but I do bits of other things, too.

[terabient]

Tekken?
FFXIII??
DINOSAURS?!?!

Your interests are awesome. ♥ If you don't mind, may I subscribe to your journal? :) It looks really interesting.

[terabient]

I'm pretty sure I've seen some of your posts on my reading list...you're doing photo_treasure_hunt, right? I love that community and the pictures being posted this month. I really ought to comment sometime... ^^; I follow ff_fortnightly on LJ, but I haven't been checking it recently, and I didn't know they had a DW mirror! TIME TO JOIN.

I don't know my PSN either, I've downloaded like 2 things for my PSP

Mind if I add? :)

[terabient]

Bioshock ♥

I only have 2 other people on my 360 flist that play RE5 mercs, and my luck with random people is pretty terrible because it seems like everyone is a hardcore ninja at it and they're all hateful when somebody casual joins. BOOOOO

Anyway we should totally kill zombies together - do you mind if I add your gamertag? :)

Re: SO EXCITE

EARTHBOUND

ASDFGJKL

may I add please? :3

Re: SO EXCITE

[jack_of_none]

Yes please. XD

Re: SO EXCITE

[row]

Omg yay!! You're so lucky that you at least got to play it in arcade, I only got to play it like once at an anime convention and even then the machine was a little off kilter. It's such a fantastic game~~

And I'm glad someone can relate to me! Some of my friends just blaze through games while I'm sitting there clicking through fanworks between games...>_>

And sure! May I add you back? :3

[terabient]

HYPE DOOOOOOOOOOOG! \o/

If I had a PS3 I would definitely add you - not many people on my 360 list play Blazblue that much, and I'd love to get better at it. Alas, I am stuck in Xbox land and must make due with SSFIV and MvC3 (which are great, but still, Blazblue ;o; )

I used to play gaming tournaments in the New England area when I was in college, but I don't have the time or the willpower necessary to keep competing anymore. I do love following the tourney scene, though, even if I can't participate myself.

Mind if I add? :)

[jack_of_none]

That's what I'm here for! I am always happy to see BlazBlue fans, that game owns my very soul.

Curse you, impassable Xbox/PS3 divide! I run into so many random Xbox users that I want to play with :/

Good to see people with tournament experience ^^; I went to a multi-game tourney a year or so ago, with some of my friends...I didn't intend to play, just to watch, but I ended up being drafted into the Guilty Gear section so the numbers would work out. I was SO NERVOUS, but I got to the semi-finals nonetheless and felt pretty good about it, so I've been looking to try again.

Re: SO EXCITE

[terabient]

I'm so sad the arcade closed down. I would literally clear my schedule once every two months so I could make the 2 hour trip down there. x_x Sadly, that was still cheaper than trying to import the game + controller on PS2. *sob*

And fanfic has been like the biggest obstacle between me and Persona 4. It's weird because if I actually finish it I can read more fic but I just keep clicking links instead of playing... XD

I only have Steam because they were giving away Portal for free. Um.

You too, huh? I've picked up a few more games since then, but free Portal will always be the instigator.
