I’ve written about Duke Nukem a bunch, but one thing I never did was something I did ages ago – made a functional prototype of Duke Nukem Forever for the Atari 2600. It was an April fool’s joke I released on the 3D Realms site back in 2003. The page I released for […]
Those who know me (and have read my blog over the years) know that I spent quite some time working for Scott Miller & George Broussard of Apogee Software (later 3D Realms). Was probably the single most fun job I’ve ever had in my life, and to this day, I still wish the old team […]
I just got done watching the documentary from Microsoft called “Game Over”, which is the story of the Atari 2600 and the E.T. cartridge being buried in a landfill in New Mexico. Wanted to write about it a bit, because several parts were pretty powerful for me.
If you’ve followed my blog at all, you may remember that my second Xbox 360 died in March of 2008. I talked about it here. This after my original 360 died back in Feb of 2007. Well, my third unit has now died, too. I posted about it on a private forum I belong to […]
I’ve been playing a lot of Animal Crossing: City Folk lately. I was hooked on this game in the last iteration on game consoles (that being the Gamecube version). This new one is mostly the same, and that’s a disappointment, but there’s enough small stuff changed that it doesn’t feel 100% like the old version. […]
I was a fan of the original Iron Chef show from Japan, and watched Iron Chef America for a time. It’s a respectful enough sequel to the original, unlike that fiasco with William Shatner. Anyway, I guess I should have expected this. A videogame based on Iron Chef. But I wonder how the heck it […]
As the two or three of you who regularly read this blog might remember, back in February of 2007, I had a problem where my original Xbox 360 died. My original Xbox 360 was bought on January 1, 2006, and lasted until February 3, 2007. At that time, I had been just out of warranty, […]
Saturday is the day my wife works, and Daddy gets to take care of Samantha. As that’s gone on awhile now, I’ve gotten better at it, and I find true enjoyment at spending time with my daughter, and watching her grow up right in front of me. Still, I do enjoy nap time. :) So […]
So far I have to say I’m enjoying my Xbox 360 a lot. Part of it is the rarity thing, since they’re still not terribly easy to get, the fact that I have one alone is cool. But what’s terribly fun to me is the interface of the system. It is always available no matter […]
As most people who are interested in videogames are doing right now, I went on a hunt for an Xbox 360 this afternoon. I didn’t hit every store that could conceivably have one, but I hit all the major stores in my immediate area, especially after hearing the story on the net about the Best […]
