The Gamer in Felicia Day!

Now here's a lady who can easily be every gamer-boy's dream-come-true. Felicia Day, ladies and gentlemen: she's cute, she's funny, and most importantly, SHE PLAYS GAMES!

Seriously.

In a recent episode of Mahalo Daily with Veronica Belmont, we get treated to an interview with Felicia Day and The Guild co-star Sandeep Parikh. Of course, they talk about the online comedy series- what it's about, how they came up with the idea for it, and what's in store for The Guild in the immediate future.

Somewhere along the conversation, Felicia admits to being a gamer all her life- getting into PC games as early as 6 or 7 years old, and rattled off quite a few of the games I also played back then- more notably, the Sierra series of adventure games: King's Quest, Space Quest and Leisure Suit Larry!

Woohoo! Man, I loved those games! And that was back when games came in antiquated 5-1/4" diskettes. Diskettes, man!

She also mentioned the Ultima series, a bad Diablo addiction in college, and as we all know now from The Guild official website, a two-year addiction to World of Warcraft!

Anyway, you can check the rest of the interview on YouTube, or right here, as I have conveniently provided for your viewing pleasure.



Check her out on her very own website, right here- where you could check out more pics (like the one above), and the kind of work she's done so far. Smart little lady has even done some branding and is doing a great job marketing herself online. Heck, she's even designed the website herself! Well done, Felicia :)

If you haven't seen it yet, go check out The Guild- it's a hilarious online comedy series which you can check out on the show's channel on YouTube, or on this great comedy site- Effinfunny.com. I've also provided some linkage (to all eight webisodes thus far) right here:
Read more about The Guild as I feature the rest of the other episodes on this blog, "Renzie On Gaming". In the meantime, you can check out their official website for lots of great insider stuff and exclusive video, or you could check them out on Facebook and MySpace.

'Til next episode! Cheers, everyone!
