So, at the behest of a gaming deity, I present to you the obligatory introductory blog post. As the profile failed to really say, I'm Bill, 24, from the UK, and the reason I discovered Destructoid was through a chance encounter with atheistium as she was on her way to PAX this summer. Rather, I should elaborate. I worked for a fairly well known bookstore (no, not that one), she bought a book (Halo novel, if I recall), I squeed about the impending release of Halo 3, she gave me the address for the site, and the rest, as many people say, is written by the victor.
So, that being the "how I met your gaming site" bit, onto my personal quirks. I own a 360, but feel the PS3 could be amazing, provided the games are available, I think the Wii needs someone to kick the collective arses of party-game developers already, and I'm a sucker for a well-written story.
Oh, and I have a weird habit where my brain sometimes feels compelled to follow things through to a natural (in my mind) if illogical conclusion.
So, there you have it. Me, in a not entirely informative way.

Welcome to the party, sir. If you haven't already, take off your shoes and sit by the fire while I fetch you some buttered pastries.
Also, check out the forums sometime. They like you just as much as I think you like me (thanks).
Not the terrorists! No no no. That'd be silly. Just Al from the kebab shop round the corner. If you're ever looking for work, off the books, call him.
Welcome.
I actually massively underachieved, so I'm overcompensating.

Thank you! It's literally something I made up about 18 months ago when I signed up for Gmail.
And the cake is not a lie, it's just...not there
Quite.
You're looking at a bona fide university drop out.
It's odd how proud I sound about that...
It's odd how ashamed I sound about that...
But in all seriousness, welcome aboard. S'all about cake, pies, and games here. Minus the cake. I hear it is a lie.
Thank you! And I guess I'll just have to console myself with the Portal song instead.
