About that "greatest swordfighter in the world" part - there is a real good explanation for that one. He was the guy who wrote the software for the swordfighting simulation.

To my knowledge I might still be the best racer in the world in some racing game I wrote last year, so I can absolutely relate to that ;-)

As I recall, in the end he also turns out to be a great swordfighter in real life though.

Something about single-handedly assaulting an aircraft carrier using only his katana? That was pretty much where the book lost me.

He also had the help of a railgun called Reason.
