Around as long as I need to be.

About Me

It's always funny writing one of these things.
I'm Lucien. I have a great time simply being myself.
I'm an avid gamer who, through what I can only imagine is a combination of ostentation, dedication, and a hint of talent, consider myself a journalist. Yes, a "Game Journalist." I'm sure the level of respect we all get from writers in other fields is laughable considering we are prone to exposition on the semantics of Mario and Yoshi's camraderie at a moment's notice, but what I can guarantee is that we're having a lot more fun than you are. Even if we aren't directly keyed into world issues like the rest of you, I wouldn't have it any other way. After all, that's what you're there for, right? Keep your Pulitzers.
I've written for a few websites over the years, some large, some small, and even though I currently don't have a major home for my ravings, I can't use it as an excuse to stop doing what I do, because I just love it that much. A link to my blog is on the left. Read if you've ever picked up a controller in your life.
Other than that about me? Who knows. I'm not prone to preening, but I can say some people have told me I'm a great guy. Others have said I'm funny, sharp, sardonic, spontneous. Some of you even love me. A few of you think I'm handsome, or cute. Hell, I've even been told I'm like a drug, and that one was my personal favorite. What else can I say? If we're acquainted, I can tell you that you won't be too quick to leave once you come around, and I'll continue to surprise you as long as you let me. I'm funny that way. Realistically though, I'm just like everyone else, full of odd quirks and idiosyncrasies like the rest of us.
Of course, I'm not always a ray of sunshine, but who is? More often than not though, I'm just nice to be around. Not because I'm trying to be.
Just kinda happens.

Yep. GameStop can eat one with the rebounding non-logic that marked the decision to hand out pieces of the demo a DAY before the game comes out, and ONLY if you hand them 5 dollars.I take their hubris...

Inadequate tools.

I'll never understand what goes through a developer's mind when they decide to castrate their ambitious vision by releasing a Wii version of a current gen game. Would a painter compromise his unorthod...

A Soldier’s Story

The story of Gears of War 2 is a tale that not only looks upon the horror of war, but also focuses heavily on the celebration that it inspires. Unfortunately, the story of Marcus, Dom, Cole and Baird ...

Why am I still taken aback when I see this?

Playing the Tomb Raider: Underworld demo fills me with a sort of strange glee.Perhaps I'm just way too used to the vast number of terribly animated cartoons, or deliciously high-res games with questio...
