What is your gamertag and the reason for choosing it?
My gamertag is guera612. My reason for choosing this Gamertag…well I think it isn’t original but “guera” was my nickname throughout my whole life, it was usually said from people that love me dearly! The “612”, yep, that’s my birth date.
What is your favourite genre/s of game and why?
My favorite genres would mainly be FPS, MOBA, or RPG. I always like a challenge and I’ve always been a competitive person, so I always strive for the win! RPGs are awesome because I get so engaged with the quests, there is always something to do.
What is your favourite game so far? (Doesn’t need to be an Xbox title!)
So far, I’ve been addicted to playing Smite, this has been my go to game! It’s really fun when you have a good team on your side!
What is your most memorable gaming moment?
My most memorable gaming moment would have to be when I completed the Call of Duty Zombies Moon Easter Egg. This has to be one of the hardest things to complete in my opinion.
Which achievement has been the most frustrating to obtain? How long did it take you?
The most frustrating achievement was the Big Bang Theory from Call of Duty Black Ops. It took me two whole days to get it!
What is your gaming guilty pleasure?
My gaming guilty pleasure would have to be playing Final Fantasy 8, this is the game I always go back to and never get tired of playing, considering that I have to go back to my PlayStation 2 to play it.
If you could pick a video game character, who would you be and why?
If I could be a video game character, I would be Lara Croft, because she is a bad ass and she knows how to fight and she is always about adventure.
If you could pick a location, from any game, to visit, where would it be and why?
The place that I would love to visit would be City of Columbia from Bioshock Infinite. When I first played the game I fell in love with the vibrant graphics and also I like the old school music to go with it.
Finally, where do you see gaming heading in the next decade?
I think a new improved form of virtual reality will be the next major thing, we are coming up with so much new advances in technology, like the Holo lens, and the Oculus Rift, I can’t wait to see what the developers will do next!
