Was just checking Unscripted 360 as i try to do as often as possible, and noticed Deacon posted a new video trailer for Army Of Two.  So I did what every other ‘web journalist’ does, stole his video and put it on my page - but at least I am sourcing him

This video is a direct cut scene from a video sequence in the game, about halfway through the game if I recall from when I got to play it back in October, ironically Deacon was the one who sent me to Montreal to check it out as a represenative of Unscripted 360 - ever since that day I have been waiting for the game to come out.

thanks deacon

Another Monday, another status report.  This week seems to be a pretty big entry, after looking it over I seemed to have gotten quite a bit of gaming in, and even a little coding.  I also threw up a little section about me/my family as a person rather than a gamer - for those of you that really do actually want to know more about the guy behind the gamertag.  Hopefully you actually like it, otherwise I am wasting quite a bit of time typing all this stuff up!

Well I am back and in one piece after my trip to Montreal to check out Army of Two.  You can read the recap over at Unscripted 360 forums - since I went as a represenative of U360.  You can also check out some of the pictures I took here on my gallery.  This was an amazing trip, and glad I could be a part of it

As a represenative of Unscripted360 I will be attending the EA Canada Army of Two Community event.  Similar to the gamerscoreblog tour that I drove too back in May.  This is a bit different, being its an event with a specific schedule, an all day event, and all related to only the Army of Two game.  I am excited beyond belief, and very thankful that Deacon gave me this opportunity. 

I fly out tomorrow morning, and will be flying home friday afternoon.  So if you don’t see me online and about - thats why

Unscripted360.com is having a sports giveaway spectacular.  Every Monday in October Deacon will post a message on his site and you just have to post a reply to it, or msg him via Xbox Live, then simply cross your fingers, pray, beg deacon - do whatever it is you feel will increase your odds before 8PM CST.  Each monday someone will get a free EA game, and on the 29th he is giving away 2 in honor of his birthday (Happy Birthday Deacon).  Here is the breakdown he posted on his site for the upcoming weeks.

That’s right folks, I did not attend PAX 2007 - but was able to make it to Kielbasa Fest 2007.  I might not have been lucky enough to see all those cool up and coming games and rub elbows with all those other great xbox community sites owner and podcaster - but I did get to eat meat shoved into a casing and smoked. 

All joking aside looking back I am somewhat sad I didn’t take the trip to PAX this year - perhaps another year.  If you haven’t visited these sites all ready I would suggest you check out unscripted360 and XBLRadio, both friends of mine that DID attend PAX and giving you their take on the trip - if you want to know about Kielbasa fest however - I am your man!

Thanks Deaconblade 360 (Unscripted 360) and Official Xbox Magazine (Future US)

Check out the latest episode, some great info on the Xbox Rewards program, and some community responses to the release of the xbox elite. I am one of those responders, can’t miss me - I am the one that sounds more serious then a History Professor at 8am.

Well this blog is hosted on the same site as 360friendspot.com. If you didn’t the site performing a bit slower then usual it is because we got some serious media coverage about our site and tools for a change, which drove a TON of traffic our way.

The unscripted interview was completed and available Here, in addition to that we were Dug which was picked up by xbox360fanboy.

Traffic has seemed to slow down a bit, and all of our sites are back to functioning again. It was exciting to say the least - and we have picked up quite a few more Live Eye Members, and hopefully some more active members for the forums.

PS. If you listen to the interview, dont be to harsh - it was probably the most nervous I have ever been in my life.
