What is it that changes inside of us transforming ourselves from quirky gamer to unbiased journalist. This was a journey I had to make for myself, and one that I have not finished yet. I just thought I would share some of my revelations that I have experienced throughout my life that have shaped me into what I am today.

3AM; family is asleep and I had been in a two hour flame war with some fanboys over battletoads. Staring into the bleak white that is my computer screen I looked at what I had been writing and I began to notice the idiosyncrasies of our personalities. While we were both foaming at the mouth and ready to verbally abuse each other into the wee hours of the morning, neither of us would win and both of us would feel stupid about it later on. This revelation hit me like being drop kicked by a velociraptor. But I sat there and thought to myself, how can I move on from this state of fanboyism and move on to become an unbiased writer.

I actually went to a friend in seek of this answer and being the zen master he is he gave me some wonderful advice. Play as if you are a child again, where everything is amazing and the cynical nature of your thought process withers away. Taking all games at face value and treating every game with equality regardless of lame box art, platform or developer(EA). This new gaming zen has done amazing things for my writing and for my whole state of being. I must thank you for reading through my brief dissertation. It is very kind of you to take out the time and listen to my discourse of my past and where it has brought me today.

ping!
