Distantly Yours: Web Design and Photos in Bloomington, IN, by Dan Hiester


Tomonobu Itagaki continues to be the foremost computer programmer rockstar

Here’s one for the programmers in the house. Maybe you aren’t familiar with the guy who oversaw Dead or Alive, and the more recent Ninja Gaiden games. He’s a total rockstar. He drinks, smokes, swears, and criticizes everything. Not like a sailor, mind you. Sailors do drink, smoke, and curse, but not like rockstars. Itagaki falls under the latter category.

And yet, he’s so much fun to read. So when Kotaku posts that Tomonobu Itagaku bets you a beer that PS3 is easier to program for than the NES, it totally makes my day.

Also, that picture is awesome.
