Chris Van Der Kuyl

FG: What's the most underrated game ever?
CK: Transport Tycoon, it ripped the crap out of Sim City 2000 and it was written in Scotland.

FG: Have you ever lied to an arcade attendant to get a free credit?
CK: In my local arcade when I was a kid, lying to get free credit was like a loyalty bonus. They used to let you to do it once a week if you'd been in every day.

FG: Who in the games industry do you most admire?
CK: Ron Gilbert for creating all those fantastic masterpieces at LucasArts and then going and doing it all again at Cavedog. Oh and for selling it to GT for an obscene amount of money.

FG: What was the first videogame you ever played?
CK: Pong I suppose but the first one I really enjoyed was Space Invaders.

FG: Have you ever cancelled a date to play a videogame?
CK: I nearly cancelled Christmas for Zelda.

FG: What videogame websites do you have bookmarked?
CK: www.vis-plc.com, www.interplay.com, www.hedz.com, www.cavedog.com, www.gamespot.com, www.happypuppy.com, and lots, lots more...

FG: Did you ever own a Jaguar?
CK: I've always had German cars and big cats are banned as pets where I live.

FG: What game are you most looking forward to playing?
CK: Perfect Dark, I think those Rare boys will have pulled it off again.

FG: What's the first game you look for in an arcade?
CK: Final Furlong riding against Samantha Janus.

FG: Ever played a videogame in the nude?
CK: Every Saturday morning. It does wonders for Force Feedback.
