WLTP was Arvin's idea. He and I had been trying to come up with ideas to do some internet creative stuff, but we are both super lazy so one big project wasn't likely. Arvin figured that something spread out over a long period of time might keep us motivated.

The first video game I ever played was Pole Position II. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pole_Position_II)

Arvin probably doesn't even know this is going on. He doesn't have the time to check the forum very often, what with the editing the podcast and stuff.

Are you a really intense gamer like do you play almost every day or like 2-6 hrs a week and have you ever thought of getting an xbox 360?

At the risk of speaking for Arvin, he used to be an intense gamer back in the NES and SNES days. I only had an Atari, so it lost its luster for a while. As for now, we just don't have enough time to game. We did have a pretty good session of Overkill the other day though.

I would get a 360 if I had the money and time. I don't get enough use out of the Wii as it is.

Again, neither Arvin or I have the time or money to invest in another game system, even though the PS2 was the juggernaut of its generation.

If we could make money doing this, we would in a heartbeat.

I have one question. What are the future plans for the site? I doubt you guys can still do it very long after you finish college, so when no more podcasts are filmed, will the site be shut down? Just curious.

We don't have any specific future plans. Our goal has always been to use WLTP as a platform and expand, but that is just a vague idea.

Steve, Arvin and I have been out of high school for nine years. Arvin is completely out of school already, and I have only a couple of months left. We are always going to do what we have and work on it as much as we can afford to.

Again, I can't speak for Arvin, but I think he would agree we would rather get the info on a new Zelda.
