Game Developers Conference...
In a little over twelve hours from now I leave once again for the annual Game Developers Conference . This year there are a few things different.. One, it's earlier in the year than previously.. Two, it's in San Francisco rather than San Jose this year.. Read More...

World of Warcraft - Game of the... Months?
Now, I'm not much of what you might call a "MMORPG" type gamer. I've tried many of them in the past, and never really got into them at all. That all changed with World of Warcraft, which I found engaging and fun right from the start.. I was in beta for Read More...

I guess I have to blame it on Kent..
Since I wouldn't have known about this site without his post blaming someone else.. It's a vicious circle no doubt. At least I got a "good" score.. Depending on how you look at it I suppose. =) Read More...

Interview..
Jason Olson recently conducted an interview with me about various Managed DirectX topics.. I imagine some people might enjoy that kind of stuff. Oh, and also, before anyone asks, I don't expect to agree to anymore interviews in the short term. =) Read More...

Who would have thought road trips involved so much driving?
I guess I should have realized that since I did use Streets And Trips 2005 to actually plan the trip, but I'm here to tell you.. Reading about a 2-day 19 hour one way drive is a lot different than actually *doing* said drive. That being said though, once Read More...

Like Greg mentioned earlier this week, my birthday is rapidly approaching (oh, happy birthday to Greg too!), so since i rarely get to go on vacation, I decided to take a road trip.. I'll be gone for about a week.. Will barely have access to a computer, Read More...

Moving Day!!!
Hard to believe that in a little less than 20 hours I'll be moved into our new house. While the wait between signing the papers to have the house constructed (November of last year) until now has seemed to take eons upon eons to get here, in reality, Read More...

Tampa Bay Lightning - Stanley Cup Champions..
As a sports fan, I'm what you might call a “bandwagon jumper” (a cardinal sin for a 'true sports fan' i'm told). I have my favorite teams just like everyone else, but once they've lost, I have no problems with picking a new team to cheer for Read More...

Time flies when a house is being built..
While in reality it's only been a few months since I first mentioned I was having a new house built, in my mind it's been decades. I'm quite anxious to move into the new place, and all the waiting around is agonizing to say the least. Aside from the fact Read More...

Hey, it is difficult to write a book?
Ever since I published my first book , this question seems to come up a lot. In all honesty, I asked that same question a few times to other author's I knew before I wrote that book. Now that my second book is coming out in a few short weeks, I figured Read More...

It's a revolution...
Ok, I hate to admit it, but the fact is I totally love the Dance Dance Revolution Ultramix game for the XBox.. It's addicitive, upbeat, and best of all you get a workout! How many 'video games' can you play and work up a sweat after an hour or so? I remember Read More...

Books, Books, and more Books..
For me personally, it's great to see a number of books coming out using Managed DirectX (even if I am the one writing some of them). Like Dave already mentioned in his blog he has a book on .NET gaming coming out around the same time as this years GDC Read More...
