Booyah.

Joseph Tiberious “Sky” Walker (Aka The Main Man, aka The Living
Legend, aka Scoots McGee, aka Big Daddy Koopa) came into the world
kicking and screaming on a balmy night in 1984 in Sacramento,
California. He was born with an NES controller in his hands, which
means either his mother’s pregnancy cravings were weird, his father
was part robot, or that he was lying about it. Either way, it was a
symbol for a passion that would last a lifetime.

Most children grow up wanting to be an astronaut, a fireman, or a
dinosaur, but ever since April 1994 when he picked up Electronic
Gaming Monthly issue #58, Joe wanted to write about video games. He
also briefly considered a job as a Jedi Knight, but gave up when he
realized his Force powers only worked on automatic doors.

Joe wrote for his high school paper for 4 years, where he was in
charge of the humor section, and did awesome things like
trick-or-treat two weeks early, start a boy band, and offer a clone of
himself as a Christmas gift. After high school and college he
relegated himself to the unyeilding pull of the miserable void known
as retail.

He currently lives in Boston, Massachusetts, with his super hot
fiancee, who shares Joe’s passion for all things totally rad and not
lame. Together they will one day produce not only the most awesome
child ever gifted to the world, but also the most attractive.

As print journalism dies a slow, agonizing death, Joe turned his focus
to blogging, where anyone can write about anything and they don’t need
any degree from a fancy university to prove they know how to write. PK
Bloggin’!, which takes its name from the SNES masterpiece EarthBound,
was conceived in early 2009 and finally given life on December 31,
2009, which Joe claims is his last act “before the future. 2010, you
know?” which he pronounces as “twenty-ten” because it sounds better.

PK Bloggin’! is not a news blog, but rather a personal blog with a
strong focus on gaming. Rather than repost news from sites like
Joystiq and Kotaku, PK Bloggin’! will instead focus on reactions to
news stories, editorials on the industry, and whatever other weird
articles seem like a good idea.

Despite the fact I work at a health food store, I freakin' love Game Fuel.
