GAMES: GameSpot GameFAQs MOVIES: Metacritic Movietome Comic-Con

Phew, the last days were stressful. I finished my master's thesis and had to deal with incredible stupid bugs in the program I wrote. They only occurred on faster machines than mine and I had a hard time testing. Today I could finally hand the thesis with the CD over to my university. I hope I can defend the thesis by the end of August. Else I would have to pay for the next semester. Well that doesn't mean that my work on the program is done already. It's good enough for my professor but not good enough for the company I made it for. I still have to build in a whole lot of features for better user friendliness. And this is just a prototype. I don't feel relaxed after all *sigh*.

Video Games Live logoVideo Games Live logoFor finishing the thesis my friend EiRoGGe had an awesome gift for me: tickets for the Video Games Life show. This better be good since one ticket costs almost 50 Euro. I'll report about it!

In the past weeks I played Secret Agent Clank. This game is mediocre. Remember when GS rated Tools of Destruction low because the game was too varied? I didn't agree back than but this game really feels to varied. You jump from character to character and task to task without getting into the flow. I reached the end boss today and I'm not sad that the game is over (or almost over - the boss is hard).

I also bought Soulcalibur 4. It looks good on EiRoGGe's HDTV^^ On my TV it looks just like SC3. I still have to practise a lot to be able to compete online. Does anyone of you have it for PS3?

I hope all of you are alright!

Congratulations for finishing your program although you don't feel relieved. After all there seems to be enough reason to party as you got tickets for the Video Games Life Show, too. Soul Calibur is a good installment seemingly, but I like Bleach more :-)

I'm thinking of getting SCIV for my 360... BUT I CAN'T STOP PLAYUN OKAMI, DUDETTE!!!! Why won't it just finish so that I can start playing other games? The world will never know.

I'd love to see Video Games Live The university stuff sounds really complex though; I'm so glad I decided to take a business course instead of IT. Programming would drive me crazy!

I bet that you and EiRoGGe had a blast at the Video Games Live show! I hope the best for your thesis. There's few things that I'm scared of more than "Senior Thesis"... alright maybe underwater knife fights might be a little scarier, but I will probably enjoy it more.

We will have a blast but it is still a week away
Being under water even without knifes does scare me enough^^
Good to see you back, my longnumbered friend.
