Ryan Adams, a platinum selling alt country/rock musician, has decided to take a break from music to try different things, including video game blogging.
The singer, who married actress Mandy Moore earlier this year, began blogging for The Awl in August 2009 and has since written several posts, most recently regarding the old days of arcade, Midway’s Gorf and Danzig.
“Playing Gorf is like getting wasted, or what I remember about getting wasted: It’s loud, it’s confusing, there are a bunch of lights going off, people (robots) are shooting at you, you need pizza, etc., then it’s game over.”
“I still play console arcade games. It feels like a more complete experience. The consoles themselves are really beautiful. I love all those fantastic flashing lights, the panels, the artwork; It’s like picking on somebody your own size.”
Although it may not be the most hard hitting gaming news it is nice to know that even a wealthy rockstar would choose gaming over his own career.
