I tend to like unique games that stretch and define genres. If you are releasing sequel #3 or #4 in your game series, you'd better have added some real innovation along the way, or I'm going to be bored. Though for some reason, I'll still keep coming back to the first two games in the series, even decades later. If you're just copying game devs that came before you, I probably won't even look at your stuff.

Good, solid gameplay is much more important to me than the latest graphics technology, though if you want to make your game pretty I'm sure my rig can handle it.

I've been around since pretty much the beginning of video games, in fact I wore through two Atari 2600 consoles in my youth.

Speaking of consoles, I've pretty much given them up. 99% of my gaming happens on the PC these days, both on and off Steam. It's nothing personal against consoles; it's just hard to justify the $expense these days when all it gets me is access to a few platform exclusive titles.

I tend to game in bursts. I'll focus on my work for weeks at a time, then I'll come here for a couple of weeks to unwind.
