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

So, yeah. Yesterday was my one day of doing stuff normal people do. I woke up non-hungover on a Saturday - something I can't remember for many a moon - and decided to clean the electrical nightmare that is my living room TV setup. See all that shit strewn about on the floor and the couch? Yeah, all of that came from underneath the TV (except the guitars).

What's worse, I haven't gotten to my room, yet. There's probably five times more video game stuff in there that needs to be organized. I'm almost positive that I'm not going to mess with it, though, because I'm having a GDC party in March and will just have to move it around yet again. So, to anyone that would potentially spend some time in my room: Yes, that is a Sega Nomad; yes, that entire bookshelf is filled with games and systems; and, yes, there are random controllers falling out of strange places.

With a bedroom like that, I'm probably never getting married ;)

Also, yeah, RetroforceGO! has a twitter that we will update when we do. You should follow it.

@Dead: Yeah ... guys. But if Cali allowed same sex marriage, I'd marry Chad Concelmo. Twice!

Man, I wish I had enough awesome stuff to make that kinda mess.

When my game stuff is messy, it's like...two Wii remotes and a classic controller on the floor...and maybe a couple discs...

I can't make a mess with digitally distributed games. At least, not one on my bedroom floor.

That's much better than lava, which my carpets often inexplicably turned into as a child.

So Dyson are you running the RFGO! twitter then? Because that means I just need to follow Chad and my collection is complete!

I don't think that Chad has one. I'm participating in using the Twitter, but everyone on the show has the account login info. So some days it may be Goodwill news, or Slurpee news :)

Yeah, we do. I was apparently in charge of it and then totally forgot it was there. :D I only realized it last night when I went in there to make one for myself.

Wow. One picture, seven consoles. And it's not even like it's an organized shot meant to show off a collection. I'm impressed.

That is an awesome mess you got going there. Why is there a bottle of Windex there, it seems way too out of place!

Dude, that just looks home-y. Because it's what my home looks like in between cleanings (except I don't have a Nomad, yet. Though I do have two Geneses [it's the pluralized form of Genesis, I looked it up.).

I dunno, Zero and I are married and we live in a pretty big mess ourselves...

We only clean up when we know we have company coming over, otherwise we live in filth.

Maybe it's just me, but I am unnecessarily obsessive about keeping my gaming set-up as clean as possible. After people leave from hanging out, all the controllers and games get put on their appropriate shelves, and systems are always kept on backless shelves so as to keep the floor uncluttered. Now, it may take a while to clean up all the other stuff, like tons of empty cans, but this helps keep anything game-related of mine in pristine condition.
