I got into gaming with the Atari 2600 and I've been playing hard and espousing the benefits of gaming to my friends ever since. I love simulations and platformers but I've been known to take in a dungeon-crawler once in a while. I have a bachelor's degree in graphic design and hope to eventually break into 3D modelling. Currently I work for Loki's Planet, a social networking site for gamers where I have more fun than I should ever be allowed to have at a job. And I abhor improper grammar.

    Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Could Be The Next Game From Activision

    "I liked the games they came out with a couple years ago, mindless button-mashing notwithstanding. And the first season of the new cartoon was AMAZINGLY good, in my humble opinion."

    Lara Croft Starring In New Non-Tomb Raider Branded Game

    "I second the idea of a 2D sidescrolling platformer ala the original Prince of Persia. They're basically the same game anyway, right?"

    Transformers: War for Cybertron Preview

    5 / 5

    "I have to do my patriotic duty as a TransFormers nerd and point out that Cybertron is a PLANET, not a city... if the game takes place in the Capitol City that'd be Iacon."

    Mortal Kombat Movies Getting Reboot?

    "I completely agree with the idea of this movie being defined by having an "R" rating. If the filmmakers wanted to go out on a limb and make it some sort of crossover horror/fighting film, that..."

    Has Guy Ritchie Found His Lobo?
