Oh yeah I know he is alive, but i am talking about his SA career. Destin went out on more of a high note and he has been so successful at IGN. I couldn't believe one day I turned on my xbox and loaded the IGN app and I saw Destin. I was amazed at what he has acheived and understood why he left this website because they couldn't match the number of opportunities at IGN. IGN has so much money that they can afford to pay their employees well so they don't have to work outside jobs.

GhostOfJared: I agree with you, but I don't know what Jared is making now and you are probably right that it is less than SA, but I also think that Jared did not want to leave SA because he needed both incomes to make a living. He did kind of burn his own bridge sharing his dislikes of SA on the internet.
It will be interesting to see the future of Screwattack unfold. Jared was a great personality and just the mention of his name gives the people on this website a boner. Lets hope Chad and Ben stay so we don't lose deathbattle. I thought newsroom was an ok show but I did like hard news even though Destin was the best at it.

BR1ZZY-B34R: Yea but Jared left for something that pays less than what he was getting payed at SA, I would understand him leaving to join a stie like IGN or Gametrailers but he left for a Youtube gimmick page. I get it follow your dreams and such but if your dreams aren't paying the bills maybe you should man up and deal with the hand your dealt. Destin left for something better but Jared, he was fired for something worse.
Jared will be missed by all, but you can still catch him on thegamestation on youtube, also you can check my page for more details about why jared is really gone.

BR1ZZY-B34R: not by me... I thought this departure was supposed to be graceful but hes trashing the sites name like I always knew he wanted to. I have said it before and I'll say it again, Jared never gave a shit about the people at the HQ, the G1's or the site at all. It was just a way for him to get recognized online so he can put his name out there... good riddance to bad rubbish
I'm just an all around kinda guy literally lol... I'm a bit on the fluffy side but yea I just like to take things one step at a time sometimes but mostly I like to push my limits as to how far I can go before it becomes illegal lol... I do wrestling and not backyard type like I mean we rent out rings and halls and put on shows for a price lol like semi yet not full official kinda stuff... I love my gaming systems to death they are like my babies lol, dont know how I could survive without them one bit j/k... sorta. I'm more of a person that can't be described in words but more like you would have to be with me to know about me and I'm not saying that to be cocky I'm saying that because I really can't describe myself in words and my head is starting to hurt trying to figure out a way to describe myself lol... sorry I can't get more in depth, all I can say is you know hit me up on Xbox Live if you game you know, call me up and hang out with me and you will get to know the real me and then you might be able to help me type this section out a bit better lol so for now... Arrivederci I Miei Amici, Auf Wiedersehen Meine Freunde, Adiós Mis Amigos... Goodbye My Friends.
