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.

So Christmas is here for the good little kids who celebrate it. In case you don't, feel free to substitute with the holiday of your choosing. I'd pick Festivus, but that's just me.
However, the holidays mean gifts Lots of gifts. And gifts means free games. So it's only natural to talk about what we got, right? And that's why What'd You Get exists, to brag about everything we got over the past week. Now, I know next week will be the big post where we talk about all the cool stuff we got under the tree/menorah/Festivus Pole this year, but some people do give gifts early because they might not be home over the holidays or know where their parents keep the present stash. Me? I got that new Doritos Dash of Destruction game that was free. That was it for me this week, sadly, though next week, things will be much different. How about all of you?

also I know that for Christmas I'm getting some sort of surround sound package and Tropic Thunder on Bluray
I also picked up the following PSN titles: Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix (I actually paid for this one), PixelJunk Eden, Mega Man 9, Bionic Commando Rearmed, and Castlevania: Symphony of the Night.
I didn't pay for any of the latter four games -- I got them from a friend! I love Sony and its loopholes...
