About Me


When not protecting the world from the injustices on all things non-awesome, I have some time to play some games. Not much time, but I do what I can. There's a lot of non-awesome in the world, so myself and the rest of the members of Team Awesome stay quite busy.

Also, I live in San Francisco, so if you're in the area or see me around say hi. I promise I won't bite. I work full-time for two different video game related companies. At one I test the vidja games. At the other I do PR for video games. Eventually I will only be doing the PR gig, so I'll finally have some free time in which I can return to hosting RetroforceGO!

I'd tell you the names of the companies, but I think the one I test for would probably have a hissy fit if their legal department knew there was a Destructoid Associate Editor in their testing department ;)


Random bullshit:

I like pizza rolls
Diet Pepsi is win
I have a yellow Cuban pimp suit



I'm Scorpio
SNES was prolly my most favorite system
I have a cape and wear it often
I do not like banana flavored candy of any kind
I drink beer from brown paper bags
Weezer's El Scorcho pretty much describes me
You can always crash on my couch
I flip a coin like Two-face to make decisions

Here it is, the somewhat episode 44 of RFGO!
Dyson | 2:41 PM on 04.08.2008 54 comments




Hello folks,

If you're reading this, we have all died in a plane crash in Paraguay.

Just kidding! If you're reading this then you are, hopefully, a fan of RetroforceGO! And the reason that you are here at this humble host's Cblog, is the fact that things went a little wonky with this week's episode.

Since you've made it this far, I can only assume that you already know the how and why of it all, so I won't rehash the entire story again. What I will do, is stop rambling and provide you with the link that you'll need to download the Not Really Episode 44.

That link would be RIGHT HERE.

By the way, this week's Highlights! are all of you.


<3's from RFGO!

NOt sounding anywhere near as bad as I was expecting. Thanks for tempering my expectations, because I'm totally enjoying this without a complaint (not that I'd complain anyways because I loves me some RFGo)!

@ Arresteddeveloper

Dyson is a school janitor, but he sometimes sneaks into computer labs to play some amazing PC FPS games.

Man, I wish this wasn't taking so long to download. My connection is crap at the moment.

Is anyone else getting totally caught up in the sentimentality of this all and feeling just... sentimental. This podcast is videogame love in a sound file.

I think all the servants in Cancun spoiled you :P.

Now I'll go ahead and /non-yellow-wristband-wearing-wrist to save you the trouble of finding paper bags :).

Retro games, awesome Rev rant, Cancun, and Jesus Christ Superstar: this is the greatest podcast in history.

Other than the weird echo/delay I think this is a pretty great podcast. I'd say, taking into account all of the personal moments you guys have, this episode is worthy of the Retroforce seal.

For serious, this has been the greatest episode of RetroForceGo! ever!

An ep about why we love video games, where that love came from, and the memories of them.

I'm totally touched.

Yay for Rev's rant!

Also I share the same problem when using skype and macs. Zero and I have this problem when we play online using skype. We solve the problem using a separate "skype" computer that is our mic for everyone and to avoid the echo we both wear headphones, but I'm sure you guys probably figured that out after the fact :) I guess it's info if you record the PAX show together.

It sounded like you guys had sooooo much fun! I love how nice the community is. I can't wait to get together with Chad and other LA DToiders agan.

So, who is Evil Chad again?

I think we may have mis-labeled the two Chads. Someone must of mixed up the good twin and the evil twin and the good twin just went a long with it (because he's a good Chad and does what he's told).

We have ourselves a sticky situation...

shit man, I normally love your episodes, but this weeks is just great. I'm listening to this in my drawing class and cracking up every couple of minutes, especially when any reference to Jim is made. Although it may not have great audio fidelity, it's still one of, if not my favorite show you guys have put out.
