Games I Play

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

  • Age of Empires 2 + Conquerors + Forgotten Empires Expansions.(Picked up the remastered AoE2HD during the steam summer sale ’14)
  • Animal Crossing (all versions)
  • Civilization 5 (all DLC/expansions)
  • Fallout 3
  • Fallout New Vegas
  • Pokemon (handhelds, GBC through 3DS. Need to buy the console games for my collection)
  • Chibi-Robo
  • Team Fortress 2
  • Card Wars (Adventure Time, globbing awesome)
  • Plants Vs Zombies
  • Plants Vs Zombies 2
  • PvZ Garden Warfare (hilarious)
  • Call of Duty: World at War
  • Tom Clancy Splinter Cell series (STEALTH!)
  • Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic (AMAZING)
  • Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic II: The Sith Lords
  • Pocket Tanks
  • Harvest Moon (SNES)
  • Radiant Defense (Hexic makes beautiful games)

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.

Biology. Technology. Entertainment. Ginger.
