5 quotesDreaming of Being a Video Game Character
Anna
If you could do anything with your life, and money was no object, what would you do?
Roy
Anything at all? Well, when I was a kid, I used to play this video game for hours - "Street Fighter 2". And I remember thinking, "You know, people get paid to do this - to think of the game and create the characters." Like there's this one character, Blanka; he's like half human and half lizard who eats his opponents. Well, you know, he either zaps them with lightning, or he bites their faces off. It's pretty cool, huh?
Anna
So you'd design video games?
Roy
No, I'd kinda like to be Blanka.
