Sooooo... how about that PlayStation Network outage?
Oh, right. And the release of Portal 2, Mortal Kombat, SOCOM 4, Crysis 2, L.A. Noire and dozens of other games.
And there's this little thing called E3 going on next week? Jeez, where the heck have I been recently?!
Truth is: really, really busy. It's been a crazy two months. So here's a little recap:
~ picked up just under a dozen games, three of them new (the aforementioned Portal 2, Mortal Kombat [which our own Super Gamerologist is working on reviewing as we speak], and L.A. Noire)
~ finished Portal 2 single-player and co-op for PS3 (thank you, split-screen), Battlefield: Bad Company 2, Mass Effect 2: Arrival DLC
~ continued working on inFamous Hard/Evil playthrough, Batman: Arkham Asylum Hard playthrough, first time through Final Fantasy XIII, L.A. Noire, and Patapon 3 for PSP
~ worked on a gaming-related project that I cannot speak about due to legal obligations (non-disclosure agreements are for realz)
Phew. So yeah, that was my April and May. There were other things going on in my life, personally and professionally, that I'd rather not discuss, but all in all, it was a busy time. Rest assured, though: my commitment to this site and to our steady-but-hopefully-growing-soon community is not in question. As I write this, Gamerologist and I are still in talks to begin our site's podcast, and I am also in discussions with a few other like-minded gamers to start a Skype-based podcast with people from around the country. When I have more details on these, I will share them!
In the meantime, hopefully I'll be back to writing some reviews (still have to cover the Assassin's Creed games before Revelations comes out this fall, as well as Uncharted 2, and a few other noteworthy titles from this year), I plan to post some of the major news points from the E3 press conferences next week, and maybe some editorial pieces I've been juggling in my head for a while.
Until then, live long and may the Force be with you!
