Sup Guys. Thought I'd give y'all an introduction to me since we're gonna be playing Destiny together!
Names Nicolo. I'm a first year grad student at George Mason University near DC. Been gaming since the SNES days (Super Mario RPG anyone?). I've been playing shooters since the first CoD and got really into competitive gaming when Halo 2 came out. I went to a few MLG pro circuit events and even had a brief stint in the top 16 of the online pro circuit with the original Gears of War. After that I became less competitive as I started figuring out what I wanted to do in life. My two favorite genres are RPGs and FPS. However RPGs on PC are way better so I'm in the process of building a sexy new gaming rig for those kinds of games. I plan on running a hunter in Destiny because that PvP Golden Gun makes me feel like I'm in a James Bond movie.
I've played a lot of MMOs too, so I'm really excited about the raids. I played SWtOR at launch and my guild was the first on the servers to complete all the raids on the nightmare difficulties, so I love PvE as well. My favorite game series is Kingdom Hearts followed by the Witcher (the books are dope too). Huge fantasy nerd including The Wither, Song of Fire and Ice, LoTR, The Hobbit, Silmarillion, Harry Potter, etc.
Feel free to add me on PSN, MAFIAxMaverick! I'm planning on picking up PvZ Garden Warfare when it launches and play that until I get undoubtedly smothered by my grad school workload. Would love to get to know you all!
Cheers,
Maverick

Hi Maverick, I just finished grad school! I also got heavily into competitive gaming in Halo 2, but I didn't make it quite so far in the MLG circuit. I'm about to start my next job, so maybe our free time will match up and we can get some raiding and competitive games in. I'm probably going to hold-off on getting any more games until Destiny comes out, but I look forward to playing with you soon.

Hey Nicolo, Pleasure to meet you, welcome to the clan! What are you studying at GMU? Any particular RPGs that you are looking to play on PC? If you haven't played the Mass Effect trilogy, I highly recommend them! Can't wait to catch you around! Keno (Kyle)
