Charizarzar Posted June 10, 2023 Share Posted June 10, 2023 (edited) Hello and welcome back to Member Interviews! Our next interviewee is @SnowxSakura! Snow good scrolling past, send some questions in to find out more about him! Questions can be submitted starting now until June 21st, 2023. Chris has provided the community with a snippet to help come up with questions. About Me Hey everyone, my name is Chris, I am 35 years old. I was born and raised in Nashville, Tennessee. I got into gaming at around 3 years old playing my dad's atari 2600, and NES. My first console I got as a kid was a super nintendo, with super mario world, and mario paint. The fly swat mini-game on mario paint was hours upon hours of fun with my sister growing up. I started collecting different systems as I got older, to really appreciate the vastly different libraries, or lack thereof each one had to offer. I got my first playstation system in 1997 with Crash Bandicoot, Twisted Metal, and NFL Gameday. Some other titles that really stood out to me on the PS1 were Tony Hawk's Pro Skater, the FF series, Star Ocean 2, and Lunar 1 and 2. I have mostly stayed with playstation as the main system since, barring the 360 era. I ended up picking that system instead, due to the cost of the PS3, and that Star Ocean 4 was announced as an exclusive at the time. I started trophy hunting as a continuation from hunting achievements on xbox when I moved to the ps3 in 2010, with my first platinum being Mass Effect 2. There are quite a few series that are incredibly time consuming that I enjoy working on. Earth Defense Force (EDF!! EDF!!) is one of the time consuming platinums I've been working on with a friend. Another one of them is the Persona franchise, with all the various genres it covers, the platinums can be easy or very difficult. I don't really trophy hunt nowadays and keep my list to myself When it comes to genres, I absolutely love JRPGs, Hack n Slash, Beat em Ups, Shooters, Souls-likes, and Platformers. I don't like playing multiplayer games much, and mostly prefer single player and co-op titles. ________________________ Interview setup The setup for all PSNP interviews will be as follows: After the new interviewee have been revealed, the PSNP community will have 10 days to ask their questions. While the community is coming up with questions, the interviewee has the time to work on the 17 standard questions After those 10 days, those questions, along with the standard questions, will be sent to the interviewee. The interviewee will have another 7 days to answer as many of the questions as they want. Once the interviewee has finished answering the questions, I will post the whole interview in a new thread. How to be an interviewee As we've had a lot of interest, new applications are temporarily closed, but I'll open the interview signup thread back up after more names have been cleared. ________________________ List of questions Standard Questions How did you come up with your PSN name?
