About Me
Kevin Johnson is planning to take over the internet one small blog at a time. A Dartmouth grade with a penchant for having fun, drinking, and all things entertaining, Kevin will do his finest to add thoughtful, insightful looks at gaming and video games in general-- but do not worry, he can be just as snarky as the rest of the internet, 4chan excluded.

This person mainly has a "professional" blog at www.totalmediabridge.com; by "professional," he means it doesn't make money and it's really just a general showcase of his writing skill and blogging ability. In due time, however, he will improve it immensely in the months to go, along with a nice, super-secret project in the works. Stay Tuned!

Unfortunately, he isn't into the new gen-systems, because he can't afford them at the moment, due to the bad economy and student loans. But he still games when he can, mostly the unplayed favorites of the previous generation, and at the very least tries to stay current on what's going on, news wise.

So keep your eyes peeled for some particularly interesting stuff in the next year or so!

----------------------------------------------------

I'm currently in the process of writing a Ratchet & Clank screenplay exclusively for Destructoid! It takes place between R&C4: Deadlocked (the last PS2 game) and R&C: Tools of Destruction (the first PS3 game). I know fan fics tend to get pushed aside as lame, but so far the criticism has been positive, so hopefully if you do decide to read this, you won't sigh in annoyance.

So enjoy!

Let's write a video game movie! Follow-up - Ratchet and Clank [Shortblog]

Sorry for the next day post, but just wanted to clarify. Seems most people voted for Ratchet and Clank. So I'll work on that one, no problem. Thing is, I'm only finishing up 3 for the PS2, so although I could just wiki the details on the other games, I won't have a good assessment on them since I haven't played them. Also, I think I'll have waaaaaaaay too much from the pool to choose from. I'll try to write something based on what I know, and leave enough leg room to incorporate the other games when I get acquainted with them (for sequels, of course!)

Also, I'm throwing a few more games into the option pool (yeah, I like pools):

God of War
Sly Cooper
Bioshock

If that's it, then I'll get it going tonight and tomorrow. I've been thinking of some fun ideas, too. (Oddly enough, I had no idea the theme this month was "I, the Author".)



Is this post awesome? Vote it up!

Tools of Destruction is the main R&C game you need to play to see plot lines and characters. The 2 spinoff games (Quest for Booty and the Clank PSP game basically just coast on the main plot in ToD. In fact Secret Agent Clank takes place before Tools of Destruction.)

It's a short game and well worth the play time... but mostly you'll be able to avoid the "they've kidnapped Clank" plot line and learn a little more about Ratchet that might make for a better movie plot!

... actually, if you just go in an entirely different direction, I don't think you even need to reference or worry about the current plot developments... just have a lot of great characters! (Like Emperor Tachyon and Qwark!)
(oh, and download the trailers for the game off of PSN... they're pretty good!)

Its a great idea! Shia LaBooff!!! can be Ratchet, Michael Cera can be Clank, and Sir Ben Kingsley can play the villian! It'll be great, trust me.

@Esla- Unfortunately, I don't have a PS3 so I can't play it or watch the trailers. I guess I can at least look at the latter on youtube?

Although, the idea I have mulling in my head will take some of the stuff from ToD but I won't go into it, since I'm limited there. But thanks for the heads up.
