    Anthony Burch leaving Destructoid, going to work for Gearbox

    So yeah, Anthony Burch is no longer going to write or produce "Rev Rants" for Destructoid, he's going to go work (as a designer I'm guessing) for Gearbox Studios (creators of Borderlands). I'll miss his articles, but it's kinda cool to see a journalist jump into the industry he's been critical of.

    No worries about HAWP though, apparently they're going to still make it, although I really wonder how they'll pull it off w/ him moving to Texas.

    Don't a ton of journalists go off to join game companies? Seems like it happens a lot.

        HAWP is one of my favorite internet things. It's so wacky. It better continue SOMEHOW.

                So, in his farewell post, he popped the question to his girlfriend Ashley Davis and she said yes w/ a big strawberry drawring in the comments! Epic and nerdy and cute! I'm gonna miss him though

                      He calls his girlfriend "Davis" because of this.

                      wonder if that will continue after they get married.

                            I'll be fashionably late to the party.

                            There are like three really mean things I instantly thought about your sister, but I refrained from saying them. Look, I'm growing as a person. =V
