I will pinch you

So, I attended the Game Developer's Conference in San Francisco, immediately followed by Battle Cry, also (conveniently) in San Francisco.


...


I got nicely sunburned... turns out California has sky-windows that let that big yellow shiny thing blast through.



Not as bad as this dude, but you get my point.


Brian, I got Ninjas & Samurai + Samurai and Lawmen in the mail... we have to play Heroscape again, old pal. I'm currently in the middle of a game with my friend at work- we had to pause it because it was taking too long. So at lunch tomorrow, the war continues...

Learning Japanese Made Fun!

I like my game. Brian, did you like it? It took me a couple hours to get up to speed, but now I'm having a blast.

We took Evelyn to the zoo yesterday. It's surprising how hard it is for me to believe that zebras are real. I totally believe that pictures of zebras are real- I've seen hundreds of those. But real ones blow my mind. I keep thinking, "What happened to that poor donkey?!!".

We took some pictures of the creepy zebras.




See? Pictures of zebras are fine.

Geek Status: Verified



Well, today I joined the realm of the true video gaming elite. There was one final step I needed to take, and I have taken it.

I am importing a game from Japan. In Japanese.

Appropriately, it's a game about giant robots. Ironically, it's for the DS. So it's a tiny giant robot game.

Japanese developer's site, Sandlot

Also, check it out on IGN- Chousouju Mecha MG

More alike every day...

Brian...



Britney...




She's one step behind you, bro!

Hookin & Cookin

Well, I've networked the crap out of my house... there is no more crap in my house, it is all networked out. Hmm.

I hooked up my Xbox 360, Wii, and PC to my wireless router. I played co-op Crackdown demo with my friend on Xbox Live last night... it was really cool. You can talk with the included mike/headphone set and everything.



I can also pretend I work in customer service.

Also, I traded in the basketball game that came with my 360 for a copy of "Cookin Mama" for the DS. It's silly fun. Faith even played it. She made a "boiled egg".

360 degrees of Xevin Boxin

I'm thinking about getting an XBox 360. It feels like the right time.


Crackdown comes out Feb. 20.

Earth Defense Force comes out March 20.

Yes, yes, and yes.

(then, on the other hand, there's the PS3, but it's $200 more... blast! And the games are... umm... lacking.)

I just have to convice Faith that a new console will help with the housework.
