DrBong's Collection in GamesTM

CodyJarrett · 13 March 2007, 09:35

Here's a scan from GamesTM's regular article where they look at game collectors. This one features the HOL's very own DrBong!

Nice one! Massive collection you have there DrBong. And nice that HOL got a few mentions.

Galaxy · 13 March 2007, 12:33

It's an awesome collection, made more impressive by the fact that he's downunder (and not in the UK) where games were not nearly as readily available.

what a collection pal ! wow ^^

DamienD · 13 March 2007, 13:20

Nice one DrBong

kriz · 13 March 2007, 14:40

Cool DrBong!

NOB · 13 March 2007, 16:58

Awesome collection and nice article!

andreas · 14 March 2007, 02:03

Impressing indeed.

Yet I (in DrBong's stead) would've done everything that my real name does NOT get published in the article. I don't like this part. -- DrBong is my HOL team mate; but outside the private forum DrBong is DrBong and nobody else. That I address him with his real first name inside the private area(s) is another story; yet private things are private and should not be public because that's why they're private. Moreover ... the real name behind DrBong was not even known to myself until I became a HOL team member. Yes I AM serious. "Ah YOU are that DrBong! The one whose real name I often read in ... " - "Yes I am".

But well ... I'm not him, hence ... he may do what he wants; just my 2c, though.

is there any (comprehensible) reason for that ? i don't get the point. knowing real-life names should'nt be a problem i guess.

Hi phil !

andreas · 14 March 2007, 16:24

Well. Galahad is always Galahad and wants it that way. Only (and really only) because he's turned a game programmer for a short time, he gave permission (YES I DID ask him) to have his real name in HOL with the games he programmed.
Same with Codetapper. He would be very upset if I addressed him with his real first name in public - I'm sure. This is PRIVATE - full stop. And also may be regarded as a means of respect to the person's privacy.
From the rock scene (real-life example): Iggy Pop to a mag editor: "You may call me Iggy, Mr. Pop, Mr. Iggy ... whatever in your interview. Except for "Mr. Osterberg"; you may NOT address me that way, for that's private.". Yup, agree with him.

Sorry for all the OT stuff, but that's what popped into my eye from the article...

You perplex me.

BippyM · 14 March 2007, 16:55
