It's been a long time... a very long time

Indeed, it's been a long time since I last posted here at the very first blog I created way back in 2003 (early days of the blogging phenom, btw). Since first creating a Blogger blog, I created a blog using bloki blogging platform (since gone kaput) and, of course, several blogs using the WordPress platform (some by using the free hosting and templates at www.worpress.com and others by downloading the WordPress program from www.wordpress.org and then developing various blogs my own hosted site(s)).



I also have gotten into console gaming after formerly being quite the snob about the superiority of computer gaming. Since purchasing a PlayStation 3 gaming console I've found myself becoming increasingly enthusiastic about the simplicity of console gaming (i.e. not needing to endlessly upgrade components in order to play the latest computer games, nor having to endlessly install updates to said games and their engines in order for them to run properly). There's a real pleasure and absence of anxiety in knowing one can pop the latest gaming dvd into one's console and knowing it will work perfectly from the get go.

As well, I've found many PS3 exclusive games which are excellent, the least of which being the Uncharted series (very much looking forward to the upcoming Uncharted 3 on 11/11/11).

One draw back (spoiler alert: no longer a draw back) with the PS3 initially was that my favourite gaming company, Valve, was not a fan of the PS3 system and for years had no interest in producing content for it. I'm very glad to find this has finally changed.

Although cynics may say this change in attitude toward the PS3 is simply a money-grab by Valve because it can sell its Steam game delivery system through the PlayStation Network, Valve itself is saying that it now believes it can create great games using the PS3 architecture after finally recruiting team members who are skillful with the PS3 platform.

Valve's change of heart (wise decision) has me heading the store soon to purchase a copy of Portal 2 for the PS3 (btw, when you buy the PS3 version you also get the PC version "free").

Anyhow, I've also been watching the new tv series The Killing - "Who Killed Rosie Larsen?" - on AMC. And thus, I get to the impulse to make this posting...



One of the stars of The Killing is Michelle Forbes (wiki pictures don't look like her), who plays Mitch Larsen, Rosie's mom. Michelle is the voice for Dr. Judith Mossman in Half-Life 2, Half-Life 2: Episode One, and Half-Life 2: Episode Two.
