I've been busy.
<br>
<br>
So, the other day I was browsing around in Toys R Us. Not looking for anything in particular, just waiting on food at a nearby deli. As I was walking around this kid was showing off a Godzilla toy to his mom. Her first question was "what does it do?". It took every ounce of self control that I possess to not respond with "destroys Tokyo at seemingly random intervals". My question now is, did I do the right thing? I missed out on some comedy gold there.

All hands were killed in the resulting crash. There were 38 people on board. 25 American special operations personnel, five United States Army National Guard and Army Reserve crewmen, seven Afghan commandos, and one Afghan interpreter. A MWD (Military Working Dog) was also killed in the crash. I felt the need to post this. Helping to ensure that they are never forgotten.

I am in favour of this decision, but I am also cautious. Based on comments by Microsoft's Interactive Entertainment Business President Don Mattrick the decision was made based on gamer feedback. However, if the restrictions are this easy to change/remove, what is to keep them from re-implementing them later? The answer is <b>vigilance</b>. We, as gamers (or people against DRM and invasion of privacy (<i>more of that in a minute</i>)), need to continue to make our voices heard. Personally I don't want the kinect, but I do sorta want an xbone. There are games that are exclusive to Microsoft that I do want to play <i>I'm looking at you Dead Rising 3</i>. Thankfully there is recently introduced <a href="http://www.escapistmagazine.com/news/view/125192-We-Are-Watching-You-Legislation-Could-Affect-Xbox-One" target=_blank>Legislation</a> that, if passed, will change how the kinect camera is used to gather information, and giving the user greater control over it.
<br>
<br>
All that said this is still reason to celebrate. Previously gamers have been ignored (well mostly), but this proves what a united front can accomplish. I'd say that this can even be applied to non-gaming related things. If we dislike something we do not have to sit back and take it. If we come together and make our voices heard we <i>should</i> be able to beat anything.
<br>
<br>
On a complete side note I am totally geeking out over the E3 trailer for <b>The Order: 1886</b>. As a brand new IP it looks to be quite promising. Chick it out...

How awesome would it be if there were cartoon crossovers? I don't mean like where one or more characters from one series show up in another series, I'm talking something much more awesome. Like <b>G.I. Josie and the Thundercats</b>, a sequel could be <b>G.I. Josie and the SWAT Cats</b> . Or <b>Jabber Jawesome</b> (Jabber Jaw and the Street Sharks). Perhaps even including live action characters into it. Something like <b>Power Rangers Turbo Teen</b>. One of my personal favourites is <b>Let's get Danger Mouse</b> (Darkwing Duck and Danger Mouse). Ooh... maybe <b>Conan the Centurion(s)</b> where Conan gets asked to join the Centurions (man and machine, power extreme).
