About Me
OK, hmmmmm, where do I start? I guess I should start at the beginning of my gaming life. I'm talking summers spent in Clacton arcades wasting 10p's on Championship Sprint, Double Dragon and Turtles. I'm on about California Games, Daley Thompson and Winter Olympics... Aaaaaah, the C64 days, when I was but 5 or 6 years old, seemed the sunniest. I swear it was either bright sunshine soaked summer or just plain snow in those heady times.

Nowadays, like the weather, gaming has gotten complex... So much choice and so little cash.

In a house with many consoles and far too much gaming testosterone, I devote most play time to my PS3. I don't have a preference for game type, although I'd say FPS's float my boat the most and RPGs haven't grabbed me by the balls once, yet.

Right now I'm playing
Black Ops, FIFA 11, Enslaved and Fallout 3 (GOTY Edition)

Hello everybody.

I've been silently creeping in the shadows of Dtoid for too long. And, no, I'm not new here... to those who are newer than me here, I was here when you were there. I was commanding this shit when you were commandeering attacks on N4G and wanking yourselves silly over at Kotaku. I've seen things some of you will only ever hear about.... what am I on about?

Anyway, hello, I love you all and I thought I'd just drop in and try to promote my new blog. It's quite tough getting off the ground when you are a new blog wesbite but I think if there is any community I can rely on with getting some hits, it's the lovely Destructoid. This is the site where I began my venture into video games blogging and it continues to inspire me to this very day.

I used to blog all the time and share with the community the silly things in my head. I'm now a chip off the old block, as it were.

For the record, I won't be copy/pasting my shit here for you all to be annoyed by but I will probably be dropping a fair few hints. I've paid my do's on Dtoid, so I'm not afraid to shamelessly plug my slowly decaying life for you all to see.

http://teabot.net <<< Have a click on that


Nah, you can't click this image. Who am I, Bill Gates? Not happening here. Click the link above like I said.

Basically, this is a blog I have started with my good pal Jack and we like to take a slightly sideways look at the world of gaming. You can't expect much sense to come from it but you may have fun while you're at it.

Big love to the community.

... out of curiosity, why did you move your blog off of Destructoid? Is it not possible to build up a following and present a daily or weekly blog on Dtoid? I'm truly curious as to why people move out on their own when there is an existing community and various ammenities here.
(though after the debacle of moving to and back from #newdestructoid, I have to admit I've been considering the concept of a wordpress blog primarily to act as a server or backup to ensure my previous Dtoid blogs are all saved in one place... and can be categorized the way I want to categorize them.... but then again, I'm a bit anal that way)

Cheers Tubatic :)

Hi Elsa, that's a good question. I think it's basically mainly because I wanted to have a blog that is designed just the way I want it (well, me and Jack) while also enabling more stuff like guest blogs - which will be introduced soon... - and podcasts and/or videos. It's basically a power trip while also a major challenge to see how far we can get the thing off the ground. Destructoid was always good to me and got me writing gigs elsewhere but in the end you want more control, even though my writing here will probably get more hits.

Meanwhile, you never know what sort of press passes you can get with your own website ;)

Please drop by... :D

Thanks for answering my question!... yeah, I guess I totally forgot about that "press pass" and the "review copy of games" thing! LOL! Makes sense now. :)

The design of your other blog is really quite nice, aesthetically.
