The Beginning
It was the year 1996. The year that changed my life forever. My father bought me PlayStation 1 with some games. I don't remember exactly how many games he got, but I sure remember two of them that I played the most - Rayman 1 and Crash Bandicoot. To this very day, those franchises (with Pac-Man as well) are sharing number 1 spot on top 10 best video game franchises. I remember finding Rayman 1 a lot hard but thas what made it more interesting to play. I also remember that I tried Rayman 1 on my Windows 95 computer when I got it on some compilation disc for PC, but I did not like that version because I found controlls hard due to not being used to play on keyboard.
Later years
Rayman was of course not the only series I played so I would not call myself real Rayman fan during those times. I mean, I liked his currently released games but I also remember liking Mario, Sonic, Pac-Man, Crash, Spyro, Gex, Croc, Mega Man, Bomberman and other classics. In 2003, Rayman 3: Hoodlum Havoc was released and I remember I was not a big fan of that game unlike previous games, so I moved on playing games from other franchises that I liked (mainly Crash Bandicoot). In 2006, a trailer for Rayman Raving Rabbids (cancelled prototype) was shown and game looked very interesting. I decided to get the game when it hit the shelves. When game got released, it did not turned out to be how I expected it. It was an ok game but it looked nothing like the game shown on trailer. I beat the game and just went back playing other games I also liked. Raving Rabbids sequels did not interest me at all, and I completely forgot about the series and stopped caring for it at one point completely since I started to find mini games really boring.
2011-Present
Since from all games I played Crash Bandicoot was currently the one I played most, I decided to join on YouTube and upload Crash Bandicoot Let's Plays. But I soon realized the truth about the franchise and fanbase. Surrounded by constan fights on YouTube about silliest things such as Crash's newest character design, it was clear for me why was there no new Crash game on consoles since 2008. I decided to stay away from fanbase and just upload stuff on YouTube for fun. I did met some good Crash fans on YouTube as well who liked both new and old games in series. Year later, I decided to give Crash Mania a shot and join formus, however, I got permanent ban because I asked for link of Japanese Crash Pachislot machine website (the irony is that after other people asked as well, the person finally gave link, but why was I banned I have no idea). After PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale was released and Crash was not in the game, I gave up on series, fanbase and I also got tired of his games a bit (That does not mean that I would not buy new Crash game if they ever make it). It was clear to me that I need to find some other series besides Mario and Sonic that is from Classic times to play, and I did! Rayman Origins was the game I was searching for. It had really good art style and I liked the gameplay very much. It reminded me of Rayman and how much I enjoyed Rayman 1 on PS1 back in 1996. From 2012 I became Rayman fan for real, and I was playing Rayman games the most. I also found Haruka's YouTube channel with awesome Rayman Walkthrough's that had really good quality and gameplay. The Walkthrough that I watched the most was Japanese Rayman Revolution one since I am a fan of Japanese culture and I do go to Japan when I have money to do it. I really wanted to get Japanese Rayman Revolution version and I searched everyware, but no luck. I was going on SNESorama forums and other gaming forums and after 1 year of searching, still nothing. In 2013, I decided to ask Haruka where did she get the game and can she share ISO of the game. Because of slow internet and game's big size, she was not able to upload ISO, but she told me she got the ISO on Rayman Pirate-Community and that I should ask there. When I was registring, I had no idea that I will like that that much as much as I do now. I was planning to just obtain Rayman Revolution Japanese ISO and then leave the forums since I didn't think I wanted to be a part of some community. However, that is not what happened. Soon after joining, I found Rayman Pirate-Community to be an amazing place with a lot of great people and Rayman fans. I have to say I never seen fanbase like that before. Soon I found copy of Japanese Rayman Revolution on eBay and I bought it, however I couldn't leave Rayman Pirate-Community It was too awesome. Right now, I am trying to be active as much as possible, and I have a really good time there. Thanks to Haruka, I found a really great place with really great people. Long live RPC!
Personality
I am a person who is always ready to help if help is needed, and I like hanging out on internet a lot. I am always trying my best to be polite to people, and I dislike people who are not polite. I sometimes tend to be "stuck in a past" maybe too much but I am trying not to. Retro gaming is something I like very much, and I usually play Retro games. I am a bit shy to voice chat with people but I am still willing to do it if it is needed for commentary or some recording or if a person is a really good friend of mine. I am also a big fan of Japanese culture, Japanese movies, uniforms and weapons, and I would like to know their language better. I am honest person, and I would never insult or attack someone first.

Trivia
- I value my username very much to the point that it is a part of my real life signature (every time I have to sign some document, I put OCG at the end)
- During school days, kids and teachers were questioning the meaning of OCG and they never guessed what it was.
- Since by nationality I am Montenegrian (my father was born in Montenegro and I have their citizenship despite not living there, although I do have my own apartment there as well) and on their language, the country name is "Crna Gora" (when you translate it it means Black Mountain), many people falsely thought that letters C&G in my nickname have to do something with Montenegro
- Ever since I came up with OCG username, I never wrote my name on any test I ever did. Instead I only wrote "OCG". Some teachers did not really like that but I honestly did not care.
