I have Guitar Hero III. For PC. It is awesome. g2gplaymorekseeyabye

So do we have any musicians in the house? Composer folk? People looking to delve into the field of game audio? Hopefully our non stop slew of programming and... uhm... programming articles (with a bit of design and biz/production thrown in every now and again) haven't scared off all the people who …

VGXpo Coverage is finally up, sorry it took longer than I expected. Good stuff there - for anyone looking to get into the games industry, I definitely recommend the read!


I mentioned in an earlier entry doing a little piece on slimming down Firefox. All the things I've done have been taken from the…

NaNoWriMo Entry #1

I finally spent some more time writing tonight, another 1:48 that netted me only 1,602 words, which is just beneath daily quota and so I'm still behind 5,515 words. But if I fall further behind at least this Saturday I actually have the entire day to myself with which to spend wri…

So I was in Philly this past weekend attending the VideoGameExpo (VGX) Breaking In conference. Philly is only about 1.5 hours from me, so I drove in both days. I've never driven into the city before, so of course when I got off the highway on Saturday I was of course instantly stuck in gridlocked t…

I'm going to code some basic functionality tomorrow, which means flying ships around the screen. Wheee. I'm not going to say any more about it, but I'm excited to …

News?

Just stopping by to do some updating. Nothing much exciting has happened in the past week, though Dave and Lissa are being threatened by the California wildfires, so cross your fingers for them. I still see em online but yesterday Lissa told me they were probably moving out for a while because…

I finally sat down and completed my IGC coverage, which amassed 8 pages in Word and took me the better part of 5 hours to write up, referencing my notes and researching online and all that wonderful stuff. But hey, if you missed out then you can at least get filled in on what you happened to miss s…

I really really really really wanna go to bed but this just can't wait till I wake up again. I started to back up files to Mozy before I went to bed and I happened to notice something that made me laugh out loud quite suddenly - it seems Mozy has a SimCity fan in their programming dep…
