Love me some games. I have even made some – check ’em out on the Omega Squid Studios website!
Anywho, here’s what I like to play…when I find the time to do so!
Platforms
Basically anything. I have an ever-growing video game collection, so I tend to get a system and some peripherals then amass games over time when I find decent deals.
- PC – Steam kicks butt, hands down\
- Tabletop – it’s hard finding people to play, but I love Settlers of Catan, Monopoly, Axis & Allies, RISK
- iPhone – always with me!
- Android tablet
- Nintendo handhelds – currently a new 3DS XL, but I’ve owned them all (except Game Boy Advance micro)
- Xbox 360
- PS3 (got a great deal on a used one)
- Wii U (got it with a bunch of games for a steal on ebay, summer ’14)
- Xbox One X (Jan 2018)
- Nintendo Switch (April 2019)
Genres
- RTS games
- Fighting games (Super Street Fighter II and Smash Bros series are really the only two I enjoy)
- Turn based strategy
- X4 games
- FPS
- Open world
- Casual
Some of my all time favorites

What I’ve been playing lately (updated July ’19)
A backlog from Hell on all platforms (I really need to sit down and play through the last 2 pokemon Gens on 3DS…)
Apex Legends, Fallout 76, Battlefront 2, Battlefield 1, occasionally PUBG when I can stand it on my Xbox One X (hail glorious 4K)
Stardew Valley, Civ VI, FTL on my iPad Pro
BoTW, Pokemon on the Switch
If you are friends with me on steam, you’ll get a good gist of my playing habits when I actually do get some free time.
