Late Night with Sean

Wow, good morning. Unfortunately, it came too soon. I think I need a summer vacation like the kids get from school. Sean is very much like me and loves to stay up late. With no school and it being a weekend, he wanted to stay up late gaming last night. I definitely am not as […]

Suzanne and Kids Trip Update

I got a chance to talk with Suzanne again last night on her annual Summer trek to Dallas. It sounds like they are having fun, but it also sounds like she is ready for it to come to an end. It’s a long trip and even though one really wants to see family, two plus […]

So Far, So Good

Today is day four of my summer bachelor time and so far, its been great. Well, it’s been pretty good anyways. As luck would have it, I have ended up late at work each night this week, so “my time” has been more limited than I had hoped. In addition, its rained every night this […]

Poker

I am still awaiting the release of Texas Hold Em for the Xbox 360. It’s supposed to be any day now. There is an Xbox 360 dashboard update coming next week, so it might be tied to that release. The kids and Suzanne have been getting into Texas Hold Em too. They are anxious to […]

Xbox Live and Cards

Since receiving my Xbox 360 last December, Sean and I have enjoyed many gaming sessions on it – many lasting into the wee morning hours of Saturdays or Sundays. Since we finally got real broadband (I dont count satellite) here in the mountains of AZ in February, we have been able to enjoy Xbox Live […]

Halo 3 or Not?

The internet rumors concerning a yet, unannounced, but anticipated Halo 3 continue to swirl. With E3 coming up in May, I would expect some high value news. However, this xbox.com forum post claims that Bungies next project isn’t even called Halo 3 though Master Chief plays a significant role. It’s an interesting read but only […]

Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter Initial Impressions

I picked up Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter for the Xbox 360 on the release date. I had looked forward to it on launch day for the Xbox 360, but it slipped to the right. At first glance, it appears to have been worth the wait. I haven’t had a chance to play all that much […]

Xbox 360 Call of Duty Patch

Finally, Infinity Ward has released information on the long awaited patch for COD2 on the Xbox 360 to address some multiplayer issues. The games is really good, but at times connection issues can make the online experience very frustrating. Unfortunately, I did not see a date for the patch release. Here’s some of what we […]

New Internet Service Being Installed Sunday

Hooah! The new wireless internet service is being installed Sunday afternoon. I guess those guys dont get to watch the Super Bowl. The service wont actually go live in my rural paradise here in the mountains of Arizona until the 15th of February. Excitement is an understatment of my feelings. Shedding the satellite service and […]

Halo 3 Rumors

Rumors about the still “unacknowledged” Halo 3 game from Bungie are swirling about the internet. As a long time player of both Halo and Halo 2 (yeah, my son is still better than me) on the Xbox (and now Xbox 360), I find some of these interesting as I eagerly await the games release. Below […]
