"I'm at an interesting place," explains Barrymore, 23. "I'm numerically and biologically young, but I feel so much older because I've lived a fast life.

Though each of the four owners had been majorly successful before this venture, it was Romero's rock star-level status as co-creator of the revolutionary games Doom and Quake that generated the buzz, marked Dallas as the blood-and-gore capital and drew talent from around the world. Talent that is now assembled in a Mad Max postindustrial setting where the refrigerators are packed with soft drinks, the food is free, and with several lounges and sack centers. Why go home...
