I’m looking into my new courses for this coming term and I’m so glad I’m getting down to game development. Finally. The CD-ROM with one of the books should come with the Unreal and Torque game engines so I can play around with. Game design to me is almost like web design - if you enjoy it you’ll hardly even notice it’s actually work.

Oh. And it looks like Edwards is going for Obama. Go figure. I can’t stand politics but Obama is someone I’d go for. He seems more grounded into ‘real’ issues. I know that Clinton practically already lost, and to make it worse she spent millions of her own money to help her campaign out. Millions that could be put to better use, but she’s desperate. I don’t know, would I vote for someone who will try her hardest to sub-consciously buy her way through? I think not.

Now, I will go play Lucky Star Moe Drill. Because I need some happiness in my life.

Grand Theft Auto IV, the latest iteration of the hit video game franchise, racked up first-week sales of $500 million,

GTAIV sales have made more than any movie or video game in history. Ever. More than Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, and even Pirates of the Caribbean. That’s what you get when it’s fueled by controversy. Everyone was probably waiting to see if RockStar would get back at the devil known as Jack Thompson, who’s driving a campaign over getting rid of the blasphemy that the game is. Apparently he’s the only one by the looks of those numbers.

Personally I haven’t played the game for more than 10 minutes due to my own brother hogging it, but there’s only one word I can think of to describe it: realism. Part of that has to do with the game using euphoria, which I have little experience in. I was able to play with it for a brief while before switching computers to get some sort of 3D experience though. Lots of fun.

But enough game talk. I actually have a new project in the works. This time it’ll involve another vector character, so Mr.Dead-e Bear will soon have a friend.
