Where’s that promised video critique?

I haven’t even begun filming it. An unexpected opportunity came up and I am now actually working on a game for a change. I’m very excited.

Can’t give away any details, but hopefully once pre-production slows down I should be able to find a slow period to either write or record.

This isn’t one of those “I forgot / I was lazy / I didn’t know what to write” circumstances. I am genuinely busy. Trust me. I’ll provide proof someday.

Where’s my game news? What’s happening?

To be honest, there’s nothing going on right now. So don’t worry about it. The game world is incredibly dull, except for Warhammer.

And the Fracture and Mercenaries 2 demos are lackluster, if not terrible.

I’m working on a game right now, so I don’t have much time to talk. Yes, a game. I’ll be uploading my portfolio with my work (finally) at some point soon and then I’ll keep posting about progress with this thing. It’s actually rather exciting. I’m just nervous.

Work is slowly taking over my life. And then there’s World of Warcraft and Monster Hunter, which are viruses. Not to mention I’m giving Beyond Good and Evil a full playthrough, and I still need to get Eye of Judgment to work (why is it so hard to make the cards readable?). My time is nonexistent. In theory. So give me a few more days, maybe a week, and I’ll give you guys the scoop.

God I need sleep.

I’m too busy applying for an internship, applying for scholarships, turning in midterms, working on commissions (due May) and playing Metal Gear Online.

MGO is my only salvation. My nerves are shot and I’ve worked myself down through the skin this weekend. Come Wednesday everything should be turned in, however, and I will be able to breathe once more.

Holding breath until then.

Wish me luck.

MGO is awesome, by the way.
