So Now I Officially Work For Bit-tech!

Yup, instead of freelance I was offered a job and took it I start full time in Feb If anyone knows a good place near Ascot, lmk.

NBS will be back next week, sometime. We were going to do one over new year but that got shot to shit with me not being able to talk. Brett is at CES this week, lucky bastard, so hopefully we’ll have all the low down and dirty from the show floor. Obviously, omitting the censorship: if it was shit, we aren’t afraid to tell you.

Gears of War on a 42″ 1080p LCD is the kingshit of visual goodness. I have to put in more time and I’m hoping it’s still in the office when I get back there in a few days. I’m not a huge fan of the “a button for everything” feature, it’s frustrating as hell, and RE4 had a better aiming system but it’s still an entertaining game. Still not better than Dead Rising though. I tried the wireless wheel out for the 360 and it’s really hard to get a hang of; you basically have to reinvent your driving style from scratch. I need to try some other racing games (Forza 360 should be soon!!) to see how they handle it instead.

Bioshock is coming out within days and I’m like a fucking kid at Christmas. It’s been years since I first played System Shock 2 (it WAS a better FPS than Half-Life) and I can’t wait. Sadly, I know I’m going to be disappointed because I’m too hyped about it.

Oh, and DFI’s RD600 board is fantastic. As a general rule of thumb I seem to fall in love with all LanParty boards, but this is just an overclockers dream, despite the needed PhD in BIOS option deciphering.
