E3 is back

Sat Jun 6, 2009, 12:20 AM
So after 2 years of shitty media only E3's, it's finaly back to the way it should be. This was my 3rd E3, I also went in 05, and 06. I went 2 days, and had plenty of fun. I ran into a ton of friends and former and current co-workers.

I also saw people like the villian dude from the Saw movies, Xbox 360's Major Nelson, that game analyist Michael Pachter, from Gametrailers.com and Spike TV Geoff Keighley, and the G4 chicks. A Cool moment was seeing the 4 main guys in charge of Valve playing New Super Mario Bros for Wii, while I was waiting behind them to play the game next.

There wasen't as much swag at this E3 vs the others I've been too, but I still managed get some cool stuff. And for games I played.....

Bayonetta was kick ass, might have been my favorite game at E3. Batman Arkham Asylum was how a Batman game should be, they finaly got a Batman game done right. Uncharted 2 co-op demo was really great,...almost makes me wanna get a PS3,...almost, naw I'll still wait for a price cut. I didn't play God of War 3 cause there was a line for it with a hour or 2 wait, but it looked great. Brutal Legend was a game I wasen't that interested it; but after playing it, it's a must have. Final Fantasy Dissidia played okay. Silent Hill for Wii looked good, but seemed boring to me and you can't kill anything at all in that game, so it's like a wannabe Clock Tower game, lame. Resident Evil Darkside Chronicles played great, it's a must have for fans of Resident Evil 2 and Code Veronica. Got to play a tiny bit of the Ghostbusters game, seemed good looked great.

For racing fan's, Forza 3 was a massive upgrade over Forza 2 and played great. Need for Speed Shift looked cool, but everytime your car touched anything they added a stupid blur effect that blocks your vision way too long. And Gran Turismo for PSP played good if you have to play GT on a handheld. Blur seemed stupid, you can tell the Project Gotham team just took their PGR engine and added stupid effects to try and make it a car combat game. Dirt 2 seemed good but the car they picked for the demo didn't have good grip, which made it hard to keep in control, but the 1st game was good, so this one should be too.

Overall it was a good E3. Next stop Comic Con next month!

What up stranger? How the hell are ya?
HEY, long time no see. Well I'm working at Quicksilver Software in Irvine now, well I've been there since end of April. I've done a couple small projects there.

And other than that I'm continuing to make new stuff for portfolio.

Hey David, how's work? I'm still looking. Tough industry... :(

Come on everybody, do the MARIO!! Swing your arms from side to side...!

((as my mother would say, "tiger bite trashy face!!!"))
Works as good as 5 month movie games can be, lol. :(

Yeah the industry is tough right now. Nobody is really looking to hire anybody right now, unless you have someone you know inside the company.

Good luck!
Ah, so I've been told. I feel so discouraged. Many people has told me to be patient...(sigh) while the bills are stacking up! :o
