It's not that much less crazy today, but what's kept me here is the chance to be on the forefront of covering a rapidly evolving medium as it's moved from a niche product to a cultural force to an international juggernaut."Also, I like shooting zombies."...it's mostly the zombie shooting, now that I think about it."
