As you likely know, Jim usually does this. But he’s wiped from E3. Everyone is, actually. No one’s in a mood or anything, and we feel pretty good about our coverage, but today is definitely a down day. We need a down day, company wide.
I didn’t do sh*t today. I ate a huge brunch, took some pictures, pulled weeds out of my flowerbeds, watched television and played some Wii. No writing or work or anything. Because of this, I felt that the least I could do is post thisGames of the weekitem. I’m totally not doing anything after this either.
Speaking of taking pictures, I felt this image of my corgi sleeping was appropriate for the day.
Hit the jump to see an example of our enthusiasm today.
Razak:Mario GalaxyandJoe Dangerfor review. I’m diggingJoe Dangermuch more than I thought I would, gotta finish it up though. Only one more star to go inGalaxy.
Devore:A tiny bit ofMetal Gear Solid: Peace Walkerand a dash ofBanjo-Tooiesince it was on sale for Xbox LIVE Arcade (really good port).
Tolentino:I had intended to play a bunch ofAlpha Protocoland finishMass Effect 2andDragon Age: Awakeningthis week, but instead I ended up playingMetal Gear Peace Walker, God of War 3, Far Cry 2,andAssassin’s Creed 2. Surprising, but not unwelcome.
Chester:Too many games to mention with E3 this week. Check out our coverage — I touched just about every game we covered and then some. The remainder of 2010 and what’s to come in 2011 is going to be an awesome time for gamers.
Sterling:I played E3. It was a challenging game.
Holmes:Spent more time shooting video and fighting with crappy internet than doing anything else last week, even playing videogames. PlayedMetal Gear Solid: Peace Walkeron the plane, almost done with the game, though I hear there’s more to it after the credits roll.
Sarkar:Because I didn’t want to go near videogames during the day (after writing about them all day, every day this week), the only games I played wereRock Band 2andThe Beatles: Rock Bandat DtoiderNintendoll‘s birthday party last night. Good times!
Lingen:I’ve played a bunch of games, but they all seemed to be overshadowed with the 3DS, which I know technically counts as hardware, but it was quite the experience, and as such must be included. Other than that, we spent a majority of the time re-playingHalf LifeandHalf Life 2in hopes there would be some sort of announcement, but alas there wasn’t. And to round it off I’ll be downloading theMedal of Honorbeta soon, so expect to finally see me on the PSN!
