Well, back from the madhouse known to the world as E3. Not quite as good as I hoped, but still worth it. Since Epinions doesn't have E3 coverage, you can read about my time there here. Feel free to email with any questions that you have about the show - it's too much to hit in just one article.

To keep my email inbox clean and organized, Steve and I have set up this site to let everyone send in their requests for games to be added. Slusy and I will both read this, and we will add your games as quickly as we can. Thanks for the patience.

For myself, I'm originally from New Jersey, but I now live in Boston, by way of south Florida and western Pennsylvania. I have a Bachelor's in French Language and Literature from Boston University, and that was about as much fun as it sounds.
I've also been gaming since before I walked, and I started on the classics, like Pac-Man, Frogger, and Donkey Kong. I know more gaming trivia than is healthy for any person, and two decades of playing video games has yet to dim my passion for the medium.
I'd like to welcome people to contact me, whether it be for advice or just to chat. My email address is above, and my AOL Instant Messenger name is TheSpoony1.
Flames, however, will be promptly reported to your ISP and saved so that I may laugh at them, so if you have a complaint, be polite about it.
Of course, if you're tired of just seeing the letters AOL next to each other due to those annoying CDs you constantly get, visit here and learn what you can do to show AOL up.

And now, a moment of satori:
Many people have wondered, "If a tree fell in the forest, and nobody was there, did it make a sound?" Well, it turns out that Dr. Erwin Schrödinger has figured out the answer for us. You see, in his famous cat example, he said that a cat in a box, which we cannot perceive, may be either alive or dead. But because it could exist in both states, the cat is alive AND dead. Therefore, you can easily say that the sound is just like the cat, unable to be perceived. It therefore exists and doesn't exist simultaneously.
(Please note: satori gained is only that of the author. No refunds will be given if this doesn't help you achieve satori.)
Addendum, 6/29/--: While I try to look at all comments to my writing, I often miss many comments people may have. If you want to tell me something, or would like me to look over your reviews and give you feedback, then please email me.

Addendum, 8/13/2001: As my friends know, I'm incredibly fond of comics on the web. And I'm always up for a strange little promotion. So in honor of my favorite web comics, I'm going to pull quotes from my favorite ones, to make my own reviews more interesting and raise awareness of my comic favorites. All artists have given their permission for me to do this, so in return for their kindness, I encourage you to check them out: Avalon - The story of high school, if your high school had ugly uniforms and really nice looking anime-style art. One of the best comics at integrating realism, strong stories with emotional impact, humorous jokes, and hockey. Not to mention the thrills of Guest Strip Sundays. Adventurers! - On the internet, no comic has lampooned role-playing video games longer or more precisely than Adventurers! While the humor is definitely aimed towards fans of the genre, much of the silliness pokes fun at all the strange things common to all entertainment. It's Walky! - Right now, aliens are all around us, trying to take over this planet. However dysfunctional, though, we've Got SEMME to protect us. With the ability to be simultaneously thoughtful and insane, It's Walky! is on the verge of all rational thought. It's great. And you can also check out its forerunner, "Roomies!" there too.
I also am a freelance writer, who has had his work in a couple of places. If anyone is interested at all, feel free to contact me above.
Finally, once interesting trivia fact - I am the only member that has his profile picture stored on Epinions' server. Do not even bother asking me how - it was a special exception, made for me back in 1999. It isn't going to happen again, promise.
