Mass Effect 3 Closure
I woke up this morning knowing there was something I had to do before heading into work today. Something very important. Staring at my PS3 for a minute made me remember that today was the day we’d get answers from Bioware in the form of additional cutscenes. I immediately jumped up and ran to my…

Get Ready for ZombiU
I’m sure there was a collective sigh when a zombie appeared on the screen at the Ubisoft press conference.

Luckily Machinima was able to snag me a badge after all, though it wasn’t for editorial purposes. Despite my responsibilities being different for this year’s event, I’ll be doing my best to stalk developers…

A Hermit Transforming into a Cocoon?
Here I am reading over my last blog post on how I planned to start writing again, and it was dated five months ago. So much for ambition removing my writer’s block! As many of you know, I’ve moved to Los Angeles and now work for the company Machinima. I’ve only been in L.A. for…

Get Over It
Life is full of many obstacles, and you don’t need to read a random blog to know that. There’s many aspects in our lives that cause much stress, but nothing is more deterring than obstacles we place ourselves. Hurdles that we’ve allowed to just manifest themselves, and that we can’t seem to remove or jump…
