Thanks Mark

February 18, 2005

Our Account Rep who handles all of our Nintendo stuff is moving on to a new company today and it is with my sincerest thanks that I wish him good luck. I know this is normally not the type of thing that anyone would hear about but we always emphasize the idea of community and any person that helps to make this place the best that it can be is a part of that community. Thanks Mark. Good luck in the new job.

EA Fantasy Football

I told you last week about the prizes en route to my house from EA and I am glad to report that they have arrived. It appears that being commish for the inaugural season is a cool thing and they wanted to reward me. I have a slick looking blue hat with the EA FF logo that also sports “Commish” on the back as well as a neat silver bobblehead.

No, you cannot have my fun prizes.

This week blows

February 17, 2005

Not only is it a slow week, (though the new Tenchu got released, but sans Rikimaru, its just not the same) I have also gotten some sort of bug. For the last few days I have been sick, and its just now finally getting better. So after its done I can stop slacking and finish the Nippon Ichi reviews for La Pucelle, and Phantom Brave. By the way both rule go buy them.

To getting better!

Apparently there are some very minor safety concerns with the Xbox Power Cable and Microsoft has voluntarily announced they are replacing all 14.1 million of them. You can order your replacement online [url=http://replacements.webprogram.com/en-us/index.asp]here[/url].

Here we are

February 17, 2005

So it is just barely Thursday and I almost feel like we are neglecting you guys because things are so slow right now. I have a few reviews I am working on but writer’s block has me at a stand still. We are also working on implementing some quick stats for the reviews that will allow you all to vote on the games we review.

On the contest front, make sure you get your entry in for Shadow of Rome as the drawing is only a day away. I am suprised at the lack of entries for this one, but whatever floats the proverbial boat.

In completely unrelated news, Cone Jr. began the righteous journey that is walking. He is no Carl Lewis, but he can walk a couple of feet at a time.

Maybe I can come up with some more interesting topics tomorrow to get you all talking.
