I have a big problem coming up with usernames, because of some absurd vanity or something…Anyway, how did you pick your PSN? I hop frequently because I am ever searching for that non-generic, cool-sounding, unrelated to anything name that everyone will understand.
:xeye: “Yeah Dood” is a name so wack that no one in their right mind would chose it. Also, PSN wouldn’t let me and 120% at the end of it or use my preferred name “The Burning Naked Samurai”… dood.
Christgrinder was originally the name of my BADASS CAT who runs around and kills things all day and that’s sort of what I’d like to be like online so it seemed appropriate.
I got my second ID (Psycho_Six) at the MGS4 Midnight Launch/Signing at Virgin Megastore in NY. There were six of us at the end of the first line and I was the one always yelling something crazy; so when it came time to assign codenames, I got Psycho Six and I ended up changing my PSN to that.
My original, was just taken from a character I made in unfinished Castlevania fanfic. (DBelmont)
I used one handle for about 12 years or so and as I got older, it just struck me more and more as just sounding… like something a kid would come up with.
I struggled to come up with something original, easily read and easily shortened.
“zero” comes from the Smashing Pumpkins song by the same name and Jay is what everyone calls me.
A year or so later, someone kind of surprised me after I won a game online against them and said something like “you don’t think very highly of yourself, do you?” I asked where he came up with that theory and he said because I used “zero” and then also spelled my name all in lowercase.
