Game Journalist Meets His Girlfriend's Mom

Have you ever wondered what it's like to be a games journalist? Thanks to our brand new comic book series, you can find out exactly what my life is like. These are the continuing Adventures of Game Journalism, where I review games, talk about games and meet new people. Today is the Game Journalist's biggest challenge: Meeting his girlfriend's mother! Will he survive this ordeal? Find out now when you read another exciting episode of Adventures in Game Journalism!

People often ask me what it's like to be a world-famous games journalist. They want to know firsthand what it's like to jet set around the world playing games, attending events and hanging out with celebrities. Unfortunately, it's nothing like that! Being a games journalist means you sit on your butt all day typing. In an attempt to show you what it's like to write about games, Defunct Games is proud to introduce a brand new comic series: The Adventures in Game Journalism! Now you will finally see what it's like to be an editor at Defunct Games!

Last week the Game Journalist was introduced to a new friend. It did not go well. Now that he's away from the office, our hero can meet his girlfriend's mom for the first time.
