| About myself: | My name is Guilherme Chirinéa, but you can call me Gui (as in Guinness). I'm 28 years old and I'm a Psychology professor at two local colleges. I used to be in an indie rock band, in which I played bass guitar and did some vocals. You can hear us (them) here and here.
My first console was, as for many other boys in Brazil, an Atari 2600. My first computer was a TK-85 (a Sinclair ZX81 clone), bought a couple of years after the Atari. I still own both of them. From the 80's up to 1995, I was primarily a console gamer (from the Atari 2600 to a NES clone and then to the Mega Drive). Things changed when I bought my fist PC in 1995, a then incredibly new Pentium 75MHz with 8MB of RAM. From then on, I endured PC gaming avidly. In 1999, when I first got in touch with the internet, I've acquired the bad habits of emulation and abandonware. I'm one of those gamers who can see beauty in 8-bit graphics.
MobyGames was a natural consequence of my oldies-craving disease. I started contributing to the site late in 2002 (in a shy way), despite of being around earlier. I just became really addicted to contributing after finishing the university (an idle mind is a devil's workshop), and from then on I've been a MobyZombie.
If things continue the way they are now, my epitaph will probably read:
