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.

Monday's here, and that can only mean one thing: What'd You Get? is back! Yes, folks, the C-Blog feature (that should probably be on the front page in some shape or form *hinthintnudgenudge* :p) has returned so you can tell us all the cool things you've picked up this past week. And maybe if you want, what you plan on buying this week. Even if it's Let's Catch. Go on, we won't judge you, and I am totally not lying.
Honestly. Seriously. Maybe. Well, in a slight break from the norm: I bought something. Yes. I had a bunch of extra Microsoft Points sitting around that I had no idea what to do with, so I bought a game with them, just a little title: 
And it's sooooooo much fun. :3 Plus, it doesn't delete my saves like my copy of Gunstar Super Heroes randomly does. Yay! So Gunstar Heroes on Xbox Live Arcade was it for me this week, meaning I can switch out the game I have stuck in my DS' GBA slot finally. What'd all of you get, Dtoid Nation?

Living the dream since March 16, 2006
2 HOURS.
I also got Henry Hatsworth, old chap.
GOOD SHOW.
So yeahs, I picked up MGS2, played the fuck out of that, and then went back to the store the next day and picked up MGS3. I played that for about an hour before it stopped working. Yeah, that's right, it stopped fucking working - Right when I was starting to enjoy it too. So anyways, I took it into the store and had them resurface the CD. This seemed to fix it, but alas, it just made the game be able to play for an hour longer than last.
So took it back and traded it in for two more games off of the backlog : The original Devil May Cry (Excellent!) and Devil May Cry 3:Special Edition (Even more awesome!!).
I'm gonna go play some DMC3 right now, I'm fucking loving it.
Just gotta get some practice in and maybe I can get into some FNF action :D

Bulkmailer what's your PSN btw? Have to play LBP sometime together :) I'm guessing just your Dtoid name :)
Unfortunately I don't have an internet connection at home. Soon though, soon I shall be playing with everybody here.
As for purchases, Eternal Sonata for the PS3 became mine~
