About Me
Hey :] Call me Zippy :]

I have been told I'm an odd fellow, which is nice :) Loving Dtoid, been here for nearly a year now and I'm so glad I found a real community :D I feel more welcomed here than I have anywhere else.

I love all games new and old hence why I still have and play on my Spectrum, SNES, N64, PS1,2, Gameboy and more. I also have the rest of the N64/SNES games that I don't have in Physical form in Emulation form. I play PC a lot too. Check out Mame32 for a lot of classic very old arcade games.

On PC I mainly play TF2, GTA and L4D1/2. On PS3 I mainly play Killzone 2, Street Fighter 4, Mirrors Edge, Little Big Planet and a load more. Plus a lot of mini games, I play those a lot too.

I've currently just finished studying a BTEC in Game, Art and Media Design and now enjoying my holiday.

What I am playing at the moment (Steam ID: The_End21 or |LZ| Zippy):
Team Fortress 2, Worms: Reloaded

PSN: Gladiator_21

What I am reading at the moment:
Bill Hicks: Love All The People (a foreword)

What I am watching at the moment:
A lot of films.

What I am listening to at the moment:
Shpongle, The Knife and Felt.

My favourite games/series of all time:
Too many games to list, I have that list saved though.

Aborto's Ultimate Tag Team Contest: That SFII comic looks sexy
Zippyduda | 11:45 AM on 08.04.2009 10 comments


This will be my entry into the Contest to win the Comic Con swag offered up by aborto.



First up is the main man and vigilante of the team, Rorschach from the Watchmen graphic novel. I chose him as he is an excellent improviser and in any situation can think on his feet as well as being extremely strong and clever.

Rorschach doesn't carry weapons but due to his technical abilities he can conjure up pain in many forms. He fights dirty, just like the city he protects and I like that in a fighter. Add in the fact he's tactically brilliant not just in fights but in general and you would have one heck of a brawl if you were against him.

This man can handle multiple foes at a time and can deal with them swiftly and brutally, as shown if you've read the novel, played the game or watched the film. I do not want to be around when he dishes out the pain whether it be with just his fists, or his flipping pepper shaker.



Second in my line up is Fei Long, the tongue-in-cheek character from Street Fighter. As a mock up of Bruce Lee, but wielding great power in the right hands *cough* moi *cough* , Fei Long is a great adversary. He has the same attributes of Bruce Lee physically, aesthetically and mentally. He is not a superhero, he is an ordinary human trained to the peak of physical form.

Everyone reckons Chuck Norris is the strongest, most bad ass mother fucker on the planet. I don't think you'd be saying that so much after watching Way of the Dragon my friend, and considering Fei Long IS Bruce Lee (y'all just don't know he's back and funnier than ever), that makes him thee baddest mofocker here ladies and gentlemen. Now get on your knees!



This guy will snap your neck...upside down. How about that for a slice of fried gold?

I present to you, Sam Fisher, Splinter Cell's deadly lead character.

Sam would be great in pretty much any situation. He's great with any weapon, be it his great big, fat, meaty p---err knife, or his sniper-come-assault rifle, so you know he'll be good with it. He can either be the long range character, sitting at the back, dispensing his med kits, sniping people, or he can be up close and personal with his CQC (Close Quarters Combat) skills, laying the smackdown, holding people hostage or just breaking some poor guys and gals necks, poor sods.

Non of this stupid emo crap, whining about being a bit wet, not working for anybody but himself, using car mirrors for spying equipment. Oh no no, I'm talking the real deal boi. Modern Warfare 2 Night Vision Goggles, eat your heart out!


This is Sam Fisher, and he's outside your door aborto, coming to get that swag for me!

So that's my three man line up, Rorschach, Fei Long and Sam Fisher. I just noticed as well, that all these characters are great improvisers.

Hope you enjoyed the read :]

Gotta love Rorschach and Fei Long, though Sam Fisher has always been pretty "meh" to me. I loved the pepper shaker reference, in the comics that fight in Moloch's was a bit more badass than in the movie.

Funfact: Bruce Lee trained Chuck Norris.

I think Chuck is the strongest by default since...you know... :[

:] Cheers ZP. I am still to watch the films so I can't wait :D

@De Bloo, wow, I honestly had no idea. Cheers for that, you learn something new everyday :] Yeah it's a shame he's gone, I was actually thinking about learning Jeet Kune Do

@Naim, yeah me too but I played the Splinter Cell series before MGS so it was more influential on me, but it made me LOVE stealth ('tis my favourite genre) and it introduced me to MGS through my love of the style.

They are both badass, and I would love to have both, but I love Fei Long like a brother haha :)
