Favorite Games:
Monster Truck Madness 1&2 of course, I enjoyed playing 90s/2000s DOS/Win32 games like Carmageddon, UT99, Quake 3, Age of Empires 2, Red Alert 2, The whole GTA series from 1 to 5, old wrestling games, Mortal Kombat, KOF from 94 to 13?, SimCity series, Worms, old Need for Speed series, Midtown Madness series, Road Rash, Duke Nukem 3D, Terminal Velocity, Fatal Racing, Motorhead, Railroad Tycoon II and many more obscure '90s DOS&Win32 games.

I'm not a huge fan of modern games, but I do enjoyed playing World of Tanks, Far Cry series and the latest GTA back in the day.

Music:
Rock music, metal, hardcore, punk. I also enjoy ska, folk, 90s hiphop, pop and techno. Cumbia is fine but reggaeton still absolutely fucking sucks.

Ride:
2026 Ford Ranger V6 diesel. I also owned a Nissan frontier back in the day, among other asian cars & trucks. Medium-size trucks all the way!.

Gaming Rig:
Here's my desktop specs in 2013:
AMD FX 8350 4.4GHZ 8GB DDR3 1333 ram on a Gigabyte board (so far so good, had to change it cause my ASUS was giving me BSODs)
AMD RADEON HD 7770 1GB XFX 1440x900 DVI monitor
120GB SSD + 1TB HDD + 160GB HDD
A cheap CM Storm mouse and a bad chinese LED-backlit keyboard.
Using Win7 pro at home and Linux Mint at work.

Now I just go with M5 macbook and a ryzen 5900HX laptop if I ever need to do something in windows (which is rare nowadays).

Cool things:
I own an original copy of 1995 TRI's Terminal Velocity, not bought on ebay or anything, brand new from a forgotten computer store here in Chile (which is really rare) back in 2001 or so. Phin also sent me genuine 1998 MTM2 CD from Canada. (pic)

Why "Kmaster"? are you some sort of employee of K-mart?
Kmaster is short for "KofmortalMASTER", KOF being short of King of Fighters (a fighting game), "mortal" stands for Mortal Kombat, another classic fighting game. MortalMASTER was one of my first nicknames on the internet, then I started playing KOF and added it to my nickname. I quit playing those games but the nickname stayed, and since it was too long and cheesy I shortened it around 2004. Silly huh? I wasn't even good at playing these games but I liked the name.

By the way there's no Kmarts in Chile so I had no idea there was something called "Kmart" back then.

Thanks to my good buddy Slayer for coming up with the name "House of Wicked Awesomeness".
