About Me
Who am I? That's a good question. I'm a 26 year old gamer from Canada who's been playing video games for 22 years - I live and breathe games, and by extension, the industry. When I'm not gaming, reading about gaming or the industry, talking about games with friends or on forums or thinking about them, I enjoy reading, writing, sleeping, music, hockey, or hanging out with my girlfriend, though not necessarily in that order. I've recently finished my BA in linguistics, and I already have a half-BA in journalism that I'll probably never get done, considering I have enough experience to write news stories. Right now, I own a PS2, 360, gaming PC, DS, and PSP, and in the past, I have owned almost every console since the NES, at some point or another. I hope to expand to a PS3 as soon as I can.

I've actually written about the industry before, including an unsuccessful stint with RPGamer in my pre-university days. I was sadly forced to give it up because of a lack of time. I also wrote a gaming editorial column for my university paper, which my editor always wanted to make a "what's a cool game this week" column. Needless to say, they didn't renew me for another semester. Ah well.

I can usually be found playing RPGs or MMORPGs, though recently, I've started playing a lot of games from other genres, including some (incredibly unrealistic) racing games. Although I said I like hockey, I wouldn't be caught dead playing sports games; I just never really liked them.

I suppose if there's anything else you could possibly want to know about me, you can ask, though I can't imagine what you-

Oh, right, I forgot.

Cake or pie?

Definitely cake.

Reminder shortblog - Evo starts in a day and change.
Musai | 11:50 AM on 07.15.2009 6 comments




For those who care, this year's Evo championship series is underway in a little under a day and a half, as of this writing. With tournaments like Street Fighter IV, Super SFII HD, Soul Calibur IV, and Guilty Gear XX Accent Core headlining this year's competition, this should be one to watch.

For those that don't know or don't really know why they should care, Evolution, usually abbreviated 'Evo' is the; foremost competetive fighting game tournament series in North America, if not the world, and is usually the stage for amazing matches at a skill level that the majroity of us can't even dream of reaching. Luckily, for those of us who live too far from Las Vegas to go without bankrupting ourselves, there will be a free, live stream hosted on several sites over the weekend. The weekend will also be packed with non-tournament stuff, including a look at the latest build Tatsunoko vs Capcom, a playable build of Tekken 6, and what I presume to be the release version of MVC 2 for XBLA and PSN making an appearence.

Definitely worth checking out some matches, even if you aren't one for competetive gaming.
