Episode 14 of the Co-Opticast is now live!

Nick and I recount our games of the preceding fortnight, talk about the top co-op gaming stories, review 50 Cent: Blood on the Sand, and wax poetic about cheesy movies only a nerd and/or gamer would love.

This week’s episode of the podcast almost didn’t reach the airwaves!  There was an issue with Audacity that caused us to lose half of our recording, but thanks to some magic (and leftybrown of The Married Gamers) we managed to recover most of our lovely podcast.

This week includes the more or less finalized version of our new segmented format: We review Dawn of War 2 and answer some reader mail, as well as discuss Left 4 Dead’s DLC and impressive sales figures.  Check it out here and enjoy our thirteenth episode!

Hello, gentle reader(s)!  With PAX and work keeping my ass busy, I’ve been letting old, terrible habits resurface!  I shouldn’t neglect this site any longer!

In exciting news, I helped launch a new podcast over at Co-Optimus!  The first episode of the Co-Opticast was posted online today.  It stars yours truly and Nick Puleo, the Managing Editor of Co-Optimus and Editor In Chief of Evil Avatar.  At 30 minutes, it’s light on fluff and moderately packed with content.  It’s both of our first attempts at creating something like this, so any comments are welcome. Either here or any of the myriad locations I’ve pimped it.

Well, in addition to attending PAX this weekend (see post below), our landlord shifted our move-in date for our new unit to Monday!  Awesome!

It’s a good thing that I’ll be in Seattle- it gave me a chance to call in a bunch of favors.

I should have pictures and art from PAX posted soon- you’ll get to see a bunch of people wearing the t-shirts I designed for both EvAv *and* Co-Optimus.

Thanks to the efforts of my boss, myself and the host of web designers we have at work, we’ve managed to convince the higher-ups to redesign the company website.  This should be a great opportunity to show off our skills and convince ‘em that we actually know what we’re talking about.

Sorry about the site being so inactive lately, I haven’t had much free time to dedicate to it.

In other news, I will be attending this year’s Penny Arcade Expo (PAX) in Seattle at the end of this month - I’ll be representing both Evil Avatar and Co-Optimus.com.

I designed some shirts for both sites, I’ll probably post some pics in a separate entry.

Did this for a friend.  The Japanese is (hopefully) their equivalent word for “gamer”.
