I’m pro level at tennis! And advancing rapidly with the bowling (high score 197). Golf I haven’t touched yet, baseball is fun but takes too long, and boxing is a bit hit and miss (har) for me.

How a Bug Made Me a Better Programmer

1 March, 20091 March, 2009

This is the tale of a bug. A challenging bug I encountered some time ago, and which changed my career for the better. It was late 2004. I was lead multiplayer engineer on Goldeneye: Rogue Agent, a title which could charitably be described as mediocre, but I like to think…

School

Today was mini-Elbeno’s first day at school! He actually went in yesterday for an hour with Mrs Elbeno to get a feel for the place, but today was the first real day being dropped off and spending the whole morning there. He had a great time! In other news, Mrs…

E3 roundup

13 May, 200629 July, 2007

Another year, another E3, another photoset on flickr. Reports of booth babe bans were exaggerated (yay). But overall, a fairly lacklustre E3. I didn’t queue for the PS3 or the Wii. But I did come home with plenty of free stuff thanks to chatting up the booth babes and being…

    Do you have any recommendations for other games? Not being a gamer I'm not sure what to buy – so far I'm looking to get Red Blade and Zelda, I have Wii Play coming with the console.

    Nice! Congrats. I was given a chance this morning to join in on some Wii action at work, but I had to be a grown-up about it, and decline. Too much actual work to do.

    Wii Play I think is worth it for the bundled Wiimote. Red Steel doesn't seem to be that well reviewed. Rayman Raving Rabbids is getting good reviews. Wii Sports will keep you going for a while though!

    I'm a bowling pro now. High score 238! If only I were that good in real life (where breaking 100 is a good score).

    You are right about Wii Sports – only thing I've played so far though we only played for just over an hour. I got 206 on my 4th go at Bowling. It's a great console, the first one I've really enjoyed from the start, can't wait to play some more.
