Sessler currently lives in San Francisco, California,〔(IMDB – Bio – Adam Sessler )〕 with his wife Amber. At SGC 2013, Adam clearly states that his middle name is Michael and not Donovan, even mentioning Wikipedia by name. Some of Sessler's favorite game series' are the ''Halo'' series for its first-person shooter qualities; the Japanese version of ''Rez'' for its Trance Vibrator peripheral; the ''Banjo-Kazooie'', ''Rayman'', ''Ratchet & Clank'', and ''Sly Cooper'' series for their unique platform qualities. In 2010, Sessler stated his top 5 games of the decade were, in order of release, ''Deus Ex'', ''Ratchet & Clank: Up Your Arsenal'', ''Shadow of the Colossus'', ''Fable II'' and ''Uncharted 2''.〔 He also stated that ''Uncharted 2'' was his favorite single player experience of all time. In his review of ''BioShock Infinite'', he states that it is in the "rarefied company of titles like Half-Life 2 and Uncharted 2" insinuating it to be a new personal favorite. Likewise, he has recently expressed affinity towards titles such as "''Gone Home'', ''The Last of Us'' (calling it one of the finest games he's ever played) and ''L.A. Noire'' (referring to it as a "watershed moment in gaming"). Sessler's favorite cabinet video game is ''Ghosts 'n Goblins'', which he has stated on several occasions on older episodes of ''Extended Play'' and ''X-Play''. He stated, "When I was 9 years old I used to scam quarters from my parents and sneak out to this local bowling alley that was so seedy Hubert Selby Jr. would get the creeps there. It smelled like personal abandonment. That's what I think of when I play my favorite game." Sessler has a younger brother, Jonathan, who appeared as Adam 2.0 (in ''X-Plays 2005 April Fool's Day Episode), a "clone" of Adam who claims he's much better-looking than the original Adam with a "special USB port" (a reference to the Game Boy Advance SP succeeding the original Game Boy Advance).〔(IMDB – Jonathan Oliver Sessler )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Adam Sessler」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
