Acid for Blood

A couple weeks ago, one of the first things I did after moving to the area (the very day I moved to the area, actually) was to go to my local GameStop and pre-order the limited edition version of Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots (as well as the limited edition strategy guide […]

Per the suggestion of commenter Tough_Nutz in my previous post, I burned the Ubuntu Linux distribution to a CD, booted the OS from the CD-ROM drive, and transferred my critical files to an external hard drive. It totally worked! I’m so happy that I haven’t lost my files. I’m going to reinstall Windows on my […]

I left my job at Xfire last month to work at a company that I couldn’t speak of until today. It was my first day on the job as a Community Manager for Guild Wars. How cool is it that I’ve been writing about the game as a player and now I’m working at ArenaNet? […]

The April issue of Cerise Magazine is out. For this issue, I interviewed one of the co-founders of LesbianGamers.com.

If it wasn’t already obvious from the lack of content, I’ve been too busy to post. Blogging will be sparse for at least a month, possibly more. More on why later. Watch this space.

There were a couple of sessions that I really enjoyed at the Game Developers Conference this year.
The first was “Game Studies Download 3.0“. The Game Studies Download first appeared at GDC 2006, which was the first GDC I attended. I’m quite interested in the various fields of game studies, having dabbled in it (read: dissertation […]

I don’t have the energy to write proper blog posts during the Game Developers Conference, but I have been using Twitter to post micro updates about my experience and observations of the event and what’s happening around me at GDC. If you have a Twitter account, feel free to follow.
I’m using the TwitterSync Facebook application […]

I am not entirely surprised that it was terrible, but I decided a while ago that I was going to watch it anyway. You see, I really liked the original Dragonlance novels.
The art style and cel animation in Dragonlance: Dragons of Autumn Twilight were both awful. They must have been channeling the old Dungeons & […]

My, my, it’s been a while. Let’s do a brief gaming update.

Have not been playing Guild Wars like I said I would. Am planning on playing for at least a few hours this coming weekend.
Have, however, been playing Mario Kart DS and Guitar Hero III.
Sadly, have not gotten a Rock Band fix since last year.
Got […]

I was one of 350 people chosen to be a Conference Associate at the Game Developers Conference next month (18 - 22 February) in San Francisco. I did not attend the GDC in 2007 because I was busy moving across the country, however I was a CA at GDC 2006.
The CA army will be wearing […]
