e3 day two.


The 3DS. With Kid ICARUS! Every game in development for the 3ds here Pretty Impressive list. I’ll buy one to replace my old PHAT. Yeah, I still play on a gen 1 ds.

Zelda Skyward Swords. The last game, actually the only game that had me not switch between systems was Twilight Princess. Can’t wait for more console Link.

Goldeneye remade for the Wii. Cool. Donkey Kong returns, and last years Metroid Other M.

Sony Didn’t really show me anything I must have, not sold on the move yet, so I guess surprisingly Nintendo stole the show for me at least.

E3 day one thoughts

The ESPN/ Microsoft Partnership may be the coolest thing I saw all day. If I can watch my Pirates on ESPN3 on the xbox instead of my computer in HD, then I’m there in a second.

Not a big fan of what was shown for Kinect so far. Looks like they haven’t targeted much to their core audience, which in my opinion is a major mistake. Otherwise you can just stick with a Wii. UPDATE: UBISOFT is releasing a semisequel to classic REZ for both KINETIC and PSMOve. I will want that so lets see what PS has in other games before choosing either.

Gears 3 looks sick, but it is my favorite modern game series.

Otherwise the MS presser was a yawnner for me as I’m way passed bored with Call of Duty and Halo. Bring up the hype tommorow Nintendo and Sony.

College Football

I love college Football. I hate college football when it comes to the BCS. I should make where I’m coming from clear. I’m an East Carolina fan and so its from outside the BCS. What cracks me up in this recent realignment is hearing teams like Kansas cry because the PAC10 is making a money grab. Welcome to the world outside the bcs Kansas. Welcome to not getting millions of dollars for just being in a league, whether you win or not.
Welcome to what the rest of college football(and regardless of what tv tells you the majority of teams) experience every season.
I hope the whole thing blows up in there faces. But wait, can East Carolina join a BCS conference now? Say yes, and Ill tell Kansas to quit whining too. :>

Rubicon

From AMC, which because of Mad Men I’ll give anything they do a shot. If this is as good as it looks and with The Walking Dead series coming this fall, AMC will be eating my tv hours.

Polka Dot Creature

Polka Dot Creature now available on etsy. You’ll notice my price for originals has gone up to the outrageous $6 price point. These things cost almost the entire 5 dollars to make in canvas, paint, etc, so I’m just trying to turn a slight profit here. I left most of the old ones at $5 so get them while you can. Go To Etsy
