Starcraft 2 gameplay footage ready for download
Wednesday, August 22nd, 2007Here is a downloadable version of the Starcraft 2 footage at what I believe to be an acceptable compromise between video/audio quality and file size. I'm providing Quicktime, DivX and WMV files, so everyone should be able to view it. If you want it in some other format, feel free ...

Starcraft 2 In-game footage
Sunday, August 19th, 2007Update: This video can now be downloaded in several different formats here. As I mentioned before, I spent a lot of time hovering around the Blizzard booth.

But I'll take plenty of pictures of all the nerdy things and post ...

If you haven't heard of Halogen, it was an RTS based on the Halo universe that was being developed independantly by a group of Halo fans. Was being developed, of course, ...
Portals are fucking incredible
Saturday, September 9th, 2006I thought that everyone had seen the following demo video for Portal by Valve already. If you haven't, take a look and just try to tell me that's not one of the coolest things you've ever seen. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=if3Qv2tHyfA Yes, yes. I know it's awesome.

Even if I did that, I would be able to experience everything. There are anime screenings, TCG/mini tourneys, exhibitors, ...
