This will probably be my last regularily posted blog for a while.  I'm traveling around and today I leave the one place on my list of stops that has dedicated internet, from here thru mid sept i'll be stuck using libraries, McDonalds, Starbucks and other such free wifi providers.  So i'll be posting when I can but I could go a few days between internet connections.

i think that article about they sell more games because of achievements is bs, who buys a game because the achievements are easy? now adays games are to damn expensive to run out and buy just for achievements, rental is more likely. the forza 3 demo i played was awesome, graphics, physics everything, one im excited about. i got to get on that twitter/facebook/lastfm beta

Ya i sold my Fallout 3 copy unopened and unplayed for what i paid for it the day that the GOTY edition was announced. I figured i'd waited this long already and i'd rather get $100 worth of content for 50 or 60 bucks.

Not just the shirt, but the hands holding the "controller" are female, check out the watch.

BG&D is HD, but it's also very badly localized. European buyers beware!! Best news, SR3!!! WOOHOOO!!!!

While reading the comments on TDU following the link, I found a much more disturbing titbit in them. OBSIDIAN got their hands on Dragon Siege. GODDAMN fucking OBSIDIAN. How many more franchises will these people be allowed to screw over?

Actually C, i do :) Whenever there's a clearance sale at some reseller, i always look at the achievements to see how long i think it'll take me and i'll go pick the game up cheap. I call these 'filler' titles because they're not AAA titles, i would have bough those at launch. But they're games that I think i can play in a week or two, get 1000 points and move on because there's some major release coming soon but I don't have anything to play right now. Likewise i've rejected some games because the achievements are rediculous, the dev feels like you should only play their game for 8 hours a day straight for half a year to get all the achievements. No thanks. I can't remember which one i rejected recently but it was either unreal tournament or quake enemy territory, too many what i call extreme achievements based on having to play the game for way longer than i ever play a game before moving on.

With all the crazy plasmids, it's hard to tell if it's lag or dash. Lota fun though!

Dragon Siege? I meant Dungeon Siege. But I'm outraged right now.

Last i heard though, their co-op was going to suck. It was guest no story progression and henchmen style , no bringing your character in. So pretty lazy. Hopefully they make it real before it launches or i think i'll pass. No one wants to play henchmen and get no story progression for their time playing.

Why did Microsoft stop support for 3rd party memory units if they were just going to open it all up with USB?
