rome.ro > popular all-time > Computer Gaming World, October 2005, back page article.  I still don't understand what the article is supposed to be saying...

I'll react to the inaccuracies in the article right here:

#1: Daikatana sold over 200,000 copies worldwide after its first year on the shelf.  That is not a pathetic sales number in the PC market, especially circa 2000.

#2: I wasn't the marketing dept. at Ion or Eidos - I didn't come up with the "Bitch Ad"

#3: I didn't sneak my face into DOOM II - that was an easter egg planted by Adrian Carmack and Kevin Cloud

#4: I "court celebrity" just about as much as anyone else doing their job in this world.  When a magazine wants to know what I'm doing, I tell them.  It gets printed.  There you go, that's the whole crazy, power-hungry trip I'm on - I talk to journalists so they can write and make a living.
