This guy is like a 16-year-old-looking living Will Ferrell impersonation of James Lipton. Just way more tragic.
You really don't know? Seriously?Quote:

He wrote the most ridiculously pretentious thing ever about Metal Gear Solid 2 being a postmodern masterpiece: http://www.insertcredit.com/features/dreaming2/
And I even dedicated a thread on TNL to his novel length Dragon Warrior VIII review, in which he calls it the greatest game of all time, and goes on for two pages about how sports-addled westerners can't understand Dragon Warrior 1's complex plot and its allegory to one's duty to the Emperor of Japan when the king tells the player to rescue the princess.
Basically he combines several of the internet's worst features into one hilariously pretentious package. My favourite thing in that video I posted is the part where he starts talking about how he's famous.
I read a review of his one time and I've heard the name, but I just don't get why I'm supposed to be aware of him. Does he even do this professionally?Quote:

He's Tim Rogers: Video Game Journalist.
I saw him do a freelance "25 best games in Japan of the year" article for Next Gen.com, so he's gotten paid at least once.Quote:
