Honestly, we've spent probably a total of nine hours, off and on, talking about Tekken. If you can go that long talking about one series of video games, I think that counts.

And I forgot to add in Godsmack. -shrugs-

I'd like to reiterate that my fanboy status in regards to Combrig is total, undying, and tinged with emotions that words cannot express.

I just posted a short message on SteelNavy.com asking for info on a paint scheme, they E-mailed me some outstanding photos of that particular ship's Builder's Model from the Musee de la Marine Paris for referance, and that within 5 minutes of the message going up.

(edit)Just so we're clear, I was asking a message noard at large for info, and the company support responded, it's not like I'm overjoyed at asking them for info and getting it.

I love you Sarah!

I would...but that pales in some of the levels of absurdity I do for say for most 2-D fighting games...but on that tthought, yeah I would definitly fit fanboy given I could talk for even more hours about the Tekken series.

Dooey Jo · Post by **Dooey Jo** » 2004-12-28 10:52am

Hmm... lessee...

- Star Wars
Well, I've loved Star Wars since the first time I saw it, and I have no idea when that was. I own the whole Young Jedi Knigths series (by KJA

and someone else) and liked it when I was younger (I also had something of a crush on Tenel-Ka

). And last year I did a paper TIE Fighter for the christmas tree. I think that qualifies me as a fanboy. Yeah, I've made two lightsabre props too... And a fan film of sorts is in the works...

- Legend of Zelda
Ocarina of Time. That was when I became a real fanboy, I guess. For reasons not to mentioned here it may or may not have been because of a certain farm girl... Oh yeah, this year I made a paper Triforce for the christmas tree

- Castlevania
Castlevania is the coolest game series ever, if only for the music! Way up there with Zelda. And let's not forget Alucard, whose coolness is not to be underestimated. The fact that I never got to play through Symphony of the Night still bugs me!

- Vampires (especially Dracula)
Probably a side effect from playing too many Castlevania games too much, and at the same time watching Dracula movies. Suddenly I found them the coolest beings imaginable. That passed after a few years but vampires still fascinates me (not that I think they are real or anything...). So nowadays I'm probably just a fan.

- The Tolkien-verse
It's mostly the sheer amount of detail put into it I like, and especially in the languages. Probably why I created my own fictional language. But I wouldn't say I'm a real fanboy. I don't go around talking Elvish and stuff...

And this week's extra special guest target for fanboyism:
- Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door
This game is just so damn cool and funny.
