I suppose I don't, no. I do think they're super weird, however. Sonic 06 could have been the game that killed the Sonic franchise. Should have been, even. It is a poster child for everything that is and was wrong with Sonic. If you tell me you like Sonic 06, you are saying you like Sonic the character more than Sonic the game, and given that Sonic should be a videogame first, that's pretty awful. Sega is a company, not a person, and does not deserve sympathy or sorrow for what happened to Sonic 06. A business decision made that game awful. One that made them a lot of money at the cost of quality. I can't support that, and nobody else should, either. But I don't hate people who are misguided enough to think something else - I just wish they'd wise up, is all.

I think it is out of control. The GOTY cover for Arkham Asylum was bad enough, but Arkham City's almost seems something somebody suggested as a joke and then it was actually published that way on accident.

Not usually. Most spiders are fairly harmless. I am, however, afraid of ones that AREN'T harmless, like black widows. I don't even usually bother killing most spiders I see, unless they're invading my personal space. Spiders are beneficial to killing other bugs in your home and even if you kill one, there's hundreds around you at any given time that you can't see. No use fretting about it.

MEGA MAN: ACT ZERO. It has multiple meanings, you see. (also, R.I.P. Mega Man Universe)

Too late, usually. It's actually kind of terrible what my sleep schedule is like, and I get genuinely distressed about it quite often. I worry I'm going to become one of those weirdos who can't function in society because of his sleep schedule. Some could argue that's already happened.

It's about to get crip crazy in here

This is hardly a question! Rising sounds like it ran in to some development trouble, what with changing producers and the game not being shown for two or three years. Kojima's just doing what Kojima always does. "You can handle this... oh wait no you can't, I'll do it myself."

Halloween, usually. I don't really know why. Christmas is cool, but even as a little kid we never had much money to go all-out for gifts. Halloween is way easier to have tons of fun on a budget, and that sort of ingrained upon me at a young age that I usually try and do something super special for October 31st. I've actually been overdoing it lately; get sort of burnt out. Usually wears off the week before Halloween, though.

Once I saw Japanese Sonic I always thought American Sonic looked kind of weird - what bothered me was the way his quills were separated from his head by a line, like they were some kind of unnatural growth or something Sonic attached to himself. Japan Sonic was a cleaner, unified design and usually depicted in slightly more dynamic poses, as opposed to American Sonic where they drew one image of him standing still and then tried to re-use that pose for everything else (springing, running, sitting, etc.).

Who in their right mind would answer no to this question?

I try not to, but there's a couple shows I like. Ace of Cakes was pretty good, though I guess that's gone now.

That is definitely a tiny, tiny photo.

Strangely enough? Doritos. I'm not saying you slather your Doritos with chocolate or anything, but you know, after having some M&Ms or a Hershey Kiss or whatever, eating some Doritos as a follow up actually ends up tasting kind of good sometimes. Get kind of a sweet/spicy/salty thing going on.

Gametrailers presented me with an opportunity a little over a year ago to participate in something they were working on. It was the kind of thing that could've been my big break if I played my cards right. There was a conference call I got to sit in on and it sounded like it was happening. For whatever reason, it didn't happen in any capacity whatsoever, and I don't really know why. Probably can't say much more than that about what it was for.
There was also that toy idea that I wrote out on my Sonic Retro wiki page profile thing. Beyond that, not much else. I probably should be more proactive about that kind of stuff, though. -
Evening person by far.

Kickball. I could've been professional, but then I found out steel-toed boots weren't tournament legal.

Ironically, this has been pre-determined by people that are not me: "Blazebeard".

I either want to make games or write about games. At this point, it's more likely I'll be writing about games.
