Console gaming
Crowley started gaming when realized that Atari games were more fun than playing in a sandbox. Crowley began his gaming career as most gamers did, cutting his teeth on games like Asteroids and Pit Fall. Once the Nintendo was released Crowley’s world was forever changed. Games like Legend of Zelda and Final Fantasy started Crowley on his path towards gaming greatness (well, at least in his own mind). Crowley has owned every major gaming console system since. Now with a PS3, Xbox360, and a Wii at his disposal Crowley enjoys a wide variety of games including FPS’s, RPG’s, and TPS’s (third-person shooters).
PC gaming
Crowley may have started gaming on a console but he soon realized how much fun PC Gaming was. The first MMO that Crowley participated in was Final Fantasy Online. Crowley created and led the Sacred Pact linkshell (guild) for 5+ years. Crowley was also a part of The Empire of SWATH supergroup (guild) on City of Heroes/Villains. Crowley also co-founded the fleet Section 31 in Star Trek Online. Crowley has played and participated in guilds on games such as World of Warcraft and Champions Online. Crowley also enjoys RTS games such as the Civilization series and Total War: Shogun 2.

Commander Batty is a kind, fun-loving guy who gets the most enjoyment out of player vs. player combat. There's just something about squashing another player like a bug in a (usually) fair fight to get the endorphins pumping.

Ryan started gaming as soon as he could hold a controller in his hands. With games ranging from Duck Hunt all the way up to Call of Duty: Black Ops…he has always been an avid fan of shooter games. So much so, that even though he doesn’t own, or play on the Xbox, he can kick most people’s a$$ at Halo. He co-founded the Black Label Clan on the PS3 which has a very successful run during the height of Resistance: Fall of Man and both Modern Warfare games. He is currently a member of Murders and Acquisitions in which he has also held leadership positions.
PC gaming
While FPS games are Ryan’s first passion he also loves MMOs and RTS games. Ryan co-founded the Empire of SWATH supergroup on City of Heroes/Villains which had moderate success on the Justice Server. Ryan also co-founded The Section 31 Fleet in Star Trek Online. He also enjoys The Command and Conquer and Age of Empires’ series.
