My name is Anthony, some people call my Tony but most of my online friends call me Born.
I got the handle Born Invincible from a old ****c kung fu flick. Google "Born Invincible" and get the details. It's a damn good movie. I liked the theme and the main character who just happened to be born invincible. I started using it back in 2001 i think and it just kinda stuck.
I am a Soldier in the US Army. I am married and have two daughters. My wife is also a Soldier and we are currently both deployed in Iraq.
I enjoy watching sports, particularly baseball. I was born in San Diego, so naturally I am a Padres fan. I collect baseball cards and consider it to be my most serious hobby. I also like to hunt when I get a chance and I am trying to extend my gun collection.
Gaming. More than a hobby.
When it comes to me and gaming I believe for me it is more than just a hobby. I am serious about gaming and how I go about it. I try, when I can, to take time off for work when a new game comes out that I plan on buying. Usually just a day or so. I also try to get my daughter involved in video games too. She plays with my old DS and has a few games herself. Hopefully gaming will bring her joy as it has to me for so many years.
For the most part I enjoy strategy and stealth type games, RPGs, platformers and the occasional sports game. I have never been a big sports game guy but after discovering how wonderful MLB 06 The Show was... I have been hooked. I am currently in my 18th season as the character I created. He is headed for the HOF.
My favorite game is Metal Gear Solid for Playstation. I am a huge fan of the series and I am eagerly waiting for the newest installment. The Legend of Zelda - The Ocarina of Time is a close second.
My official job title in the military is Intelligence Analyst. Sounds cool but in truth it can be a bit redundant. It has its moments and I do enjoy it but its definitely not my dream job. I would much rather be doing something with computers and digital graphics. After this tour of duty me and my wife will probably get out of the military and persue other things as civilians.
I enjoy being in the military but recently, due to the war and other things, I have come to the conclusion that perhaps I should get to moving onto other things. I dont personally think this war was waged under the most honorable reasons and would rather not be apart of it anymore. I will do my duty respectfully while I am in but when I am done... I am done.
With that being said.. I believe that is all for now.
Peace -
