August 11, 2004

Thats right folks, The SB Crew along with the XG Crew and the EB Crew, will be on local TV tonight!! Fox 29 in San Antonio is covering a story on Doom 3, by hitting all the HOT gaming spots in SA. Fox 29 stopped by EB Games Huebner to interview our very own Man U to get his take on the sales of Doom 3!! Soon after, stopping at the our favorite LAN center Xtreme Gaming Cyber Cafe, to interview none other than our esteemed Kron, to see the impact of Doom 3 has on the LAN Center. Kron graciously invited me to be interviewed by Fox 29, to give my take on how Doom 3 rules!! Needless to say the Trifecta Bomb has been dropped on San Antonio tonight by the tight knit family of SB, EB, and XG.

I heard from Cone how impressive Ground Control was for an RTS. Being intrigued by the statement, I decide to give the sequel Ground Control 2 a try at the [url=http://www.goxgaming.com]Xtreme Gaming Cyber Cafe[/url]. First let me point out that the graphics are the most amazing I have seen for an RTS game ever. The game freaking rules with awesome camera dynamics, great gameplay, and incredible graphics. For those of you out there who want to try something a little different, this is the game for you.

I envy him

I envy Snowcone. However if I had a hamster who also happened to be a tremendous athlete, so much so to qualify and participate in the Hamster Olympics, I do think that my hamster would be able to run faster, jump higher, and lift more weight.

Long live hamster decathletes.
