A Very Special Message

Hullo, Zuul Arcade. We haven't forgotten you, honest! But we have all been busy, what with school, work, being lazy, a BIG convention (that we might have stuff about later on) and all the other stuff that keeps us away for too long.

So on one hand, I mostly just wanted to make a post because there hasn't been one in a little while. So the thing I wanted to bring to your attention was a rather neat post made by the always-excellent Wil Wheaton in which he talks about the games of his youth a bit.

Wil Wheaton - The Fountain of Youth

Of course, this is all just a thinly-veiled excuse to wish a very Happy Birthday to our friend and ALWAYS enthusiastic Zuul Arcade author, Sean.



What? No! Not Irish-born womanizing former-mechanic-turned-Nazi-killing-sabotage-artist of the resistance in Nazi-occupied WWII France from the game Saboteur, Sean Devlin! I meant OUR Sean!

...So, yeah, to make sense of that, I'll just point out that Devlin was the first video game character named Sean I found, and even though I've never heard of or played the game, the character seems appropriately badass.

In all seriousness, Sean is a great guy who is always trying to do awesome things for the rest of us, and even though we always call him a dick for it, I can only hope he knows just how much we really do appreciate it all. And since I can't go up to visit and hang out, here's your present.





I hope it's a good birthday, man.
