IF I WEREN’T HOSTING X-PLAY, I WOULD BE...
Setting up a fake set in my house so I could
pretend I was still hosting X-Play.
HOW DID YOU GET INTO TV?
I started as a producer on the Screesavers, and
they starting slowly putting me on air. They always
had a lot of faith in my abilities despite all the
evidence I presented to the contrary. Basically I'm
saying I was terrible.
WHAT'S YOUR FAVORITE "ADAM SESSLER
MOMENT" FROM X-PLAY
I love seeing how excited he is about the new form
of X-Play. Adam has always been a big proponent of
creating a relevant, topical show, and I think we've
achieved it. It's a very exciting time for all of us.
FAVORITE VIDEO GAME?
Phantasy Star III
If X-Play were a comic book,
what would be your superpower?
I would be The Enabler, convincing people everywhere
that they should keep playing video games when they
actually should get up and do the dishes before their wife
divorces them.
What's the most brutal
video game review you
ever given?
Hrm...there have been so many. Varmint
Hunter was a classic moment of X-Play
vitriol. We made fun of how the virtual
gophers would flip up and spin high in the
air after they got shot. We thought it was
bad physics, but then we saw footage of the actual
"sport" and found out that the rodents actually did loop-
de-loops in the air after they were shot. We all learned
something that day.
WHAT VIDEO GAME WOULD YOU LOVE TO SEE
YOUR 85-YEAR-OLD AUNT TRY TO FIGURE OUT?
These days it seems anything that's not on
the Wii is impossible for a non-gamer to figure out.
I just hope game companies don't simplify
everything in an effort to appeal to everyone..
Favorite TV Show?
X-Play. Duh. OK I also like The Wire.
No one knows I can ____?
Edit in final cut. No, people know that I guess. If
people keep asking me this question I'm going to
run out of things no one knows about.
Who's your favorite X-Play character?
I always loved Telly the Standards and Practices Vole,
and of course Ratty is my favorite of all time (so far). It
really is a horrible disgusting puppet that started out
with only one eye. After all his appearances he's slightly
singed and smells of rotting meat.
