Today's UPF will have a sombre tone, no-one will play any games and everyone will be sat looking sadly at the empty chair in front of the PC.
Then Rorie walks in and complains about vending machines.

Dan Rykert is the best thing that could possibly happen. I've been watching Game Informer's Super Replays, and he's seriously entertaining. He's got that sort of "big personality" that's been missing since Ryan died.

I'm not announcing my new gig yet, but I'm looking forward to having some very important thoughts about the gaming industry.

First piece for the new gig is called "Swinging Locks." I'm giving the animator who gave life to Dixie Kong's ponytail his 27,000 word due.

Next up is "Switching Gear." Were frequent users of AKI Man in WCW/NWO Revenge more prone to developing latex fetishes later in life?

That one is 56,000 words and features seven embedded videos with the same production budget as Avatar 2.

Had never heard of this guy, watched the E3 video with butt tumblr and now I want him on GB. The polygon avatar has to be a joke, right? I can't stand this roller coaster of emotions :-(

a single being with one head, or a single being with multiple heads like a games journalism zaphod beeblebrox? this is an important factor

It's gonna be GiantBomb.

Are you telling me that he's gonna join Polygon where no one over there is talking about wrestling?

Are you telling me that, the author of Air Force Gator is gonna join Polygon to write 'serious' articles?

I really do love this speculation about who this new Giant Bomb staff member is. For some reason it reminds me of old school WCW/nWo stuff (who the 3rd man was).

Only if it is Dan Rykert that would be awesome and it's more of a case of a cool "heel" joining a cool "heel" stable/video game website.

I do hope the Dan Rykert Polygon twitter avatar is trolling and he just shows up on Giant Bombs E3 live show as the new staff member.

I hope they get Dan. I've seen him in a few videos with the bomb crew and they seem still gel well together. And if he's moving out west, I doubt he's going to Polygon since they're in New York I think.
