Hello, my name is Harry, and I am an avid gamer who likes to waste time doing nothing on the internet, playing video games and reading an assortment of graphic novels, I make that distinction because I am NOT referring to Marvel or DC, from across the globe.

I am a big fighting game fan, enjoying Guilty Gear, Street Fighter, Soul Calibur and the like, but Smash take the cake for me due to it's uniqueness. A surprisingly technical party fighter, with a large playable roster. The thing that does it though, is the game's speed, even the slow in comparison SSBB is quite fast compared to other fighters in my opinion.

Other games I enjoy playing often fall into the JRPG genre, like Shin Megami Tensei, Golden Sun and Xenoblade Chronicles, but I am not fussy on the genre. The only ones that I "dislike" are FPS' and MOBAs, and that's because of either a lack of variety or a "Pay to Win" nature, but there are titles in those genres that I enjoy. My favourite franchise is, act surprised, LoZ. My favourite installment is Wind Waker, with Majora's Mask a close second, followed by Link Between Worlds.

I enjoy loads of graphic novels, but my favourites tend to be Manga, American or French ones. If you're confused about that last bit, I think that French humor is pretty unique, and something that is somewhat hard to copy. I don't necessarily mean whats being said but how it's said, a great example is my personal favourite, Lewis Trondheim. Everything this man makes just puts a big cheesy smile on my face. My favourite graphic novel being BONE, a lengthy 9 book, 1321 page epic in 55 issues by American graphic novelist Jeff Smith. It's a mix between humor and dark fantasy that really works. It would take too long to explain, just read it, you'll not be disappointed. A close second is the ongoing Mouse Guard by David Peterson. There's three books out, and they're all great. They follow the secret life of mice, who live in medieval like castles and defend themselves from predators using weaponry. "The Mouse Guard" refers to a group who protect the other mice in times of need, such as wars and predatory attacks. The history is huge, and the books have only scratched the surface, and Peterson isn't planning on slowing down any time soon.
