About Me


Whats up Destructoid?
My name is Sean McLoughlin and I've been sent from the futurepast to march with my fellow robots to victory. For Niero!

My favorite games can be numerous (as I'm sure is true of most here at Dtoid), but my all time favorites are Final Fantasy VI, Diablo II, Bioshock, Braid, Demon's Souls and Metal Gear Solid. I never rent games and I rarely trade in or sell the games I buy so I have a pretty massive game collection. For the sake of space I'll just list the consoles and portables that I own: NES, SNES, Genesis, Game Gear, Game Boy Pocket, Game Boy Advance, Playstation, N64, Playstation 2 (one original which is broken and a Slim), Dreamcast, Gamecube, Xbox, Neo Geo Pocket, Nintendo DS, Nintendo DSi, PSP 2000, Xbox 360 (red-ringed once), a fully backwards compatible Playstation 3 and a Wii.

When I'm not in school or gaming you can probably find me reading a science fiction/fantasy novel or an issue of Wired or some such. My favorite authors are George RR Martin, Terry Brooks, Garth Nix and Terry Goodkind. I'm also a big fan of movies, my favorites right now are The Departed, Smoking Aces and Crank, although my all time favorite movie/director is Reservoir Dogs/Tarantino. I don't watch much TV and if I do its usually Discovery channel or Science Channel. I love Professional Wrestling, Y2J SAVE US! My favorite band is obviously The Grateful Dead although my musical tastes are quite varied. I listen to everything from T.I. to Metallica to Toby Keith. Also, MC Chris FTMFW!

Bored? Why not try one of the games I've made:
Floyd's Tomb
Season of Thorns

Not My Turning Point Gaming Rig
DaedHead8 | 2:33 PM on 04.02.2008 16 comments


I've been putting off entering this contest for far to long. So without further adieu, check out all my stuff:


Not much to see here, this is my old dell desktop with a crappy throw away monitor. The PC is a Dimension 4700 if that means anything to anybody. It's a few years old and I never game on it anymore. I love those Final Fantasy posters in the background though.


My favorite gaming Keyboard and Mouse setup ever, the Logitech G15 keyboard and the G5 mouse. I predominantly use them with my laptop now. Also, that SNES pad is USB. Makes playing those not-roms feel like the real thing.


My new MX518 mouse vs my preferred G5


Best firewall I've ever had.


Great game or Greatest game?


No question here, this is the greatest back-scratcher ever.


My IBM T61 laptop, not much to see here. Whats in the box? I'll never tell...

And since it seems like the popular thing to do, I figured I'd take this opportunity to post my console set up as well.


Can you spot: The shitty TV? The Xbox 360? The NES? The SNES? The Genesis? The Slim PS2? The Fat PS2? The N64? The Dreamcast? The Gamecube? The Two Gameboy Advances? The PlayStation? The Xbox? The NES game collection? The Big Daddy?


My 360 collection. (Not Pictured: Kameo, Call of Duty 2, King Kong, Prey)


My Xbox, Gamecube and PS2 collections


My DS and Neo Geo pocket travel bag. Also my DS collection.


My DVD shelf which is also where I store my 360 steering wheel.


The left door contains my SNES collection.


And the right side contains my PSone and Dreamcast collections.

So thats my setup. I know it's not the greatest and I know my collection isn't the biggest but I'm proud of them. I also happen to think that the Turning Point gaming rig would look great in place of that Dell, don't you?

Whats even better then my tape job is the fact that I used nails to hang up that cloth wall hanging behind the 360 collection. lol

I love my Neo Geo pocket Color, best handheld. I still play it after all these years. SNK vs Capcom MOTM is still the best Handheld fighting game ever, period.
