Finishing – Call of Duty Classic (Xbox Live Arcade)
I did it! I made it to the next checkpoint! I am no longer stuck where I was stuck! I am now stuck at a new place! I do not know how many people it takes to run a battle ship, but I do know I have killed them a thousand times over. So, so, frustrating. It’s really awesome when I advance some so I have something to write about. But, I latterly moved forty-five feet! That does not make for good reading. As the writer of that “not good reading”, that makes this job hard.

The problem is that beating this boat mission has become an obsession with me. I don’t even want to play the other games I have been working on. I want to play Torchlight and Amnesia, but I have to beat Call of Duty Classic first! It bothers me that the game is beating me! Games can’t beat me! I beat games! Doesn’t this game know what this site is about?

I am getting good at long range head shots with a rifle that has no scope. I really have to finish this game. It’s… gurrr.


Talking – Pen Fights GamePad (podcast)
The first episode of Pen Fights GamePad is out! You can download it here. Dan is working on getting the iTunes and Zune (you are welcome Windows Phone people) feeds squared away! It was so fun to do. Go download it and listen to it. You can give me feedback in the comments below. Tell me what you think. How can we improve? If you don’t want to comment, you can send me an email! I would love to hear from you.


Kickstart – The Sibling (movie)
Guess what? That’s right, there is a Kickstart that needs your help! “What?”, you say, “How can this be?”. Well, this kickstart is a little different. My brother edited the movie. It seems to be stuck in this strange limbo. It’s done, but it needs money to get published. I did a little font work for it so you can just tell yourself that the money you give is going right to my fat-cat pockets. I will buy Jumbo Jets and drink Cristal! Maybe I will even foreclose on some houses. HA HA! I am mad with all this money you gave to this Kickstart — Just a reminder, I will not actually see any of this money.

So, come on! Let’s go over there and help them out. You will know that you helped get a scary movie to the market. You can tell your friends that you are in the film industry. I do expect Did-Not-Finish.com to appear in the credits for this pitch. What? Trailer Link! That’s what.

Well, off to play some games.

Remember this?I got this game free with my purchase of a video card.
I was instantly in love. Good or Bad, I now play all the Splinter Cell games.
