Hi, my name is Matt. I'm 24 years old and living in Quebec City, Canada. I'm currently working in QA for Activision. I either want to be a game designer or own my own retro game/otaku store. I'm also a huge fan of RetroForce Go! I think that's about it.

Favorite Games:
Chrono Trigger
Super Mario World
Super Metroid
Final fantasy 3/6

I'll stop there I think, too much to list.
Current Games in progress:
Street Fighter IV
Fate/stay night
Fate/Unlimited Codes
Disgaea DS
I'll stop here too because I have like 50(at least) games in progress but I'm not actively playing them.
Interests:
Not doing my bio on the websites I go, because I hate doing that...

Reading Destructoid(I come here like 20 times a day when I'm not working...)
The next chapter of Touhou Project by Doujin circle Team Shanghai Alice was announced yesterday. Touhou Chireiten ~Subterranean Animism~ will be the 11th game in the series, even if technically there is three other official games.(7.5, 9.5 and 10.5) Zun will sell a demo at Reitaisai(Touhou convention, May 25th) for 300yen. I seriously can't wait to try it but it seems the bomb/power system from MoF is back, meh.
Tasofro will also release Touhou Hisouten 10.5: Scarlet Weather Rhapsody at Reitaisai, this game being the sequel to TH7.5 Immaterial and Missing Power(those titles are so long haha). So May 25 is a date to watch for touhou fans.
I don't normally do news post but didn't see anything regarding this awesome news so I decided to do it myself. For those that have no idea what these games are go to:Touhou Wiki.
I'll now leave with the screens Zun released so far.
ps: *hint* if you want to not try the games you can not search for "doujin" and "style" on google *hint*

This is the Phantasm level from Perfect Cherry Blossom, it's one of the most difficult level in the game so don't freak out if you want to play, the normal levels aren't as hard as that if you set it on easy or normal.
Keyboard is the way to go for touhou games for me, I tried with Saturn and Dreamcast controllers but the keyboard gets me better scores. Also looks like the screenshots died, I'll rehost them.

Unless you played a Touhou game with a Classic Controller or an arcade stick, you haven't truly played it.
