Hi all,
If your new to the 360-HQ website please feel free to post a reply to this topic and let everyone know your here.. lol.. Feel free to post anything you like in this thread.. Im keen to see how large we can make this thread.
Anyway, heres a little about myself:
My name is Kent and Im a Xbox 360 Gamer with a long history in the gaming industry which initially began back on the good old C64 (commodore 64) where we produced our own original games including, code, graphics and music.
I have also owned nearly every single pc and console including: Atari 2600, c64, Amiga, Genesis/Megadrive, Apple IIe (lol), Nintendo, Super NES, PS1, Dreamcast, Xbox 1 and Xbox 360. And i still have them all here (somewhere).
Ive always done mods on my consoles whether it be case mods or actual software mods in one way or another.
The reason 360-HQ was built was to expand on our already huge family from the Xbox 1 website http://www.xbox-hq.com ready for the next gen of gaming and modding. The 360-Hq site is all about gaming and everything xbox 360 including cheats, achievements, trailers, guides, reviews, news, case mods, drive replacements etc etc (i could go on).
Ive been in the press for gaming hardware and software for many years now and also still create the odd flash games to give away.. Check out http://flashgames.xbox-hq.com flashgames area for my games..

All,
My gaming started back in the 70's at the local arcades. The first RPG I was exposed to was on a Wang Workstation called a 2110. It was completely text based but it had me seeing a world in my mind.
For consoles, I played friends commodore and something else I fail to remember until I got my first Atari at about age 8 or 9, I think. I was hooked from then on.
I did enjoy many a system. I had all most all USA released systems at one point or another. Noteworthy is the fact that I have safely stored all the Sega systems I have owned from Sega 1000 to the Dreamcast. Was once a Sega fan boy to the extreme, however, I did have and play Nintendo and Sony systems too. Never did like the Playstation because it looked like doo doo compared to the Saturn and Dreamcast.
I love technology and nature. A strange combo but it works great things when it comes to saving energy and saving our earth environment. I am part of a home and building energy performance service in my home state of New Hampshire, US. I also do and will continue to aim to utilize only energy efficient equipment in the framework of my web hosting company as it grows to help reduce it carbon footprint.
Let's here about you ... Bye!

Names Dean, and I'm an alcoholic, wife beating, redneck, racist, polygamist.
Oh probably should keep that to myself eh.........
Started out on the Nintendo, moved to the early days of pc gaming, Wolfenstien, Doom. Then made my way thru the consoles, went back to the pc pretty heavy. But the pc updates got to expensive so here I am with a 360.
Mostly into Fps's. Played all genre's but I started with Fps's, and will always prefer them over others.

Hello all. I'm Don and I live in Pennsylvania. I started gaming in the early 80's with the Atari 2600 and of course going to arcades. I then saved up and bought myself a Nintendo Entertainment System. After I had that for a while, I got a Sega Master System. I then bought a Sega Genesis. I still love playing genesis games every once in a while. I then bought a Sega Saturn and PlayStation. I got rid of the Saturn though after one week. Although I liked playing Sega Rally on it. After it was out for a few years I bought a PS2 and played the hell out of it. When I finally got bored of it and gaming in general it just collected dust on our entertainment center. Then everyone started talking to me about getting the 360. I still wasn't into gaming that much, but people I worked with wanted me to get one to play games online. So in August I broke down and got one. I bought Madden 08, Marvel Ultimate alliance and Rainbow Six Vegas. I am hooked on vegas. it is awesome.
So, I am married and was getting ready to teach my wife to play Vegas until I had some dvd drive failure. That's pretty much it, I guess.
