About Me


Yo East Coast, where you at?

Hello, fellow D-toiders, my name is Andrew and I reside in New York City. It has been such an amazing experience being a part of this wonderful community. From my activities as a host of the Friday Night Fight events to becoming one of the community members responsible for handling the Destructoid NY group, coordinating East Coast meetups to helping the PAX meetup group, I have loved every minute of my time spent with this community.

Please hang out with other Dtoid members whether it would on the main site chat to your local Dtoid group. It can be life changing, trust me on that.

Ouch... might be a little tricky to farm achievements off that one.

I'll be getting REZ for sure. Chess, not so sure. I used to play it with my dad a long time ago.... but waiting for people to take their turns is annoying :/ and im sure it'll be worse on xbla.

Rez FTW!

Also, if that was Battle Chess then maybe we'd be talking.

I agree with the above: REZ = YAY!!

I once got into a chess competition finals! My first two heats were against people who'd never played chess before, my next opponent didn't turn up and I accidentally checkmated my first real competitor - yes, entirely accidentally! I just meant to put him in check to delay my defeat! As soon as I came up against someone who actually concentrated and knew how to play, it was all over but I ended up winning some vouchers or something. Cool! =)
