Gaming Update — Not Too Much

February 13th, 2008

So, I’ve been a bit busy. Once I get done with what I’ve been working on, I’ll reformat some earlier, useless-for-the-project drafts and post ‘em. In the meantime, I’ve not been gaming all that much.

Problem One: The TV in the living room no longer plays nice with my Xbox or PS2. I am really not looking to upgrade to an HD set in the near future, so getting a 360 is out of the question until then. I could talk about my fun time slowly beating FFXII via RF adapter, but it’s not that fun via RF on an ancient tube.

Probelm Two: I obsessively play MMOs. Not to the catass extent, but if I’m engaged in playing an MMO, I play at least twice or thrice a week. This tends to cut into “second job research gig” time. My main gaming achievement is being able to do every level of the game mentioned in this post in one pass.
Problem Three: I’m not really paying too much attention to the industry. My goofing off online time is spent trying to keep up with various forums and whatnot.

Bottom Line: Once I’m done with this project (or at least done for the time being), I expect to spend more time, actually, you know, gaming. I’m really looking forward to the changes that LoTRO has had since I last played in the fall. I might actually get Steam to play Audiosurf. It’s just too much fun and too nifty to pass up. Maybe this old rig will even run the games in the Orange Box.

So yeah. More updates of a varied nature to come. Really. I mean it this time.
