My oldest photos were from 2004 for Everquest II when it came out.

This was me at a guild meeting with a guy I met in game looking like a dumb happy frog! Those were the days. Man I loved that game. No MMO ever quite felt the same.

This was another really early screenshot from 2005 for the Matrix Online. I was a captain of a ship that was in the largest Machine Faction guild on the server. This was during a meeting in one of the many huge skyrises where we talked about our orders from the GM Agent and trying to unravel what our next move was. This was right around when Morpheus was seen running around and we had to find a way to stop him from ruining the treaty with the humans and machines.

Fun times!

My oldest screen shot was taken in 1988. It was of Grand Prix for the Atari 2600, as Nintendo Power just came out and wanted pics of high scores.

Of course they weren't interested in anything that wasn't Nintendo so it wasn't printed, but I still remember wasting an entire roll of film trying to capture the screen while it wasn't flickering. And of course you couldn't see the picture you just took, so you had to keep taking pictures and wish for the best.

That is similar to mine. My first screen shot was of Metal Gear NES. I took the picture to send to Nintendo Power... the problem was it was a bit late. I took the picture after how to beat the game (secret door?) was posted in the Nes help section. Needless to say it was never posted.

I had already played several games, but I stretched this one game out to a little over 6 hours before I went and beat the snot out of the end boss. I feel like a bus ran me over since I was up so late, but oh well. :lol:

Reminds me of your Every Extend Extra marathon years ago on 360.

I really want to make some time for RoR. We'll have to co-op sometime, blah blah blah. :P

Heh yeah, I thought of that too. Same sort of circumstance, got in the zone with a good run and just kept going until I reached a point I really needed some sleep before work the next day. I really need to make these things start earlier on a weekend. :lol:

Well you ping me for some coop sir. :)

I am nerding out a bit. Just unlocked the light saber in Disney Infinity 2.0 and the first thing I did was put it in Captain America's hands.

That's very picturesque. My experience with STO was a screen that mostly looked like this:
