Carlow IT
I'm a 19 year old student currently going on to my second year in Carlow IT in the Bachelor of Science (Honours) in Computer Games Development, a course that Microsoft fully supports and shaped so that students are fully trained to perform in the Games Industry and the Software and parts of Hardware Development out of college. This course has developed excellent students who have been in finals or won competitions in creating Video Game competitions. The most recent one is our 4th Years won the Quake competition, creating a game using their Dev tools and winning $10,000!
I play many games, mostly on the PC but some on the Xbox360 and the DS. I also play Warhammer 40,000 (thus explaining my picture). Currently trying to get through college without fail! WHILE LOOP FOR THE WIN!

Indrema inspired me to write a blog on writing blogs over the weekends. I think we should all write at least a blog. It'll be interesting and no doubt well written (mostly), seeing as it is coming from the Edge community.
What I'm most interested in, and I believe Indrema made a point on this, is that Dreamhunk should write a blog on the decline of console gaming. From the NES period to the consoles of today and possibly later on. It will be awsome, and it will include pictures and links backing up his discussion on explaining and backing up his points.

There has been a lot of talk on Cloud based gaming. With Fusion Render Cloud and the most publicised OnLive there has been a lot of talk about the future of the video game industry in terms of hardware development and retail.

I got my pre-ordered Special Edition of Dragon Age: Origins at GAME sold the day it was released, despite the fact I had it pre-ordered and told them that I was coming in the next day to get it.
Got to wait for another week to get one, where they will "hold on to it" until I arrive and pick it up.
Fuck ups.
EDIT: Congrats on the game
Yeah, something similiar happened to Demigod as well. It bombed, not solely due to an early release, but certainly played a role and it reflected in reviews!
FAIL!!!
ABSOLTE FUCKING FAIL!!!!!
Why can't they release the game all over the bloody world then if it's just "select" shops?!
God damn it, it's this shit that broke the Demigod servers when it was flooded by pirates and the servers weren't meant to be up and fully running!
Yeah, that's right, I went there. Fuck you Gamestop! I was a Beta tester for that game!!! >:O
God damn it!
I would like to meet these mystical people who cannot join a game from the server match list.
Same, I can't see the problem with this.
If we wanted the true Cobain experience then they should add a feature that he hangs himself after each song in the game, going out in style.
Now that would be tasteless.
