Paul Crowley's Bio
Spilling My Guts
Since Randy Sluganski decided, for reasons known only to himself, to afford me the opportunity of writing a column for JA+, you, the readers, have a right to see just what sorts of games I have played since the spring of 2001, when I began (after swearing that I would never get involved in all that silly computer game crap) with realMYST. I began compiling the list for my own amusement after I had played about fifteen games and attempted to come up with a color-coded system which went beyond the usual broad gaming categorizations (whether this was a sign of serious mental problems I cannot judge for myself). Anyway, herewith the list, along with my sadly anal-retentive attempt at classification:
