Megaburn reporting for duty.

I graduated HS before computers and cell phones were available. My 1^st video game system was an Intellivision. The Radio Shack TS-80 was the only available personal computer running about $1600 for a 256kb system (not a misprint) so it wasn’t really an option for my parents to purchase for me because of “cost” although if I remember you could purchase a 384kb expansion module for an additional $500 and it came with a couple games like Pong and Asteroid Blaster on a monochrome display. Never got one. Sad

Jump ahead to 1998.

Started out playing first person shooters as “Megaburn” on my first IBM Windows95 based system in 1998 when Delta Force 1 was released and played pretty much the entire Novalogic series. (I've still got the whole set of disks). Over the Delta Force years (1998-2005) I was on a couple teams (nothing to hide) > 10^th SOG and TNT. After 2005 have been freelance with no ties playing all kinds of games like MechWarrior, Call of Duty, Battlefield, Americas Army, ARMA, XPlane and a few other flight sims. I do have and fly XPlane 11 every now and then. Started playing War Thunder in 2013 and that’s pretty much all I play now.

Personal Life:

Retired Military, Married 30+ years. Have lived in 7 different states. Have 5 Brahma Hens and my cute little Chinese Crested “Sweet Pea”. Got to ride in a B17G two year’s back which was the thrill of a lifetime.

Hobbies:

Playing War Thunder, HAM operator, riding my Goldwing Trike and finding videos for my YouTube channel Playlist, “The Best of Military Lip Dub / Lip Sync / Parody” Playlist.

Well that’s me in a nutshell. See you in War Thunder.
