Calorie Mate
“Calorie Mate” is the code name given to the world’s top guy on the internet. Though several rumors have surfaced over the years in regards to the origin of his name, it’s commonly believed that he was born from the ashes of a normal man that too impatient to think of a better handle for Metal Gear Online. Whatever the story may be, it’s known that he’s been a frequent read of Gamespite long before it was called that, and in the latest incarnations of Talking Time has been an almost constant threat.
As is the case with most people that frequent the site, Calorie Mate enjoys video games quite a bit. He holds a soft spot in his heart for retro (NES onwards, anyway) gaming, and generally spends too much of his free time playing modern games. While particularly fond of action/adventure games, music games, and RPGs, he plays games in just about any genre imaginable and generally prefers to give anything a fair shot. Outside of gaming, he enjoys watching movies, reading books of the fictional variety, and spending time – or “hanging out” – with friends, acquaintances, and well-wishers. A recent graduate of UC Berkeley with a degree in Environmental Economics and Policy, Calorie Mate is not as dumb as he looks. Currently under the employ of the U.S. Federal Government, he’s got plenty of free time on his hands to contribute here.
