I played age of empires back when it first came out and wasn't a fan of it's micromanagement. In warcraft/starcraft you build a farm and that's all you have to think about for food...Age of empires you have to send out hunting and fishing parties to keep food coming in. I decided to pick it up for my laptop (between flights and all), and did nothing but reinforce my original bad opinion of the game. I also picked up Age of Mythology thinking "This has got to be fun...I LOVE mythology". WRONG. Maybe I'm too quick to judgement but I prefer my RTS with a little less hands on action.

I also picked up Heroes of Might and Magic 4. I was a fan of the Warlords series and figured this would be a good game to pick up and get my turn-based strategy fix. I watched a co-worker play it a few times on trips up to Green Bay and it piqued my interest. I was not disappointed by this game. There are a ton of options for building armies and exploring the land (and of course ultimately vanquishing your foe).

I finally got GTA San Andreas in the mail (it took a full week AFTER they said it was shipped to arrive). It's pretty sweet so far...definitely captures the feel of the 90's gangsta flick. And I think I'll keep it (seeing that it only costs 40 to do so).

Anyway, I just got done finishing up the final requirements spec for my client. If you've never written requirements for an enterprise application, know that it is not a simple task. What this essentially means is that development can start once I get the client's approval on the budget. We've already come to an agreement there so it's essentially a formality.

I hope everyone's father's day was wonderful (whether celebrating for yourself or someone else). I'm about ready to pass out so I'll talk to all later
