I intend to continue collecting heroes from this line, so hopefully I’ll get to return to the subject soon. I’m pretty satisfied with the quality of the video, as well as the reaction from fans.

Brett Favre, a sure bet for the Football Hall of Fame and legendary quarterback for the Green Bay Packers was selected to be the athlete featured for the cover of Madden 2009. Of course we’re all well aware by now how the tribute to the temporarily retired player panned out, but how is the game itself?More
Madnet CyberCafe brings video gaming action back to State Street

“I wanted an affordable, but cool place to come play games” says Jonathan Cain. He hopes Madnet CyberCafe will be that place. The bi-level store front located at the intersection of State, Gilman, and Broom streets will play host to casual players and tournament pros alike when opens its doors in early September. Walking in the front door, one is greeted by a pair of 52 inch televisions equipped with Xbox360 systems and a selection of games. Beyond that are a few stations equipped with high end gaming PCs. But a trip downstairs reveals the heart of the operation.More
Hide And Seek in theaters. eh. not scary, deniro and fanning are wasted, doesn’t finish fast enough.
Empire Strikes Backon dvd. actually haven’t watched Jedi yet. Empire is good.
The Legend Of Zelda: The Minish Cap on GBA. Returns to form from classic zelda games with newer style. Doesn’t last long, but its fun start to finish.
Biker Build Off on Discovery Channel. How many fucking shows can this channel do where guys build or customize bikes or cars?
“Mexican Radio” by Wall Of Voodoo. found an old cd with this on it last week. hot damn, what a classic.
Today I sold my first car. It was pretty great.
I also had the misfortune of trying to explain concepts like market growth vs actual market to some friends. They just couldn’t get around the even if a market is healthy and experiencing growth over the previous year, it is still not as potentially profitable to be in as a much larger market with a larger untapped base. Once your small market fills up or bottoms out, theres no where to go. With the larger market you could easily surpass the maximum and continue to grow.
So basically.. yes Japan’s 150 Million population may have a higher percentage of gamers now… but the 1.3 billion people in North America and Europe are a much larger market. Japanese games are over. Western games now lead. Get used to it.
