We did something different with the credits for Demonschool. We used this format: name, title, lengthy description of what they did. Often you see credits in games where you don't know what the credited developer was actually responsible for. We wanted to give people proper, actual credit.

Me when the neighbor catches me walking up my driveway and asks if I don't mind taking their garbage cans out to the street on garbage day while they're on vacation.

RIP "Burger" Becky Heineman. My heart goes out to her legion of fans, friends, and family. A kind soul. Can we take 2600 Space Invaders out of the High Score rotation to freeze her World Record as a way to commemorate her?

Y'all, I know two hours is a big time commitment, but this panel I arranged and hosted last month is one of the most important things I've ever done for video game history. The launch of the NES is a crazier story than most people realize, and my guests were extremely generous with their memories.

I’m a huge fan of the 2-1B Medical Droid. I don’t even know why. He was just such a cool action figure to me. I regret not getting the large size Gentle Giant figure, so I got this tiny version.
