Interesting times ahead. It's probably not a curse in this instance.

Just a quick update tonight. I hope to catch up on a few things tomorrow. I'm still sorting through all the information coming out of E3. It turned out pretty well for trying something new. There was even less yelling overall from the video I saw. I approve of that. It will be interesting to read the break downs that are sure to follow.

I mentioned Dai Senryaku VII for the Xbox a while back. I just found out that a version of that game is coming out for the PS2 this month. With the huge PS2 installed base that might be of interest to a few people. In case you don't remember it's a turn based, hex map strategy war game with modern era units.

I haven't jumped on the World in Conflict beta as I mentioned, but I have heard some feedback. Mostly it's been along the lines that it's faster than any strategy game they've ever played. That's not what I usually look for, but I'm still optimistic. Perhaps I should start thinking of it as an action strategy game. If anyone else would like to report in, please drop me a line.

I've got my wife playing Carcassonne on Xbox Live Arcade with me. That's a good sign. I should have a review up soon.
