Okay, so I’m just getting back home from a weekend away visiting my niece for her 2nd birthday, and after over six hours on the road, roughly eight hours spent outside in the sweltering heat sweating my ass off for birthday party/cookout, and very little sleep the past two nights, I am completely pooped right now. Now I remember why I stay inside and play video games all the time… the sun is exhausting!
On top of that, the week in coverage leading up to my fun-but-draining weekend was crazy busy. I’m literally having trouble keeping my eyes open at this point, so let me just leave you with a few key phrases that should be more than enough to provide a recap this week’s top stories: MGS4 review, lots of Gears of War 2 screenshots, Soul Calibur IV gameplay videos, Spore Creature Creator impressions, and, of course, Diablo III!
