Still not starting to finish the fight
I have a nice pristine copy of Halo 3 now (thank you, Edelman!). But the same problem occurs — on the first loading point, the disc says it’s unreadable, yet multiplayer works fine. Guess that means it’s my 360’s drive … Continue reading

How not to be an online journalist
Here on my pulpit, I have a simple goal. I hate the “ivory tower” concept, that the press is somehow removed from and better than its audience. At every job I’ve had, I’ve wanted my readers to know that, yeah, … Continue reading

The first Halo 3 consumer complaint
The good news is that I got my retail copy of Halo 3 today. Microsoft was very nice and sent out Limited Editions (the black metal two-disc case) for Saturday delivery. Super cool. The bad news is that the game … Continue reading

Hopes of mass-market gaming love…dashed again. The Halo 3 juggernaut approaches and therefore the mass media is starting to notice that there’s something going on in gameland and hey, maybe we should pay attention just in case? So Entertainment Weekly … Continue reading
Welcome to hardware hell
Well, a week ago, this was the scene at my office: That’s my three-red-lights 360 in its cozy little cardboard coffin. Microsoft sent me the shipping container for my return in just one week. Came with its own pre-paid UPS … Continue reading

What a weekend
Two gigs, many stories, but mostly, I’m still sorting out the fatigue. Some photos of Friday night’s big gig in the city to come. The important part: My Horde warrrior Gwynhwyfar finally hit 40 and got her mount. I had … Continue reading

Who’s your Big Daddy?
BioShock is finally here. To celebrate, GamesRadar did another of its infamous Digital Shorts, and I got roped into the act. Never let it be said that I am unwilling to look like a total dork for a joke.

Killin’ zombies in 2D
I shouldn’t still be playing Urban Dead, but for some reason, I still love it. Find me in Mitchem Mall in Vinetown; usually I hang down around Axtence in Osmondville. It’s a workin’ weekend, but that includes BioShock. 🙂
