first played cs 1.3, pubbed and lanned with my cousin and uncle. Stopped until Halo PC came out, started playing competitively.
Picked up Half-Life 2, with CS Source, and fell in love again. Been playing Source competitively since Feb. 2005, frequently play at Area 51 LAN center in Londonderry, NH and soon to be Project Circuit LAN center in Worcester, Mas.
