About Me





Hey guys, it's Dan or as everyone here knows me (including you, because you're looking at my blog), EternalDeathSlayer. Yeah, I jacked it from Grandma's Boy, eat me. Anyway, I love video games, but more importantly I also love to talk about video games, hence why I am here on Destructoid with you. I've got a wonderful little family of 2 kids and a wife and we all play games in some shape or form. My wife enjoys WoW (probably a bit too much) and playing Halo with either myself or her friends. My kids like kid stuff like Kinectimals or flash games on the PC. And me? I like almost everything. So long as a game is fun or has the ability to effect my feelings or emotions, I'm game.

Consoles:

Xbox 360

PS3

Wii

I play them all, but truthfully it's not in an "All Consoles are Equal" sort of way. I prefer the 360, mainly because I know more people who own one, but I do play my PS3 whenever a worthy exclusive is released. The exclusives make the purchase worth it. As for the Wii, well, it gets ignored most of the time. But I pull it out from time to time, usually when a big Nintendo game is released for it.

My Favorite Games:

10. Uncharted: Drake's Fortune
9. Gears of War
8. Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater (Theme Song FTW)
7. Final Fantasy IX
6. God of War
5. Super Mario Galaxy
4. Chrono Cross
3. Super Mario Bros. 3
2. Uncharted 2: Among Thieves
1. Resident Evil 4

And there you have it. I love Destructoid and it's amazing community. I will probably never leave.

GTA 4 isn't a religous experience, Halo 3 owns and abuses me, and I still has no job. BAAAWWWW!!

Take a look around the internet. The review scores for GTA4 are through the roof. It's really mind blowing when you think about it. No really, think about it all. Take it all in. Most of the industry will tell you that it's one of the greatest games of all time, that it's a revolutionary title and all that jazz. That we'll remember it 10 years down the road.

What a crock of shit.

I stopped playing it a little while back. About 2 weeks ago, actually. I couldn't tell you why honestly. It's not that the game is bad, on the contrary it truly is a great game. But what is missing? Perhaps it's just me. I cannot explain this for the life of me. There the game sits, waiting for me to love it, to play it, hell, just to touch it. But I can't.

WHY??? This was supposed to be something special, an amazing and transcendent game and experience, a work of art. Naturally I figured it would suck me in and never let me go, as San Andreas did before it. That did happen at first, but then it all went to shit.

DO YOU KNOW WHAT I HAVE BEEN PLAYING INSTEAD OF GTA 4?

Halo 3.

PLEASE SAVE ME.

Anywho, life sucks right now. I have been looking for a job, not blogging enough, and to top it off, I just spent 2 hours straight playing AEGIS WING two days ago trying to get some stupid, worthless achievement for like 20g. God I feel pathetic.

Also, I've made good friends with Jager and Meister tonight. They kept me company through the endless onslaught of crappy matches in Halo 3 these past few hours. And I also made my wife play Tetris so I could go on the internets. Isn't I special?

I'm going to go play some more Halo. And maybe die a slow death.

Oh wait, I'm already doing that.......

I miss my daily Dtoid blogging.

PS: I can't remember the last time I was up all night. The fucking birds are singing and chirping now. I must be losing it....

PSS: This is a waste of your time and space, but it's 5am EST so seriously, let's all stfu.

I'd be honored to "hold" your games for you if you have no desire to play them.

I still only have about 5 hours played in GTA 4. I'm like you, for some reason there's just something about it and I can't bring myself to play it. I don't hate the game, but there it is sitting on my shelf collecting dust while I've been playing Marvel: Ultimate Alliance racking up achievements and playing Painkiller which I just re-bought for my PC thanks to Steam.

Although this seems to happen to me with a lot of new games. It happened when I got Lost Odyssey which I still haven't finished the first disc of. Also, I haven't beaten a Wii game since Rayman: Raving Rabbids 1. And I own 8 Wii games... I really need to start beating things.

A lot of people really liked GTA IV. I'm one of them (I'd give it a 10). I don't get why people have a problem with that.

I'm in the same position, but I'm not playing Halo 3. I'm playing Xbox games, mainly some Lord of the Rings: Return of the King.

Meh, I'm easily amused. Both are fun, but in my growing years I feel the effects of age...and karma, after a past of laughing at all the old folks that swung the controller as if it would sense their will to jump higher or move faster. Maybe it's just latent retardation. One can only hope!

Depression blows. Look into taking Saint John's for a bit of a boost. Takes a while to work, but it's herbal and the only side-effects are occasional horniness and lucid dreams.

Luv ya Slayer! Don't get lost in the dark just yet. It'll see you staring and try to pull you in by the yarbles!

Double-post to reiterate: Your kids are too damn cute. You need to beat them a bit more to bring balance to the universe! Fatherhood is such a frightening prospect...
