Getting caught up to speed
Ponza is now definitely back. I've had some wacky holiday weekends in my years, but none as weird as this year. I have survived, thankfully, and I'm ready to dish out the details on what I'm doing in the future. The past is definitely behind me.
I'm on track for some reviews, most written, but as of today, I am no longer 360-less. Before Christmas, my Xbox 360 Elite met with the long thought forgotten "Three Red Quadrants" and had to be shipped to Ontario. Almost a month later, it's back to me. This brings up a necessity of mine to do my first video review of a game I've been wanting to do forever: Fable 2. I think it will be timely, too, since the Knothole Glade DLC is coming soon, and my real life name is actually in the game: Gordon! I'm apparently an inventor with a submarine. Fun.
So, let's look at the review list here:
- Fable II
- Gears of War 2 (Now reviewed here)
- Fallout 3
- Little Big Planet
- Rock Band 2
- Kirby Super Star Ultra
- NHL 09 (for Xbox 360 and Playstation 3, the first of the console battles)
- Tritton Technology's AXPRO 5.1 Dolby Digital Surround Sound Gaming Headset (with reviews related to both the 360 and PS3 end of the gaming aspect, including DVD and Blu-ray playback)
If there's any games I'm missing, I'll probably get to them later, or even just talk about them in Episode 5 of the show. (That's right, I haven't forgotten I have a VIDEO or AUDIO Podcast, ugh, so out of the loop.)
I can officially confirm an appearance in the United States in April. I have airline tickets to Pittsburgh purchased, and this will be my first trip outside the country of Canada. A lot of people are shocked that I went through with it, but now that I'm more prepared to make the trip, I think it'll be easier to accept. Half of the costume I'll be wearing for a day down at Tekko is complete. The other half isn't, and I've been putting things off way too long. Now that my 360 is back, I think I'll get more restless, thus screwing my prep time even more, so I really, really, really need to work on these things that keep getting put off. I'm going to go start some of those right now.
For those wondering, I do have a proper camera now, and the Fable II review will be done in First-Person, so it should be cool. I'm excited for the idea of it. I hope by this week an audio podcast will be out, and I can start making calls on Skype to prepare for it.
Stay tuned!
