 For those that missed out on all the fun, we still have a couple of ways for you to rewind the tape and get the recap right from the comfort of your own home. We preserved our Halo 3: ODST Panel on YouTube and officially launched our Twitter just in time for the festivities (which Brian made busy by supplying tons of sweet tweets). Other than that, it’s a you-had-to-be-there sort of thing. If you didn’t get your tickets and missed out in the ’09, remember to pick ‘em up early when PAX rolls around next year.

If you did make it out, be warned. We’ve heard that some of you were feeling ill. Headache, fever, and the chills. We can’t do much to restore your pluck, but if you think you might have scored something sinister along with what swag you could cart out of the convention center, make sure you call your doc straight away. Swine flu’s a-circulatin'.

While I'm on my trip I'll be blogging about my mis-adventures, and I've started a twitter feed so I can update sans internet cafe on an iPhone.

Love, Gorillawhat

I'd like to stay, and taste my first Champagne.
Yes?
No.

Goodbye Giantbomb, although my contributions and involvement with this site and it's community have been modest, I thoroughly enjoyed being a part of the original community and experiencing it's slow but successful evolution into what it is today. I see alot of potential in Giantbomb and its community, with the guides section slowly expanding with some pretty outrageous content (no Lies, I will not link you), the ridiculous amount of trivia submissions, Bombing Run game night, and an encyclopedia of useless game knowledge, there is no limit as to what can be done. At the moment, the site is getting new features almost monthly, and they are really beginning to shine (user polls, blog posts in forum) although I'm still waiting on the Achievements section of each wiki page...

Anyway, over the next 6 months, I will be departing on a trans continental journey of epic proportions. I'm leaving tomorrow to Vancouver, and from
Hopefully the Sherpas will play Advanced Wars with me
Hopefully the Sherpas will play Advanced Wars with me
there it is a milk run through Seattle and Germany to get to Cape Town, South Africa, where I will be staying for 3 weeks. After that, there is very little planned, but it should go like South Africa ----> Tanzania where I will climb Mt Kilimanjaro ----> Egypt ----> India ----> Nepal trekking around Everest ----> Vietnam ----> Thailand ----> China Hong Kong most likely ----> Maybe Japan if there is enough $ left over ----> Home
The way the weather is looking at the moment, I might have to drive down to Vancouver, where hopefully I will get bumped up from shitty seats to Business class seats.

At the moment I have a DS and 10 games to keep my game happy over the trip, along with entire backlog (6.7 days worth) of GFW Live to listen to. Along the way I hope to encounter some internet, allowing for the rest of my Podcast subscriptions to be downloaded, and hopefully, I'll be able to post a few blogs here telling you about the trip. I changed my Avatar for the occasion, maybe I should put the "gone fishing" one up to.

Thank you Giantbomb, I've enjoyed my time here, and should I return from my trip alive...
And play Halo

Yay! I finally went out and bought a DS today. My sister had one and i played hers a ton, but we're going on a 6 month trip (leaving in a week, I'll blog about it before I go) so I went out and bought one today. It's a shiny blue colour, and with it I bought a suprisingly well made gamestop carrying case, along with The World End With You and Professor Layton. I have like 7 other games with I bought while I used my sisters DS so my collection is now
  • Pokemon
  • Mariokart
  • Pheonix Wright TandT (I haven't played the first one, but whatever)
  • Hotel Dusk
  • Brain Age
  • Cooking Mama 2

I'm looking forward to playing these over the course of the trip, level up them pokemons!

What colour is your DS, and what are your favorite games?

I want NXE, I'm excited for it, but, like a minimum wage payed welfare family's child on Christmas, my excitement is useless. Nearly a month ago my Xbox was hit by E74, so big whoop, I'll just send it in, pay a few bucks, and have it back in time for the fun. Several weeks later(a month infact), after goggling over Fable 2, Dead Space, Left 4 Dead, Gears of War 2, Mirrors Edge, Fallout 3, and Saints Row 2, I realized something was clearly wrong. Where was my Xbox you ask? Well after about 2 hours on and off of the phone with Microsoft Customer Support, I still have no answer, all I get it "We'll investigate and contact you later" and now " Our system is down for update, call back in 48 hours". Why the fuck is this happening you might also ask? I don't know, but I sure as fuck better get my Xbox back soon, and maybe some compensation because quite frankly I am very unhappy with the level of service I am being given. This problem sure as hell better be resolved, UPS tracker says the Xbox center place has received it, but no one at Xbox Support knows what the hell is going on.

So, here I am NXEve, knowing that tomorrow there will be nothing but stinky coal in my stocking.

A WWII 3rd Person Shooter with Personality (X360)
 Armed to the teeth with a repeating repertoire  of cheesy insults and ammo, Aviator glasses, a never ending cigar, and one ridiculous name, Captain Deuce Wlliams looks like he marched straight out of the Generic Bad-Ass Soldier Creator. But that’s the thing, when was the last time you played as ...

Fun, Pure and Simple (X360)
Earth Defense Force 2017 (EDF) Is quite shamelessly a budget title. But being a budget title does not make EDF a bad game, far from it, infact it almost helps it in that it keeps the game so simplistic. One of the problems with so many new games is that ...

Today's schedule: Oblivion, Fallout 3, Modern Warfare 2, Chrono Trigger, and possibly Super Metroid. This is going to be amazing.
