Matthew Allard is an author, freelance writer, and Internet geek. Some of his stories were inspired by illustrations from Ian Dingman and made into a book called To Slow Down The Time.

This is his blog.
The old X-Men arcade game just recently came out to play on the iPad. If you didn’t know that this was now happening, I wanted you to know that this was now happening. I wanted you to freak out with me. The graphics are still pretty cheap, the character voices are still super ridiculous, and it’s still badass.
In Portland over Memorial Weekend we stumbled into Ground Kontrol and they had the original big-box arcade game. Occasionally the graphics would bork out because the machine was quite ancient, but whatever. We fed it a lot of quarters.
This is my jam.
