Those who don't see the truth cos they're blind are best defined as those who got left behind!

About Me

Hi I'm Stu (or Ninjitstu to some). I'm a 25yr old music loving, football mad, hardcore gamer from South Shields in the North-East of England.I've played video games since the days of coloured circles eating dots. Having grown up at the time when video games became mainstream I am a hardcore gamer at heart.

My Interests

I have my own gaming blog - Ninjitstu: Views of a Gaming Ninja @ http://ninjitstu.wordpress.comNinjitstu website - work will commence soon!

I'd like to meet:

I play under the alias 'Ninjitstu' across a variety of games. Online gaming kicked off for me with Team Fortress Classic (TFC for short) on the PC. Back then I went under the name of Armageddon; a name which saw me through SOCOM 1 and 2 (PS2), Ghost Recon 2 (Xbox), Pro Evolution Soccer and beyond. The video gaming industry has been a passion for me in more than just playing. I've worked as a QA Tester on a PS2 title and wrote my own reviews for a webzine a while back. Currently I attend and compete in tourneys around the UK in its ever growing Professional scene.
