About Me

What's it like to be me? Imagine a thousand people throwing a party inside of your head and you're stuck outside without a ticket.

I guess I'm more collector than gamer these days. Sure I still play my 360/Wii/DS/3DS and so on, and I love them all, but I just don't have the free time like I used to.

I started my gaming life on an old Atari 2600 that my dad bought us for Christmas. I used to frequent the local arcade (early 80's) and I have a passion for anything pinball.

You may not know this but I also help run the Xbox 360 FNF side of business here on Dtoid. You can always host or find games to play here: Friday Night Fights Forum Thread

As of this update (4.19.2012) I currently have:

31 Consoles
34 Handhelds
1306 physical copies of various games
147 digital copies of games
Tons of other video game related items

I'm also a huge comic book nerd, here are some of my all-time favorites, not in any particular order:


Cerberus the Aardvark


Groo the Wanderer


Howard the Duck

I also love music, all types really. If I had to pick a favorite album of all time I would have to go with:


The Cure: Disintegration. This album is perfect, from beginning to end.

My daughter is also a gamer of sorts, here she is lavishing in all of her Nintendo plushies:


Oh yea, did I mention that I love Pinball more than any other game ever? Because I totally do.


I also like to doodle when I'm bored, as seen below

I drew that when I was bored.

Sometimes, when I'm not gaming or collecting I'll post blogs, here are a couple recent ones:

WE WANT YOU! To join our Destructoid Battlefield 3 Platoon
ChillyBilly | 9:44 AM on 10.27.2011 18 comments




That's right! We want you! To join one of our Destructoid Battlefield 3 Platoons. Joining is easy, here's all the information you need (This will be a pretty short blog).



Battlelog is Battlefield 3's way of tracking stats, forming platoons and ultimately helping Battlefield 3 players find and connect with friends to play online with. Since Destructoid is all about the community (because let's be honest, we have the best damn community ever here) Battlelog now makes it easier than ever to hook up with your fellow Dtoiders for some serious carnage.

Finding platoons in Battlelog is pretty basic and Destructoid gives you a whopping three options to choose from. Here they are in no particular order.

First we have the PC Platoon:


Destructoid PC Battlefield 3 Platoon (must be logged in to Battlelog in order for the link to work).

If for whatever reason you're unable to locate the Destructoid PC platoon you can look up Swishiee (founder) or DtoidShark(leader) and that should get you to the right spot.

Next up is the PS3 Platoon:


Destructoid PS3 Battlefield 3 Platoon (must be logged in to Battlelog in order for the link to work).

If for whatever reason you're unable to locate the Destructoid PS3 platoon you can look up Revolutionaire (founder) and that should get you to the correct platoon.

And last but not least the Xbox 360 Platoon:


Destructoid Xbox 360 Battlefield 3 Platoon (must be logged in to Battlelog in order for the link to work)

If for whatever reason you're unable to locate the Destructoid Xbox 360 platoon you can look up Chillybilly (founder) or MrAndyDixon (leader).

So that's pretty much the gist of it, simply log in to Battlelog and search for Destructoid in the "Platoons" section or search for one of the above Founders or Leaders.

You can also feel free to leave your Origin name in the comments below so that other Origin Dtoiders can add you as friends.

We look forward to seeing all of you on the battlefield.

HOOAH!

I will join the PS3 platoon as soon as my pre-order arrives. It must be tomorrow or saturday. :)

Thanks for putting this up, ChillyBilly!

Just a note to people new to Battlelog: it won't even let you login to the website until you've played the game at least one time. (This is true even if you already have an EA account.) Took me forever to figure that out :)

As buggy as this game is right now, once you get into a good match it shines pretty bright. Gotta wade through a lot of shit to get it going though :(

Anywho, who made the platoon logos and why is the ps3 one different? Just curious.

Thanks for the post Bill!

@Andy You can login before hand if you have the PC version tied to your account. That's the only way to get in early though.

@Lenigod We each made the logo for our own platoon. The PS3 one has more detail to it, which I like. In fact, the PS3 one was the first one made before ChillyBilly and I made the platoons for the other platforms.

Yeah. It's just an editor where you have to use pre-made shapes, kinda of like Halo or Forza.

I'm simply a detail oriented douchebag with too much time, is all.

It's also why our Presentation line is batshit insane.

I'd join, but damn, UK peeps can't get into Battlelog until tomorrow (today, if you were lucky with a pre-order). Who invented this shit?!

It's OK Stevil, you can join tomorrow! Or any day for that matter! I'm sure we'll be posting the hell out of this for a while to get more people involved for the various systems.

I want to play on 360 with you guys but I don't want to shell out 140$ to get XBL and the game... Hopefully I can figure something out soon.

I applied to the 360 platoon and became a fan of the other two. Can't wait to play with everyone online!

I'll hop on the PC platoon. I would have liked to get down with the Xbros but a free copy for the PC landed in my lap and it doesn't make much sense to pay for another.
