Here we go for another week.
We had high hopes this weekend to watch a lot of Netflix movies and DVR shows, but it turned into a relay session of taking naps instead. Of course, there was wine involved here and there ..
The Ghost Recon Online beta is quite fun, and while there are only 3-4 maps in rotation for now, none of them is overpowering toward one of the three classes (assault, recon and support). There are tons of unlocks and upgrades, but unfortunately, not too many clan-related features, unless they simply haven't been implemented yet.
I've also been digging into RAGE, and while it's quite fun, it feels very much like Fallout with dune buggies.

GDC 2012 is over, and our general impression is that it was rather unimpressive. Not a lot of big reveals or announcements, and not quite as many games being shown off as in prior years. It could be that because E3 has rebounded, the developers/publishers pick that venue to show off their goods and use GDC for its intended purpose: showing off technology to other developers and recruiting fresh blood.
It was good to meet up with people we hadn't seen in a while, but apart from a few select titles, it was pretty much a dud.
While John Carter has been getting positive reviews, we don't plan on seeing it just yet (although
Adam saw it a few days ago). Instead, we're going to catch up with shows on the DVR and Netflix movies.
