My gaming career began at age six, by blasting apart aliens in the bowels of AREA 51 at the local arcade.
By nine, I was obsessively shooting apart alien ships of the skies of Earth/the Moon in INCOMING(PC).
My entrance into the console wars occured on my PS2 w/ TEKKEN 4 at age 13. This was the first time I did anything other than kill aliens, instead KOing regular (?) people.
By 15, I had grown bored of killing aliens and and focused on killing metal heads and KG robots in JAK 3, and German dudes in some WWII shooters.
By 16, I had discovered the joys of not killing my enemies, but instead sneaking by them, thanks to METAL GEAR SOLID 2: SONS OF LIBERTY and METAL GEAR SOLID 3: SNAKE EATER.
By 18, I finally had the funds to advance my sneaking w/ a PS3 and a copy of METAL GEAR SOLID 4: GUNS OF THE PATRIOTS.
Shortly thereafter, I would return to killing aliens w/ RESISTANCE: FALL OF MAN.
Since my 19th birthday, my gaming exploits have consisted of killing more aliens in RESISTANCE 2, KILLZONE 2, and DEAD SPACE, killing Russian dudes in BATTLEFIELD: BAD COMPANY and CALL OF DUTY 4: MODERN WARFARE, killing other mechs in ARMORED CORE 4, killing rogue treasure hunters in UNCHARTED: DRAKE'S FORTUNE, and jumping around in LITTLEBIGPLANET and UNCHARTED.
