My first gaming experience was when I played at my grandmas house and played Metal Slug X with my brother and cousins. To be frank my gaming was brief and short since I was usually the last to play and the first to die. Later on in around 2007, I played my first shooter - Halo: Combat Evolved. Man was that a kick. I logged on sooooo many hours on that game. I never did beat it on full Legendary mode. That game was the gateway for me to play other shooters, such as COD4 and Republic Commando.

The stories for those games were amazing, and it was the first time I truly connected to the characters I've fought alongside with. Ever since then, whenever I saw a character I like in the game, first thing that pops in my mind was "They're gonna die. Better not get too attached." This was my feeling for MegaMan Zero 4. My heart sank when I realized Zero died. And I felt mad when Jackson and Vasquez died from the nuke in 4 and was even more mad when Gaz and Griggs died, but felt so satisfied when I shot Zakaev. But nothing made me more sad than in Republic Commando when Sev went MIA and I had to leave him behind. I REALLY wanted to go back for him. He was my psycho bro in red..... ;-;
