Well I joined here almost a year ago (my 'anniversary' a week today), yet have hardly posted since (take note of the single digit post count). However I have plans to be much more active on the forums now, especially considering I am now choosing OcUK as my dedicated etailer for computer products.
Little background information:
My first name is Lewis, currently aged 17, and reside in the North West area of England.
My main hobbies include gaming, gaming, and eating take away food. That pretty much sums me up. Nothing (for me) quite beats having a kebab on the weekend with a few of my mates.
My favourite genre of music is generally defined as the umbrella term 'extreme metal'. My favourite band of all time is Whitechapel, whom I have seen live and hope to do so a lot more in the future. Other bands I like are The Acacia Strain, Straight Line Stitch, Bring Me The Horizon, The Devil Wears Prada, Alesana, Breaking Benjamin, Atreyu, Suicide Silence and many many more.
Oh yeah and I have a baby niece, she's cute.
I currently attend college, studying A-levels with the hopes to progress onto university to study video game design, with me already receiving a conditional offer from one of my selected universities.
Gaming is really an important part of my life, having dedicated thousands of hours to moving pixels on my screen.
At first I was a console gamer, before converting to PC gaming (full time if you will), with my first major gaming computer (which is in use right now) consisting of:
Amd Phenom II X2 560 BE
XFX Ati Radeon HD 5770
Asus M4N68T
Generic 500W PSU
Xigmatec Asgard
I will be upgrading to an Asus HD 6950 and Corsair Builder Series 600W PSU as a christmas gift, courtesy of OcUK. Oh yeah, and I also got Battlefield 3 and Deus Ex for free with the order, so massive thanks OcUK, you guys are awesome!
Oh yeah, I also used to play RuneScape a lot. I have a lot of gameplay time. Good game regardless of what people say, best part about it was the interaction with a lot of my school friends before they ventured off into other games.
I played WoW for a while, before getting bored of grinding for gear, so I haven't even progressed onto Cataclysm heroics yet. I also bought Rift, but I didn't even manage to get a single character to level 50, as I only played for the 30 day free game time with purchase. I really should get back into Rift, I heard the snow areas are some of the most beatiful areas available in MMO gaming.
I do indeed have a Steam profile, link here:
http://steamcommunity.com/id/valkynaz
My general online alias is valkynaz, or a variation of it. This comes from my love for Oblivion, with the valkynaz being the top ranks in the Dremora race, being princes, army guards, and even personal guards of Mehrunes Dagon.
I don't really have a favourite game at the moment
I also have an Xbox 360, the Reach edition to be specific, it's awesome. So I also have an Xbox Live account:

I played a lot of Halo 3 when it was fun, i.e. when you didn't need to buy DLC to play Team Swat.
Bought Modern Warfare free for a mere £26, so that's good fun with my friends online, good mindless fun with whiney kids. And noobtubers.
You can add me on either if you wish, and maybe we can play a few games of whatever
.
At the moment I am going to be clearing through my backlog of purchased games, as there is many games I have not yet even downloaded and launched in my steam library, which seems a huge waste. So I'm hoping to clear through a lot of them by the time christmas day arrives so that I can jam that 6950 into my system and enjoy Deus Ex on full whack.
I also like to waffle on a lot and type whatever comes to mind, have you guessed?
