Another weekend over too soon! As planned, we did not get much done yesterday. Watched some Kitchen Nightmares, some Chuck and the second episodes of The Pacific, which was once more emotional and visceral at the same time.
I've got a slew of recent titles to check out, including Dragon Age, Aliens vs Predator and Mass Effect 2. I've just got to get around to actually pulling myself away from CrimeCraft.
Nothing major planned for this week, so we'll work on getting a few more interviews prepped, as well as a bunch of first looks at upcoming titles.

Our night on the town got off to a troublesome start last night, as one of our friends was already drunk from the get-go. Luckily, said person is not an annoying drunk and seemed to sober up during the course of dinner, only to get drunk again after a few glasses of wine.
Anyhow, no specific plans for this weekend, so today will be spent doing some minor errands, watch lots of movies/TV series and squeeze in some gaming to mix it all up. Sounds good, right?
