Favorite Hobby:
Riding my motorcycle, particularly long-range to meet friends for destination vacations.

Favorite part of Halo:
The thrill of spearheading man-kinds last attempt to survive complete extinction. This also holds true for my love of the TV-show Battlestar Galactica.

Favorite Halo:
Halo 2. Why? I have such fond memories of LAN parties and Xbox Live. Spending hours glitching and getting out of maps with friends. Online play was fresh and new; was a great way to connect with friends before cell phones were widely used.

Other than Halo? Battlefield 4 is high on the list. Runescape has a special place in my heart. I go back to visit sometimes.
