History
Tommy Tallarico had his start working for Nintendo America on Kirby composing music under Mashiro Sakurai. He was said to have been struck by inspiration while working on the music for Pong, which was initally going to be a first person shooter to compose 8 bit music instead for a challenge. This change was so gamery and epic that Allan Alcorn, maker of Pong, had adjusted the visuals to fit the game. The rest, people say is history...
In 2018, tommy tallarico decided to start Wiki Camp 2, a camp where object based contestants compete on a Wiki for a stay in his CribsTM certified mansion. It was going to have 2763 yettabyte processing power, which would allow for vivid sounds and colours to be directly blasted into the prefrontal cortex of the viewer. It was first shown in E3 2022 to an audience of over 80,000 in the LA Memorial Coliseum, which resulted in several casualties. He cancelled the project after executives in EA and Sony gave him $10 million and a Donkey Kong statue to "lose" the remaining copy of Wiki Camp 2 in "a sea faring accident".
Critics say that the previous two paragraphs are either exaggerated or straight up lies, but hey, they may be jealous about the seven Guiness Records he paid for earned for his deeds.
