    • Everybody's Doing It

      I thought I would wait, before telling people, to see if I would actually keep updating it... and so far I've found I have a lot to say.Like all my dear former GameSpot friends, I have started posting on a blog elsewhere. It's not for lack of love for this site, it's just because I'm interested in beginning new memories.I will always be reading, and I will pop in from time to time (as I have here), but I hope to frequently update my blog there, if you are so inclined to read it:Doubt The StarsSo far it's been about things related to video games, of course, it's about some things that are personal, and it's about working in game development, above all.

It's been a couple of years and I used my desire to get a DS Lite as an excuse to give her my old DS as a hand-me-down, along with Nintendogs and a couple other games, including Animal Crossing.This morning, I get a frantic message from my mother, and we're in the middle of beta crunch time right now, so I'm half-reading it. She's going on and on about not being able to find the store and bells and fruit in her pockets and once I realized she was talking about Animal Crossing, I just sent her the link to GameFAQS and went back to work.A few hours later, she returns with a letter she has written some poor game guide author. It was so funny, I just had to share. Can anyone help a... Read more »
