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've been an avid fan/player of video games since I was a child. The first game system that I remember playing was the Atari 2600. I enjoy everything from RPG's, shooters, fighting games. sports games and even the occasional racing sim.

I'm what you would call a "collector" and every now and then I will share my gaming hauls for all of Destructoid to see.

As of this update (8.11.2011) I currently have:

28 Consoles
31 Handhelds
1138 physical copies of various games
145 digital copies of games
Tons of other video game related items




My kid, lavishing in all of her Mario goodness.


I drew that when I was bored.

XPLOSION By HAGGARD (Great Advertising)
ChillyBilly | 5:47 PM on 06.20.2008 7 comments


Love it or hate it, Battlefield: Bad Company has some pretty decent advertising going for itself. While I was perusing my local GameStop I noticed this little ad for battlefield quietly tucked away.

XPLOSION By HAGGARD. The New Scent of Chaos



Look at the serious look on Haggard's face. That sultry stare, those pouty lips just beneath that manly mustache...


The text reads:
Fragmentation = 001
Light up your night with subtle hints of Thermite, Toasted Transport Tire and the warm scent of Scorched Flesh. Nothing turns on the nurses quite like this, short of spurting shrapnel wounds. Do not wear in airports.

Here is the back:


Too bad more company's didn't put this kind of effort in to their advertising. Oh and the smell when you open the sleeve, HORRID. It really does smell like a bad fire, some burnt rubber and something that I can only imagine is what burnt flesh smells like.



Is this post awesome? Vote it up!

GameStop isn't a magazine. Game Informer, perhaps? Maybe even GamePro?

B-Radicate.- Nah, it's a flyer at GameStop, right in front of the registers. And by tucked away I meant it was hidden behind hundreds of flyers for GTAIV
