Cone was out this weekend and left us in charge of the site, as such I wanted to deface this bad boy with a new green Pickle theme. I only mention it here because I WANTED TO DO IT. Now get this. I have no access to our server with the exception of a drop folder and my own portfolio folder. I find that funny as he won’t even let someone he has known most his damn life access! I swear you programmer freaks out there are so damn paranoid of shit. How can I be misbehaving when I can’t get into the gun rack? HOW!?

Few things on the way of games. The crew is about to Zelda it up, so if you’re interested hit us up on the forums. We have a gaming pad with a Zillion inch TV, very fresh shit. Also I am hearing great stuff for Chronicles of Riddick, and FSW. So far the SB crew says both are a good pick up. Stay the hell away from Van Crapsing, my god I played it a while, and I think my gaming skills diminished.

I suck at Halo

Ok? Good.

PC Gamer still sucks.

So far we have had awsome response. I am extending it one week longer. So if you have anything you would love to donate to an awsome family, then hit us up. Thanks so much to everyone that has donated already, amazing guys.

Since the big dog is out on vacation, I will try and see if I can provide you folks with some kind of gaming news. Due to budget problems, which consist of not compensating employees for insurance and proper wages, the State of California placed a $179,000 fine on Interplay. Interplay has officially closed its offices in California for the time being. CEO for Interplay Herve Caen has stated that Interplay will still be operational.

Toyota is offering a full demo of Gran Turismo 4 at toyoya.com. The only catch is, you must request information on their Hybrid vehicle The Toyota Prius. Of course be prepared to fill out a ton of stuff online and recieve a library of brochures and other Toyota stuff.

This does not surprise me one bit. This years upcoming Quakecon will not host or even demo the new upcoming Quake IV. WOW!! Didn’t see that coming, considering that the game has been in development for the past century. Raven software is still not confident in publicly showing any progress on the upcoming title Quake IV. I guess they will just do with playing their out of date Quake III.

Vacation

June 4, 2004

Dots, Cone Jr., and myself will be departing at the ripe hour of 6:45am on Monday for a week long family vacation. We will return late Saturday night. I leave you in the hands of Pickle and Pretzel and hope they don’t wreak havoc on anything. I will try to check my email as frequently as possible, but no guarantees. You guys have a wonderful week and I will see you next weekend.

P.S. After I leave work I am picking up a Classic GBA SP. This is my first foray into mobile gaming in over 10 years. Wish me luck.
