When I last posted my 360 had red ringed and I had picked up a PS3.  Since then, my laptop died and I’ve had endless car problems (none of which involve fire this time).  So I’ve been woefully neglecting this place.  Now that my 360 has returned, my laptop is back in action and I’m back at school with nothing to do, it is time to write again.  I’m going to try to do something each week day.  The key word there is try.  Who knows how this will actually end up, but I’m starting today.  Ready?  Go!

Much has happened in the last few weeks but the biggest new to me (and other gamers in the area) is that PAX East is coming to Boston in March 2010.  After watching all of the great panels from this year’s event, I cannot wait for my chance to get in and check it out.  I doubt it will be as big or “star studded” as the real PAX, but it has to start somewhere, and I’m glad that somewhere is my backyard.

LittleBigPlanet, one of the games I got a PS3 for, is going to be having a “limited public beta test…in September.”  And that is all the information we have.  I don’t know if limited means number of people or amount of time.  I’m leaning toward number of people since all betas are limited in time.  As soon as I hear how to sign up or get your name in the hat, I will link it.

This whole post has been done in Google’s nifty new Chrome browser.  So far it just seems like a different flavor of Firefox to me, but then again I don’t really know anything.
