Up late talking games & writing? You're...

Not much to report today.
Things were pretty low key as the wife and I each finished our last gigs before my son arrives tomorrow. Made a little lunch, tidied up the place a bit, nothing big.

We had meant to go see Sweeney Todd tonight, but for the second night in a row we both found ourselves a little too pooped to pop and decided to stay in. Heard nothing but good about it, and if any readers have comments, I'd love to hear them.

Games-wise, we've been trying to do a lot more co-op lately. I had picked out a handful of last-gen games I never got around to and we decided on giving Dungeons and Dragons Heroes on Xbox a whirl. It plays out like a standard dungeon crawl so far, but the graphics are surprisingly good for the Xbox and I appreciate the amount of short cutscenes that've been added to spice things up. It's nothing to rave about, but it's good and solid. We'll move on to Lego Star Wars II and Resident Evil Chronicles later on. Army of Two is what I'm really waiting for, though.

Last but not least, I'm about 10 minutes away from sending in my first official submission to a real-deal publisher. Their website says not to expect to hear anything for at least three months which seems to me like a crazy amount of time to wait, but I guess that's the way the game is played....
