To bed with no dinner: A dissapointing e3

Wow, what happened this year? E3 was a flop. A major flop. It's been such a disappointment! There were a couple of good smatterings here and there. The new prince of persia is amazing, if you haven't checked it out you should:

As for the game we've been working on, it's been going along very well. Auston's been doing his programmin' deal:

And Peavey's art has come along swimmingly.

We actually managed to pump out an alpha a while back. Pretty cool. One of our professors actually worked for X-play at one point, so he gave us the professional treatment. Here is auston playing the alpha:

I'm still working on the whole "Making Do" thing. I'm trying not to buy anything commercial or unnecessary, so only food, clothes and medicine. I find myself indulging in things like candy and such more often, but I'm still doing really well. I've managed to save a ton of money, but I might not get to do fun stuff like go see the midnight release of Batman tonight. I guess its OK though, because its always best to see films with friends. Spinner has a really nice 1080p TV in its lounge. The guys and I hang out there a ton.

I'll try and post again some time this weekend. My friends and I are having a little maya fest this weekend back at the school. I'll definitely be blogging about that.

See you soon!
