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 - The Finale Video Conrad Zimmerman | 7:45 AM on 05.29.2008 32 comments

The long odyssey is at an end and I've learned many things. I discovered the hard way that you can't take love for granted, that it must be cherished, else it might leave you. There are things in this world for which there is no easy fix and some which can never be undone. I've also learned that six large is way too much to pay a third-rate private eye for a week's work. And a good lawyer delivering a fat settlement can go a long way towards easing pain. And now, I give you this: a final tribute to my lost GTA. Godspeed, my friend.
