Why Destructoid? To do stuffs and write things.
Ah, gaming... isn't it wonderful? All these console wars, handhelds being almost as good as last get systems, and PCs running games near lifelike with dual video cards and quad cord processors and whatnot. Thus is why we're here, right? A gaming community gathering to share news of games, gamers, and other things revolving around words starting with "G" and ending with "ames". I kinda see myself as a gaming neutral. I love all 3 current gen consoles for different reasons. But... I guess if I did have to choose a side, yes... I would lean toward Sony's shoulder.
My forte of games rolls around in the area of fighting games and RPGs. I can hold my own in puzzles and racers around the fun level of Mario Kart. My fav fighting game? Just in case you haven't heard me preach it enough times, that would be NeoGeo fighting games... namely the King of Fighter Series. That series has multiple RPG-level storylines and does a near flawless job of combining many characters, both main and minor, into one universe without losing any of their personality. Seeing a fighting game do that just makes my brainmeats happy. Now, I'm not knocking down the great Street Fighter, Guilty Gear, or Soul Caliber (for they are all great games as well), but KoF has elements that I think hardly any other fighting game has while still staying a fighting game. You
HAVE to give props to that. Of course, like almost everything Nintendo, Smash Bros is pretty much in a league of its own, and I've given many days of my life playing the hell outta that game with my brothers (unfortunately, I still suck at it).
RPG... I'd have to say that Valkyrie Profile and Star Ocean 2 (both PS1) are the top of my list... Final Fantasy III, VII, & XII sharing that spot light. Final Fantasy is a given so I'll spare you the boring descriptions... but both VP and SO2 are RPGs that I have fond memories of... and for the generation of console that those are for I can still go back and play those almost anyday and still have as much fun. Not many RPGs have that replay value.
Anyway, I'll end this off with that. There you go... you know a lot more about me... now go back to staring at my avatar.

DL was theoretically alive at the end of the first season, although pretty seriously injured. Micah and Nikki were visiting his grave during the episode a couple weeks ago, so at some point he did die. I'm assuming we'll learn what actually happened to him during "Four Months Earlier"; I have a feeling his death was caused by something other than what happened at the end of Chapter 1.
As to the grandmother and the (presumed) grandson... hell knows.
I apologize for referring to Monica as the "black Charlie". I should not describe her based on the color of her skin, and I'm if I offended you.
To Qulprit:
You might want to stop and think for a second about the implications of you, a white (or at least light skinned - I can't really tell from your picture; if not, sorry) male, lecturing a black male about what he should or should not call other people that share his skin color. I know that you're trying to do the right thing, and you were correct that I shouldn't have said what I said, but doing it in a "Thank god the educated white person was here to let black people know what they should and shouldn't say" undermines your message.
Not putting no hate on anyone... just sayin'
