About Me
Oh, hi there. Didn’t see you enter. Anyways, welcome to my humble little blog. For those of you not familiar with who I am, the name’s Brian. I’m 24 years old and hail from Findlay, Ohio. I work at the local newspaper here as a copy editor, putting my four long years of college to actual use. Kind of. I think.
For those of you who might recognize me from elsewhere, I work as Assistant Gaming Editor over at Blogcritics Gaming and as Features Editor over at Tomopop. It's a lot of work, but it's worth it because I get to do a lot of cool shit with a lot of cool people.
I've been gaming since the relatively young age of around 3 and I've played plenty of games, both good and bad. I'm continuously expanding my gaming collection, which has become more of an archive in recent years as I'm focusing on collecting older, less well-known titles. You'd honestly be surprised on what people are missing out on in bargain bins...
Other than gaming, I love anime, manga, sports, movies, TV, and a whole lot more. I also happen to have something of a legendary love for Cammy, to the point that I am the site's unofficial official Cammy fanboy. And yes, I do play as her in Street Fighter and do so quite well, too.
Also, I am Chad Concelmo's B.F.F., my prize for coming in first in The Great Retro Quiz .18 - ActRaiser. Accept no substitutes. Not even Aerox.

Welcome to yet another bi-weekly edition of What'd You Get?, the C-Blog feature where we all share all the cool stuff we got over the past two weeks. Why? Because it's fun to show off. But this week is important for more reasons than showing off cool stuff. It's also the week that contains my birthday, as yet I move another step closer to approaching an age at which point I'm considered unmarriable by society's standards. Yay! This year, I'm hoping to get something like you see above. That's a Mario cake pan, in which you'd make a Mario cake. My parents used to have one, as I once received such a cake as a young buy, but I don't know if they kept it or not. I would hope they did and they're making me a Mario cake now for later this week, not going out to the store and buying one like last year. Thanks, guys. *sigh* This week, I skipped getting stuff because it is my birthday week, and I'm not buying stuff just to find out someone else bought it for me. Plus, I have to save up for trips and stuff. You know, important things outside of video games. They exist. So, this week, a big fat squadoosh on the getting things scale. Unless "getting excited for birthday time" counts. What'd all of you get?

I got my Haro Gundam 00 charm bracelet and my Misa Misa bag and that was about it.
Unangbangkay just gave me Bioshock for free on Steam, but ti seems that I got a driver problem at the moment, and it doesn't load new or saved games for some reason.
