Figured I'd jump on the this-is-my-real-face bandwagon. Here's a picture of me from last fall:

That's my face

I briefly had some unruly facial hair earlier this year.

facial hair

That's my son, by the way. He's adorable. We named him Link and you all know why Wink

Link

That's right, rockin' the bow tie

Next up is the other essential part of our little family, my wife Melissa. She actually has an account here on PixlBit (poeparade) but doesn't use it much. But she's pretty awesome and, as you can see, quite pretty Laughing

the wifey

She also has a tendency to apply filters to her pictures, in case you wondered

So, that's me and my family. Perhaps a little more than needed but oh well. Hope you liked it.

Be sure to check back later today for this week's OCR Spotlight (you know, the one I should have posted yesterday lol). Got a pretty sweet remix in mind from one of the early Mega Man games that includes a live trombone and electric guitar. It's, like, seven kinds of awesome, so be sure not to miss it!

Awesome family man, and it's great to put a face to the tag!

I originally wanted to name my son Ezio.. But my Wife shot that down pretty quickly and we decided on Cooper.

Thanks! It was actually my wife's idea to name our son Link (technically we named him Lincoln because we thought that was cool but we had every intention of just calling him Link). But Cooper is good too and hey, maybe he'll turn out to be sly... Wink

Love the bowtie, because lets face it, bowties are cool.

On a side note, people born in april tend to be pretty awesome.

Wow, I see you have the exact same birthday as my wife. You must be awesome too!

LaughingAwesome family man glad to finaly meet ya in person well in virtual world anyway lol so do ya think Jeffrey aka Temperence will put up a pic lol probable not. He doesnt seem to be as active as he was on 1up he must be a busy man lol and thanks for jumping on the gametag to face band wagon, you have to admit its cool to put a face to a name.

Thanks! I'm surprised so many people have jumped in with pictures but it's pretty cool. I hope Jeffrey does but we'll see. I think his job...whatever it is...has kept him very busy the last few months. I do miss his blogs but he does at least comment now and then.

yea not to often as of late usually only when im discussing classic ps2 games i get him to comment but for the most part he very quiet on pixlebit he was very opinionated on 1up.

Very nice family. I will try to put up some of mine later.

Posted on May 16, 2013 2:39 PM

Thanks! If I remember correctly, you have a couple of girls? Looking forward to seeing pics sometime.

Posted on May 16, 2013 2:22 PM

Nice pics Philip. Your son is adorable! Like a gerber baby or something lol. I was wondering about OCR Remix. If it's anything to do with Mega Man you know I'll be there. Wink 

Oh and I've been talking to Jeffrey a lot. He's just really busy. He will be writing stuff eventually, but I think for now he's just focusing on playing games. I'll let him know you guys were wondering about him.

Posted on May 16, 2013 2:52 PM

He's pretty much the cutest baby ever. Sometimes I wonder if we shouldn't try to make him a baby model lol. He's also really big, weighing about 26 lbs and he's only nine and a half months. That's heavier than most two-year-olds Surprised So we get a work out just carrying him around!

Glad to hear Jeffrey's doing ok. Hey, if you have time for only gaming or blogging, definitely go with gaming. I did have a nice long conversation with him in the comments of my frustrated-with-Demon's-Souls blog, so that was cool Smile

My two year old is 34 pounds hes a big boy wich is funny when hes with other two year olds he looks like a moose lol, but make no mistake yours is a big boy, my son has a disabilty the sensor between the two lobes of the brain is under developed but he doesnt talk we use sign language with him and really the only thing about his disabilty is he cant always feel the difference between hot and cold which means we have to really watch him but he is cute as a bug and very inteligent but his disability is permanent and was nothing we did but a one in a million chance.

Really cute kid and nice pics overall. I was worried that you lived in a sepia toned world then I realized it was just a filter. LOL

The expression on Link's face in the close up makes we think he knows something I don't. LOL

Posted on May 16, 2013 7:31 PM

Thanks! Link is a smart little booger, so I'm sure there's something he's not telling us lol

Posted on May 16, 2013 7:36 PM

Mini-Link be mackin on your girl,yo! See him up on her shoulder? Regulate and put that dirty elf in his place! Btw, your son is the snazziest sharpest dresser I've ever seen! I will learn from his swag!

Posted on May 16, 2013 9:21 PM

Yes, he's a dapper little man lol. My wife actually made that bow tie because we couldn't find one at the store. I think it turned out quite well Smile

Posted on May 16, 2013 9:54 PM

Cool family! Haha, I wonder if some people didn't recognize you when you shaved that beard!

Posted on May 16, 2013 10:09 PM

It was more like, did anyone recognize when I had it? Tongue Out

Posted on May 16, 2013 10:42 PM

Cool pics. Nice to see photos of your hero of timeSmile

Posted on May 16, 2013 10:56 PM

Thanks! I'm glad you don't play any of the games when he's so young. That'd be awfully hard lol

Posted on May 19, 2013 4:46 PM

bowties are cool....

another fellow beard sporter. I feel a challenge coming on......

Posted on May 19, 2013 9:39 PM

A beard off? Lol. I think I'd sit that one out. I'm sure I'll bring the beard back sometime but I've had my fill of copious facial hair for the time being lol
