As some of you know, I was a [i]very[/i] dweeby 13 year old. Two of the gamess I like to think influenced me in some way would be Guitar Hero and Sims. 

Why? GH helped influence my musical taste, and helped me get used to playing the actual guitar by being used to already shifting my fingers/hands. So when I did learn the guitar, I picked it up relativly easy. Though I havven't played any instrument in four years and need to reteachh myself. 

Sims just gave me something to take my frustrations out on. Instead of killinng actual humans, I settled for the pixleated(?) ones. And still do.

Also, [@Mara], darling. Go to sleep.
