About Me

I am the Deputy News Editor at Destructoid. I write about videogames for a living. That last sentence is as awesome as it sounds, though not always in the ways you might think.

I also play host to Destructoid's live streaming satellite studio, Couchtoid. From there, we broadcast Backlog, an attempt to work through my stack of old games one hour at a time (Weeknights, 10pm Pacific) and Saturday Morning Hangover where Dtoid writer Jordan Devore and the always lovely ImpossiblePlant play often painful games for your amusement (Saturdays, 10am Pacific).

I'm fond of all types of gaming, either on a screen or a tabletop. In terms of video games, my interests vary wildly from platformers (2D preferred) to RPGs and the occasional FPS. The greatest game of all time is Mega Man 2 and any suggestion otherwise will be met with swift vengeance.

About Rodney Dangerfield:



The mere inclusion of Rodney Dangerfield can vastly improve anything. Films, music, toasters, anything. In particular, the force of Rodney Dangerfield could elevate video games to the level in which they are accepted by the mainstream as a true art form, bringing together people of all races, creeds and tax brackets in peace and harmony.

RIP Rodney.

F*** YOU DVDDESIGN - Day 04 Conrad Zimmerman | 1:12 PM on 05.02.2008 40 comments

Yes, yes, GTA IV is a masterpiece that everyone is adoring. Well, almost everyone. Some of us have a little restraint, after all. And for my stalwart brethren who have eschewed the pleasures of the game in lieu of a loftier goal, I offer this: Five ways you can enjoy GTA IV without actually playing it. Pwn it in teh Haloez I wouldn't take it on Live, though. Incredibly foul-mouthed and offensive Have it be your Pilates partner Remember to be conscious of your breathing Take it out to see a movie I highly recommend Iron Man Enjoy a romantic, candlelight dinner "You have really beautiful font, you know that?" And there's always... Also, check out the "multiplayer".
