Hello every one who chooses to read my blog, I'm going to say this once to clear out the obvious and get it out of the way, I enjoy writing (as the epic nerd I am, I chose destructoid because I love the sense of humor) and in this blog I will question things about games and everyday life that in my opinion need questioning. Just so I don't get comments saying "you're a total wannabee" and "you need a new pass-time" I know.... I know...
I began writing this blog for a few reasons. The first of which is obvious. I adore video games, I can truly say I've played games since before i could remember. If my memory serves me right, my first game console was the SNES (I am 16, spare me). I played that thing until I started seeing colored bars when I closed my eyes.
One of my favorite games of all time is probably Megaman 2. I still remember some of the sound track, which inspired me to play guitar, and I still wait for the true-to-form Megaman sequel.
I also started this blog entirely out of self-motivation. I've always enjoyed writing; I used to do volunteer work for a small-time local newspaper. My writing is a little stale now as i haven't picked up a pen or truly sat down at the keyboard in months. I stopped writting for the local newspaper (which I will not name, I respect my confidentiality) because I felt i had very little room to put in my own opinion and there was a very small margin for error, as well as personality. Also the stories depressed me and although these stories were simply a fact of life, they truly did faze me from time.
I write this blog to ignite my own passion for freedom of expression and hope that my desire to express myself creatively returns.
I'm not usually this direct and my grammar may be crap but atleast it's sort of readable. My plan for this "blog" is to have three main features I update every week in true destructoid fashion.
Stupid question of the day (or week, depending) is entirely based on my own lack of common sense. These questions are like those little thoughts everybody has that, for some reason, you decided to share naively thinking your friends would take it seriously.
Compare and contrast (I may not actually name it that) is where I compare certain things about games, be it characters, locations, weapons, price, the list goes on.
The third of which is unplanned and probably completely miscellaneous. This may have nothing to do with anything or may completely change your lives... (I lol-ed at that too)
