Reasons for “Living”: You know what a love-letter is?

My favourite Frank Booth line may refer to “a bullet from a fucking gun”, but to me, a true love letter is the kind of thing that my favourite game developer is delivering to appreciative fans this September. Read on and all shall be revealed:

  • Harmonix has done what sadly too few video game developers do these days: they listen to their player base. I won’t list all of the fantastic things they’ve done to improve Rockband 2 but suffice to say, they will once again earn the money I’ll fork over to them in the fall.
  • E3 is upon us once again. Regardless if it’s much reduced in grandeur, the video game trade show still serves as the launch pad of many nerd hopes and dreams.
  • Signs and portents suggest that the beleaguered PC gaming industry may be in recovery. Dragon Age and Dawn of War 2 alone have me thinking of upgrading my 3 year old rig.
  • Poor Jackie-boy. Just can’t keep your fat mouth shut, can you? I ain’t no fancy, big-city lawyer (or any kid of legal expert, really), but common sense should tell you not to call the presiding judge in your disciplinary case a “wild woman” nor should you file briefs that contain pictures of naked men. You know what that results in? Well, you do now: an upgrade to the disbarment order from “enhanced” to “permanent” and a very substantial fine.
  • Instead of pussy-footing around the tabletop gaming issue, I have decided to forge ahead. Invites have gone out for involvement and regardless of response, some kind of goddamn PnP will be happening in my house!
