Septumus

Name: Joss Badger
Handle: Septumus
Location: Dallas, TX
Age: 24
Became a Gamer: Late 1998 (When Tribes came out)
Gaming History:
I like to think I became a real gamer when I first started playing the game Tribes. That was when I first was introduced to the idea of multiplayer warfare and guilds actively vying to be the best. Shortly after starting to play Tribes, Everquest came out and since a friend who was in the beta had been raving about it, I picked it up. Ever since then I have been an MMO player first and foremost although FPS games remain solidly in the background.
MMO games played (past the first month and in no order):
- EQ1
- EQ2
- Vanguard
- Star Wars Galaxies
- Dark Ages of Camelot
- World of Warcraft (a short run)
- Lord of the Rings Online
- Pirates of the Burning Sea
- Warhammer: Age of Reckoning
- Tabula Rasa
- A few others that I simply can’t recall at the moment
FPS games played online (for any significant time)
- Starseige: Tribes
- Tribes 2
- Day of Defeat (and Source)
- Counterstrike (and Source)
- Zombie Panic (and Source)
- Team Fortress (and 2)
- Americas Army
- Battlefield 1942
- Battlefield Vietnam
- Battlefield 2
- Battlefield 2142
- CoD
- CoD 2
- CoD 4 (on XBox)
- CoD 5 World at War
- definitely more to this but these are off the top of my head
