Although never really the kind of girl who played dollies or dress-up (unless you count playing Doctors and Nurses with the boys behind the cafeteria), the moment my dad brought home a super-shiny gorgeous NES for my brothers and I, I was hooked. While other girls were falling in love with teenage pop sensations, I was falling in love with gaming. I got lost in Hyrule from the Legend of Zelda. I kicked ass in Street Fighter. I had inappropriate dreams about Snake from Metal Gear Solid, became obsessed with the gorgeously grim environments of Silent Hill and am still utterly addicted to Guitar Hero. I've grown up with a particular penchant for survival horror, but I'll turn my hand to pretty much anything that doesn't involve pink and fluffy things. (I'm a girl, but not that much of one.) Whilst I love music, video games, books and all things geek, my true indulgences include Ben & Jerrys ice-cream (Cookie Dough or Dublin Mudslide, please), strong tea (made in a pot and not in the mug, thank you), gin (with tonic), chocolate (any way it's given), doctors (naked), talking too much, complaining and swearing profusely. I am a natural blonde, a Diet Coke junkie and kind of NSFW. When I'm not here, I'm either playing games or writing about them at GGSGamer or Silenthillheaven.com. XB/PSN ID: Vixxiie
