Since LiBiPl.net HQ is slightly closer to Boston than Seattle,we were happy to attend the inaugural PAX East this year. We waited in line,played some games,played some games while waiting in line,saw the Naughty Dogs and the Obsidianati talk about their games,and brought home a large number of free [...]

Yesterday I went to see Simon Carlile and Kenny Young’s talk on the physics of game sound (Simon) and the sound of game physics (Kenny). It was a packed house (hence the low quality photography),and everyone seemed to enjoy both sides of the talk (even if Simon received the majority of the questions). [...] Not really;we weren’t even that close. We were sad to have to skip Eurogamer Expo in favor of more affordable local affairs,and even sadder when we were told that it was to be the site of the first LittleBigPlanet Mini Fan Meet. True,the GameX event in Philadelphia was a lot of [...] I didn’t even realize that Spaff Appreciation Day was a gift-giving holiday. I guess I’m just an artifact of a bygone age when it wasn’t so commercial,when we knew that keeping Spaff in our hearts was the real reason for the season. But who are we to complain when we are now no [...] [Image unrelated to story] In case anyone was confused into thinking that August 17th’s big LBP announcement (LittleBigPlanet Game-of-the-Year Edition details) was the promised big announcement for August 18th,it’s not. Sony blogsman Mark Valledor has asked us to wait until tomorrow for the “bigger”announcement. I’m not one to dwell on [...] More things to see and read while we wait: Going to be in London next week? I’m not,but MyLittleBigBlog is giving away two tickets to see Irish supergroup The Script at the LittleBigPlanet space in Covent Garden on Monday. So go send in an email,and get out of the house and enjoy some [...] First,without commenting directly on the recent unpleasantness,I’d like to give some words of encouragement to our friends at Sony and Media Molecule. I’ve been part of enough suddenly-delayed releases to know what a horrendous pain it can be. If any of you have time to read this between frantic phone calls and urgent [...] It looks like the 24-hour Game Jam event at Parsons The New School for Design was a big success. Team Sportmanship walked away with the “Best of Jam”prize for their large-scale punishingly-difficult Ueda-inspired level. PS3Fanboy has a good write-up with some pics and videos,including the good news: Thankfully,you’ll be able to play [...] Just shortly after the launch of LittleBigPlanet,Media Molecule will be delivering the Vision Statement at this year’s GameCity videogame festival in Nottingham. “The first GameCity festival was actually Media Molecule’s very first public appearance,so we’re thrilled to be able to return now having shipped LittleBigPlanet”,said Alex Evens of Media Molecule. “For us,[...] [UPDATE:More info and pics up on the Media Molecule Blog. Looks wonderful;I wonder who gets the props when they shut it down? ] This is already on the “Where to Play”page,but is worthy of special mention. If you’re not stuck over 5000km away like me,you’ll want to visit Picadilly Plaza [...] | ||||
