A bit of a news review this week, like Rock Band, the Austin GDC, and a bit of a tangent about DragonCon, which we didn’t go to but want to badly. RIP Auto Assault! A game design tangent about playing with the concept of death in FPS games. We rant a bit about our trial period playing Eve Online!

PAX Overload! We come back still buzzed from an awesome time at PAX 2007 and talk about our experiences - what we saw, what we did, what we drank. We’re also far more pumped about EVE Online now are looking to set up some EGR pwning action in that game.

In preparing for the Winnebago that is Comic-Con this weekend, we are donning our respective Geek Armor and getting pumped up while talking about the other upcoming conventions Blizzcon and Penny Arcade Expo. More info has come out recently about TerraDrive - a LARP/Paper Roleplaying game that will be debuting at PAX and we discuss our first impressions, a little bit of the WoW talk sneaks in under the guise of pre-Blizzcon speculation, and much reminiscing is done about Comic Con past and future (future reminiscing? - yes) and what it means to gamers in a post-E3 world. We wrap it up with some discussion of masters of marketing like Pokemon, constantly showing us how it’s done, and some frank statistics on in-game advertisements now that the science is coming of age. Also we say “Chocolate Rain” a lot.

Conventions on the brain. We’re deep in the trenches of ‘convention high season,’ having just been to Anime Expo, getting buzzed by E3, and now waiting for Comicon and Blizzcon. We give a bit of an E3 wrap up, going through some of the things that jumped out at us since last show, as well as a few stories and experiences from past Anime Expos. We discuss conventions in general, and then ponder about Anime licensing and the business models. Lastly, we take five and flex our game development muscles, and come up with some ideas for a game based around Conventions.

WTF happened overnight?
Chocolate Raaaaaaaain!!!!!
Anywho, I’m slow on the uptake lately. I’ve removed many communities from my friends list on LJ, I’ve stopped going to /b/.
Why?
Because HARRY POTTER is coming out in a few days and I’m fighting to not encounter any spoilers. So far I think I’ve only run into one small one, but I don’t want to ruin stuff for myself.
ZOMG HARRY POTTER MANIA. We’ll talk about how this series has shaped the world we see today.
I’ve started playing FFVIII again. Why am I feeling so nostalgic lately? Could this be considered old school? Will Square-Enix jump on the FFVIII bandwagon next?
Also, Square is jumping from console to console. Is this some plot to get hardcore fans to purchase multiple systems? Those sneaky bastards. We’ll talk about that too.
Got some awesome music too. And I’ll probably babble a bit as well. I’m not on my own network, so if there are any differences, I blame my Latino neighbors who don’t know how to secure their wireless. EL OH EL.
